It's still kinda early for me (being that it is only 6:29 in the morning), but it helps that I have a snow day today!! Yeah this is our third straight snow day because the wind chill is almost at -20*

Harrison: " Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir? "
Wasn't that something you asked me lastnight....... ha ha ha ha
I'm just messing with you sorry!! I wish I could've talked longer lastnight, but I was beat and I thought I would have to attend school today...NOT!!

Specialagentjim: Spelt was in the correct form.......my added two cents sticking behind Harrison, I would have to he's much taller then me anyway!!

Yeslek50: Yeah books always have emotions the later you get at night, but books have conflicting emotions with you around 3:30 in the morning and you still can't figure out how to solve a trig problem you've been staring at for 2 hours!! That is when it starts talking back to you while you sit there and use profound languages while yelling at it!!

i don't take French - but this is a line my friend taught me
and I said it to this French guy as a joke/dare - so it might not be
a pick up line, but it sure gets you interesting looks after you
whisper it seductively in his ear and walk away as he looks confused:

"Je a pataloon"

of course some other people respond with "too bad"
:rolleyes:

o by the way, it means "I have pants"

We're not to sure wether we counted the overseas ballots or not in my county. A classmate of mine came up with this one and hes a rather interesting character "Yo quiero su manos en mis pantolones." (Don't exactly remember how to spell pants in Espanol...there's a Spanish-English Dictionary around here somewhere)

6:29 eh? Yeah I'd be fast asleep for at least 2 more hours (get up around 8:30, be at school for 8:55)...But, if it were a "its too cold out" day, I'd be asleep until like 11 :p

BTW, never once have I had a "its too cold day" (ive had a few snow days over the years)....and its been -20 here for like the last week (its a warm -11 today), and I've been ay school every day.

As for "Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?", I beleive you answered yes....may times...lol :p

My school starts @ 7:35am, and I live half an hour away from my school by car! My school gets out at 2:40 and I get home somewhere around 4:30-5:00 by bus (Depending on who's on the bus that day...6:29 I gotta be out the door!

Oh, and down here in florida, the only day's that we get off randomly for here is hurrican days...Can't ya picture us all?

The Ohio stuff came from me asking "What state was round on both sides and high in the middle?"

Seeing as we were ALREADY TALKING ABOUT OHIO, I kinda assumed that someone would instantly answer my joke.

The answer is of course Ohio.

oHIo (round on both sides [o], and high [HI] in the middle).

Aloha,

I don't have any interesting stories about guys trying to pick me up at a competition. However, at 25's Brunswick Eruption this year I told a member of 222 that I would Lei him for his pineapple. Of course, it was said with a little more enthusiasm than was needed. =) By the end of the day I ended up lei-ing him twice for his plastic pineapple. I was happy. And that pineapple will be coming with me everywhere this year. =)

there is no point to pick up lines in my opinion, i mean if you want to talk to someone you can find a way. You dont need some lame thing to say to them. And i mean if you base any kind of relationship on a single line in the first place, then there are problems...

exactly! that's why they're LAME!
they rock! i LOVE bad pick up lines
as long as they're not demeaning - but funny ones
that make you just say 'what???' and then laugh
i think if you get someone with a good sense of humor
they rock
but if it's a line like 'hey baby -...' in some sleazy voice - no
I'm not a baby, i'm a big girl now -- don't talk to me like that
but I don't believe I've had an experience like that
If I did I'd probably look at them weird and laugh anyway.

By all means......... j/k :p

Seriously tho, I think ppl use "pick-up" lines just as some way to start a conversation. It's kinda wierd to just go up to a girl (or guy) and just start talking....you need to have something to say first.

I usually try to say something witty....but it usually just ends up sounding dumb....ah well....I'm doomed to be single.

X's and O's are good but is X kisses and O hugs or is it the other way around?

Laughter is a very good sign as long as they're not laughing at you. Being able to generate laughter through wit, humor in comments are apart of some pick up lines like.....

