Thanks for being our guinea pig by testing those pickup lines and telling us the results!
I can't believe that the girls you went up to were so mean.
Not all of them were mean *grins*. Now that you mention it, I was a guinea pig...so here's the conclusion.
Pick-up lines rarely if ever work. There are several factors that will lead to you picking up or not, including (but not limited to):
* Appearance (both yours and your target)
* Horniness (as before)
* Delivery (my success was based primarilly on my two modes of delivery)
* Originality (barring obviously creepy or offensive lines)
* Biology (there are factors here, don't ask me to list them)
* Location (some places are more famous for picking up)
* Atmosphere (a wedding or party works better than a church meeting, though I have heard of some successes there)
* Charm (be yourself)
* Social Status (let's be brutal, being a geek is actually better than being a jock/hoon etc, never exactly figured out why)
* Economic Status (Money talks, however, be sensitive, showing off in Australia is not nice)
And so on and so forth. Now, for some fun.
This thread:
* Was started by someone on the lowest social run of their school.
* Began as a joke.
* Made 'Davriel' a very popular figure at my school, though few knew of his identity.
* This thread was started by someone who is considered the Anti-Christ by his school (I went through the Catholic Education system).
* This thread actually has been of use to people studying social interactions between different genders.
* Contains my favorite pick up lines, ironically, I did not enter them.
* Is one of the few threads on BoS that has minimal e-bashing.
*Davriel proceeds to salute each and every person who posted on this thread*
Sadly, I will not be posting on this thread for some time, so if you want to contact me, drop me a message. Keep the lines rolling!
And remember, where there's a will, there's a way to get laid.
