I carry round a lighter for that purpose actually.

Can anyone think of a response to a request for a lighter that could be a decent chat up line?

*blushes furiously at the fact that she once replied to the line "do you have a lighter?" with "no. But I can set you on fire"*


Oh god why.

"Hey, nice shirt" works every time. Unless they're not wearing a shirt. In which case it doesn't.

Is it me, or does that line have a vague nod to pyromania?

A friend of mine's long term boyfriend pulled her with the line "I like your top. is it nylon?"

[Shameless SJ Spoiler]

my husband used a cracker on me (not literally, i hate christmas) and it obviously worked.

he asked 'my mates think i've pulled, have i?'

you may pity me now, alas i fell for it... not sure who is worse, him for using it, or me for falling for it. hang on i already know the answer.

[PJ Hannah B-R]

I think the only thing my boyfriend used on me that was remotely "linelike" was "will you still talk to me tomorrow?"

Bless him to heaven and back again. He's ace.

So basically, to get to know someone you like:  

[list]Avoid them
Don't look at them
Don't talk to them
Find out very little about them[list]

I believe I have that particular modus operandi patented.

I still believe it *could* work if you're Eric Bana or someone...


I have a mate who used to used to tell women about his property on the Med, before taking them back to his houseboat on Hoo Marina (medway Estuary) and now lives in the mean streets of LA. (Little 'ampton.)

[quote=Bishop_Don_Marco_Rock]They often do involve people drinking and drunkeness, however:

[list]* I don't drink

* I wasn't made feel as if I should drink or that I should by others drinks

* Everyone was still decent and well-behaved (well, mostly)

* Only one or two people were ever very drunk

* Most importantly, I always enjoyed myself[list]


Agreed on all points!!! I've never had a drink in my life and aside from my closest friends, Joinees have by and large been the only people to be accepting of that fact. I still have a great time when I'm at meets or out with Joinees. If I'm ever anywhere that I'm not enjoying myself...I leave and find somewhere I will.

[7. Rem]

firstly, the warm water and lemon thing, really wasnt the dumbest thing i could've said. and if you don't believe that, well then you'll just have to trust me.

secondly, i have never, ever, EVER. managed to chat anyone up. ever.

but i do have some utterly killer lines.
i prefer my responses to the knock backs tho'

'd'you fancy a dance?'
'no, please go away'
'i'm sorry , you must've misheard me. i said you've got a fat arse'

etc, etc

[Joinee Andy J]

I can't share any advice, I'm generally quite awkward.
But that can work in it's own right.
Shame it's natural and not planned though... damn the lack of control...

[FJN]

I find voyeurism particularly rewarding. Hence me being indoors at 10.20pm on a Friday night...

[joinee varma]

occasionalyl dutch courage will lead me to ask them for a dance but more often than not an answer can be yielded from just going up to them and holding your hand out indicating a dance.

they will respond accordingly!

Funny, I had a chat up line actually work today. What's even more amazing - I didn't even mean it to be a chat up line. I was at the local office supply store buying a few things. Girl at the till was rather attractive. Our conversation:

Me (after paying): Oh, and by the way, I really need to thank you.
Her: Thank me? Why?
Me: For giving me hope again.
Her: Hope?
Me: Yeah. I moved to the area about a month ago - you are the first truly attractive female I've met. I have hope again that I'll be able to find a beautiful girl down here.

At this point I made my dramatic exit. Unfortunately, I had to slink back into the store to pick up my car keys which I had left by the register - definitely not cool. However, when I got back inside she handed me my keys and a post-it with her phone number...

[Joinee Goldy]

Woooo hoooo, Go Gac

Updates please on a regular basis young man

[Gold Joinee Rothwell]

That wasn't any kind of line...... i was serious...

a friend of mine once told me about a girl who he went to go and chat up...but then decided she wasn't very nice...

Ian: Hello, y'allreet?
Girl: tut...listen mate...don't try and chat me up..i don't do lines.
Ian: All i said was hello.... If i was going to give you a chat up line i would have said.."Nice shoes, fancy a f**k...(he then looked down at her feet)....but there's no chance of that now is there?"
*walsk off..

still makes me smile..

my advice is be yourself...

Rem said:

maybe we should sit in a park untill the early hours drinking warm water and lemon?

I think *this* is a quality line!

Does it work for you, Rem?

H.

[FJN]

Or some gin, a segment of lemon, and some tonic water?

going to run that this is moderated as well?

[Joinee BTA Jim]

I'm sure you do. People like you always do.

See you around.

[PJ Hannah B-R]

I don't mind you being abusive to me Jim. But I'd really like some reasoning why. I think that's fair. If you're not prepared to give reasons then i think being abusive to me on a public forum is ever so slightly out of order.

If you'd like to give me reasons then please do.

[Joinee Wilkins]

Oh Goody Gumdrops! I'd have hated to have missed the argument.

*applies knuckle dusters*

Right, first off. You claim that basing everything around drinking is very un-joinee-like (in affect) I think that becoming insulting to people you don't know but probably follow the same belief as you is pretty un-joinee. And that doesn't just apply to you, Jim.

Secondly, I drink, but I know people that don't. We always have a proper chuckle (maybe at me as opposed to with me) I don't force them to drink and in return, I try not to vomit on them if i get a bit too squiffy. Happy days all round I think you'll find.

Thirdly, I generally go with the occupation of a marble designer, should a fine filly ask.

I'm not greatly impressed with how quickly some people (yes, people plural) took this thread downhill. If you think that might include you, read back over the thread and have a look at the moderations I've done here.

To summarize what I'm thinking at the moment: If we were to artificially divide the forum user population into two groups, "those that Matt knows" and "those that Matt doesn't really know", then neither set should be swearing at anyone.

[PJ Hannah B-R]

Fair enough. May I apologise. I stand by my comment but should have used an alternative word.

Sorry Matt.

(you rock)

[Joinee Rufous]

Given that this is at least the second personality clash of the past couple of weeks, can I just take this opportunity to say TAKE THIS CRAP OFFLINE before this forum goes the way of the last one.

I'm tired of watching people I like squabbling with each other.