"Are you cold?" Girl standing there with goosebumps......but I did let her borrow my jacket and get to go up to the forbidden 9th floor (only girls and YTL Faculty were allowed there)....walked her back to her room (and got my jacket back...only reason why I was allowed to do that!). Later, danced with her at the party but sadly the e-mail address I was given doesn't work. :(

Personally I think pick up lines are stupid, if you want to talk to someone, opposite sex or not, just walk up to them and say hello. "Hi" "Hello?" "I'm will :D ( <-- big dorky smile ) and you are? " "Im so and so" "nice to meet ya" continue on with conversation.

thats how I've made most of my friends, I ended up going to homecoming with a girl that I had met in line for the VR ride thing at the great lakes after party =) Using 'hello' as your pick up line works...

hhaha true.. sometimes i think pick-up lines are for laughing purposes... the funny thing is... i usually ask people what grade level are they before i ask him/her for thier name...

purpledaisy

14-02-2003, 12:07

what? you ask their grade? *dramatic gasp* ageist!!! lol j/k

besides, hello does work, but come on, life would be less hilarious if everyone started friendships that way! What horror stories we would miss out on about how "I meant to say [insert normal comment here] but it came out [insert horribly embarassing comment here]." What priceless introductions we would lose! *sigh* besides, we all need a laugh, and these provide good ones. ;)

14-02-2003, 13:11

I have learned to ask age and grade level after some very odd experiences and close calls. but purpledaisy is right with out pick up lines and and temporary brain spasms where you say the dumbest things that u could possibly say just because you are in complete aw of the person you are talking to there wouldn't be any funny stories and there wouldn't be this thread. so never stop the pick up lines just saying "hello" is always good, so is a laugh
I know this might be a bit off the subject of this thread but what are some stories of things you meant to say to a girl/guy but u said something else

I don't know, but pretty much everyone in the south (Louisiana) still shakes hands when meeting someone new. Hmm. It must be that southern manners thing. We're quite the odd birds in the south...

well, this one you KNOW a smartypants used
a kid in my school, when there was some trip said to a girl

"so, what's your GPA?"
needless to say, she walked away really fast,
i believe his fallow up line was
"What did you get on your SATs"

actually, the guy really doesn't try,

Yeah, the south stops at Atlanta basically, (some consider north FLA to be in the south, but i disagree).

Our "manners" include cutting you off on the highway, or even small roads, running you over if you decide to cross the street, even if you had the right of way, running red lights, turning left from the right hand lane, cursing at you in spanish or creole (sp), and genereally not having respect for you in any way shape or form ;)

Hehe. I definitely remember these things from when I lived near Ft. Lauderdale. Certainly not like Louisiana, where all elementary and middle schools force kids to say ma'am and sir, and people could permanently be labeled as unforgivably rude for not holding a door for someone, and you can't walk down a street without someone you know pulling over and asking "Honey, do you need a ride?" goodness, i just realized how off-topic I am.

Here's the scoop:

The girls started talking about their halo's.

I said that some girls are evil (so no halo's for them).

Then people started talking about evilness in small doses.

Now.......Evilness in fun is good, then then, its just playing around and not actually being evil (yay for logic...)

Girls/Guys can be downright evil/mean/grumpy/etc...and thats never fun....I think to some extent everyone has at least small horns under their halo's...

excerpt of something i found amusing

"You are working on the premise of duality," the Christian
explains. "That for example there is life and then there's
death; a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept
of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir,
science cannot even explain a thought. It uses electricity
and magnetism but has never seen, much less fully understood
them. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant
of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing.
Death is not the opposite of life, merely the absence of it."

