What you said, Jess.
So I'm not lazy for not wanting to risk breaking a limb or getting into a car accident?
Not so much, no.
Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

But then it's distressing to me to hear about when they work.
It's always been distressing to me to hear about, or worse yet see first hand, the many, many success stories of picking up women by being a jackass. I've always felt the success of the jackass strategy said really crappy things about us as people.

I just talked to the ever so practical Teacup Guy. He made me feel better and listed all of the things that I should keep in mind when going into work on Friday.

You know, often I think it's the guy and not the line. Because even the cheesiest line can be pulled off with the most irony and I'd fall for it. Or the wrong guy can put forth the most sincere sentiment, and I just end up looking at him funny.
And vice versa.
There is no magic beyond self confidence, a bit of humility, and respect. If you're hitting on me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So, is the pickup line what finally gets one to agree to go to bed, or is it what starts the are-we-gonna-go-to-bed banter?

The latter. It's what you say to Random Person In Bar to start the conversation.
