LINES

Yea gods, have I actually never written anything 
yet here on the subject of pickup lines?  Weird.  

Anyway, here is the benefit of my extensive research 
on the literature on this subject:                       _How To Pick Up Girls_
                                                         by Eric Weber, and 
  (1) The best "lines" are spontaneous                   it's sequel. 
      and are related to what's                           	       
      going on in the immediate situation.                    One of my 
                                                              favorite pieces 
  (2) But if you draw a complete blank on something           of advice, is 
      to say, you will need to fall back on a                 the suggested    
      canned, memorized line.                                 line "Hey, do 
                                                              you want a 
  (3) A good line does not sound like you're                  Qualude?" 
      trying to be clever, it doesn't even                              
      have to be creative.                                       It's possible 
                                                                 that these   
      The two most popular lines are supposed                    works are   
      to be:                                                     somewhat  
             "Can I buy you a drink?"				 dated.
             "Do you want to dance?" 				       
                                     
      The fact that they're well known 
      and familiar is what's good about them. 
      
      There's a great lack of 
      accepted courtship rituals 
      in American culture, and 
      you might as well use what 
      little exists.

environment where it is not 
*possible* to talk?))