The young man holds up a newspaper he takes from the desk
of a neighbour who has been reading it. "Here is one of the
most disgusting tabloids this country hosts, professor. Is
there such a thing as immorality?"
"Of course there is, now look..."
"Wrong again, sir. You see, immorality is merely the absence
of morality. Is there such thing as injustice? No. Injustice
is the absence of justice. Is there such a thing as evil?"
The Christian pauses. "Isn't evil the absence of good?"

The professor's face has turned an alarming color. He is so
angry that he is temporarily speechless. The Christian
continues.

"If there is evil in the world, professor, and we all agree
there is, then God, if he exists, must be accomplishing a
work through the agency of evil. What is that work, God
is accomplishing?The Bible tells us it is to see if each one
of us will, of our own free will, choose good over evil."

The professor bridles. "As a philosophical scientist, I
don't vie this matter as having anything to do with any
choice; as a realist, I absolutely do not recognize the
concept of God or any other theological factor as being
part of the world equation because God is not
observable."

"I would have thought that the absence of God's moral code
in this world is probably one of the most observable
phenomena going," the Christian replies.

"Newspapers make billions of dollars reporting it every
week! Tell me, professor. Do you teach your students that
they evolved from a monkey?"
"If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process,
young man, yes, of course I do."

"Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?"
The professor makes a sucking sound with his teeth and
gives his student a silent, stony stare.

"Professor. Since no-one has ever observed the process of
evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process
is an on-going endeavor, are you not teaching your opinion,
sir? Are you now not a scientist, but a priest?"

"I'll overlook your impudence in the light of our
philosophical discussion. Now, have you quite finished?"
the professor hisses.

"So you don't accept God's moral code to do what is
righteous?"

"I believe in what is - that's science!"

"Ahh! SCIENCE!" the student's face splits into a grin.
"Sir, you rightly state that science is the study of
observed phenomena. Science too is a premise which is
flawed..."

"SCIENCE IS FLAWED..?" the professor splutters.

The class is in uproar.

The Christian remains standing until the commotion has
subsided.
"To continue the point you were making earlier to the
other student, may I give you an example of what I mean?"

The professor wisely keeps silent.

The Christian looks around the room. "Is there anyone in
the class who has ever seen the professor's brain?"

The class breaks out in laughter.

The Christian points towards his elderly, crumbling tutor.

"Is there anyone here who has ever heard the professor's
brain... felt the professor's brain, touched or smelt the
professor's brain?"

No one appears to have done so.

The Christian shakes his head sadly. "It appears no-one
here has had any sensory perception of the professor's
brain whatsoever. Well, according to the rules of empirical,
stable, demonstrable protocol, science, I DECLARE that
the professor has no brain."

The class is in chaos.

And the Christian sits... Because that is what a chair is
for.

5 evils..are you sure its not 1, 13, 7, 4, 2, 69, (randomly stating integers) evils....everyone has a different point of view. So somebody may say the pickup lines are lame (the majority of us agree it appears)....so are they lame?

No we aren't dating, never have, but have gone out to the movies and dances together...when we can get together. IB + Robotics = Hectic Schedule.

The way that I see it, is that you have nothing to lose by just going up to a girl and talking to her, especially at a robotics competition. I mean, you could always avoid her later if you do anything stupid.. lol.

Shelley_delphi chick

25-02-2003, 22:25

The more original and more goofy you are the better though. I mean don't use a "lame" pick-up line on a robotics chick, she might be the one running away from laughter!! Guys that come up to me and start an interesting conversation I will at least sit and talk to them if nothing else. You just never know when you might start a conversation and then a month later still be having that conversation with the same person!!

Some food for thought!!

i cannot agree with you enough....... in high school its hard to find new friends cause people are in "groups" sometimes closed.... robot comps are ok... im lil too nervous to talk to strangers but i meet people who are also in robotics at random times and we coudl talk on and on

There is always time to scope out the guys and or girls at competitions. I mean hotels, local malls, and don't forget lunch time. If I spot someone I'd like to chat with at a competition they hey there goes me walking toward them. You shouldn't be affraid what is the worst that could happen......they say no and blow you off. Well, then in that case they are the downfall of the FIRST program because you have to be able to talk and present all ideas to other people and be able to spread and enjoy the world of FIRST. They don't know what they are missing out on if this happens.

