Interesting Pick-Up Lines

I’ve heard a few awful lines in my day–by comparison, these actually don’t seem so bad. Nevertheless, they were in a Match.com article called “The Worst Pick-Up Lines,” written by Matt Christensen.

Here are the three worst ones, IMHO:

“I was at an office party when a guest of a coworker introduced himself and said, ‘Blueberries or strawberries?’ Confused, I asked what he meant, and he replied, ‘I just want to know what kind of pancakes to make you in the morning.’ He said it with such a straight face that it was like a scene in a funny movie. I didn’t eat breakfast with him, but I did give him my number.” —Jan, 33, Cleveland, OH

“This guy who was so not my style came over to me and my friends and asked: ‘Do you happen to know how much a polar bear weighs?’ We said no and kept walking, and then he said, ‘Well, it’s enough to break the ice. Hi, I’m Brian.’ We all cracked up and kept talking to him.” —Charity, 29, Cincinnati, OH

“This random guy came up to me at a party, looked me straight in the eyes and said, ‘Baby, you’re sexier than socks on a rooster.’ I had absolutely no idea what he meant, but I thought it was funny and I liked how unusual it was. It got us talking, trying to figure out what that line meant!” —Holly, 19, Milford, OH

Here are (what I think are) the three best ones:

“I fought tooth and nail with a guy over a parking space and won. When I came back out to my car, there was a note on it that said, ‘I like your style. Call me.’ It was very unexpected, and I loved the approach. See, it pays to be a lover and a fighter.” —Lynn, 36, Boston, MA

“I was at a local bar one night, and this guy sat next to me and said, ‘Would it freak you out if I said that I’ve already told my mother about you?’ I said, ‘No, why?’ Then he told me that he’d actually stepped outside, called his mother and asked her how to approach me. I thought it was adorable that he was a mama’s boy.” —Michelle, 25, Erie, PA

“I first met my current boyfriend at a bar, and after we introduced ourselves, he said, ‘I adore you.’ He then drunkenly went on to catalog why he adored me—from the way I ordered drinks to the way I brushed hair out of my eyes. It was sort of scary that he’d been watching me, but what took it out of stalker mode and made it flattering was his sweetness and sincerity.” —Melissa, 27, Brooklyn, NY
