Unrelated to pickup lines, I seem to have inspired about half my office to eat oatmeal, judging by the oatmeal cannisters with people's names magic-markered on them sitting on the shelf in the kitchen.

We had oatmeal this morning. With sliced bananas! Go Team Oatmeal!

My favorite twist on the pick-up line was in Homicide...Stan Bolander meets the Aussie medical examiner and says "What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?" And she pauses over a dead guy and says "Looking for Mr. Right."

Beautiful!

Read, sj. The closets will wait.

OK, here's a question. You know how you can take your bra off while leaving your shirt on by undoing the clasp, shrugging your arms through, and then pulling it out the arm hole or bottom of your shirt?

If you wear a bra, I mean.

Is this action:
1. Totally hot!
2. Tacky.

I also had delicious oatmeal! With raisins and cranberries!

Why are you taking the bra off, Raq? I'd think that's the kicker.

the tacky v. hot bra questions, like so many things, depends on the context. Is the person doing it specifically to titllate? If yes, then, probably tacky. Is the person doing it because her bra is poking at her and she's watching TV and doesn't want to get up and the only other person there is her SO? Then I'd say just an everyday clothing removal, like taking off socks.

Why does this make it probably tacky?

I think it depends on what music is playing.

To me, it's tacky because...it's not hot?

I'm with tommyrot. A 70s soundtrack, or a powerballad, would probably crank up the tackometer.

Although, that said, there are some people for whom I can't imagine this action to be NOT hot, regardless of context. I mean, Eliza Dushku removing her bra...I don't know how that could be a bad thing ever.

Nope.