Here's a tip.

Pick up lines never work - especially if she's smart.

Pick up lines never work even more at FIRST events, where the girls are smarter than average.

Although, ChewyMasterFlex's library card one is pretty good. That's not terribly insulting - the mirror in the pants one however, just makes you look like a jackass.

work? people actually use them... pick up lines seem soo sterotypical... i onyl see them used in movies... i never hear it used around me... but then thats just me

jzampier

27-02-2003, 20:04

Pickup lines.... well, my general feeling is that they are mostly rediculous and completely unnecessary...

Still I think the best pickup line i've ever seen work: ( this is actually true, i was there, my roommate at the time used it (names omitted to protect the guilty) )

Was: "Do you want to see my robot?"
now, the context was that we had just completed a FIRST demo and some girl was talking to him a bit... and well, since the robot was in the back of his van... and the rest is history...

Yeah, the pants one from before, was just to make the point that some pickup lines are better left unsaid, unless you like getting smacked.

understanding girls are cool girls
if you can find some, keep them,
i mean, even as friends,

the reason i say that is b/c i have more guy friends
b/c i know many (not all, don't stone me!) girls can be 'UN-understanding' in the sence that
they worry 'bout their appearance or rep much.
so can't just be silly
so i try to stay with the 'cool' girls who're just like
'hey whatever' and don't mind screaming random things
in public just to see reactions ::hehe::
:p :D

so find them, and keep them;)
have fun, that's the goal in the end - ¿no?

my friends did a tv package of themselves doing this at nats last year. Other than the question "which way to muscle beach?" followed by lots of masculine posin, the only pickup line I remember from it was:

Guy: are you from tennesse (sp?)
Girl: No, why?
Guy: 'cause you're the only ten i see!

purpledaisy

01-03-2003, 23:12

all i can say is use pick-up lines warily! it's HILARIOUS to hear all of these, but (like the mirror one) would make me break my standing rule not to hit people. i also might break my standing rule not to curse. be tasteful if you use them, and don't really expect them to get you a date - a friend maybe, but if he's worth dating, he probably won't jump on it right away. wait a while, being friends first is most important, then you can (maybe) be friends afterwards.

Last year I went up to some girl and told her " Girls require Time and money (Girls= Time + Money) , Time is Money (Time= Money), therefore ( Girls =Money^2), Money is the root of all evil ( Money =square root evil), Money squared = evil where if you look above equals Girls which concludes GIRLS =EVIL" for some reason that kinda back fired :rolleyes:

Pick-Up Lines to use on Math Chicks:
1) You fascinate me more than the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus.
2) Are you a derive-able function? Because I'd like to be tangent to your curves!
3) You and I would add up better than a Riemann sum.
4) I am equivalent to the Empty Set when you are not with me.

I couldn't help myself. I saw this in a really old post:

"Hey we have the worlds largest "chick magent" on our team we always know where to find him we just ask any girl we find.and she will be able to tell us."

I was just wondering if a member of our team had relocated to that team. Although I wont mention who, since that's just mean, there is a guy who since I've been on the team I have not seen not leave a competition without atleast ONE new girl he met there. This includes off-season stuff too. He has a chick now though so maybe it wont happen this year. LOL.

Speaking of lame pickup lines..this wasnt at first or anything but I once heard a guy go up my friend and go "You know, your hair smells sooo good. What kind of shampoo do you use?" a little by itself but there was more to it that I wont mention here. Just...scarey.

So we were at the Cleveland regional...
and someone comes up and starts scouting out the robot. And he's talking to one of the college mentors on the team ( unbeknownst to him ).
So he gets to the additional information section on his form and asks: 'So is there any this special you'd like to say about the bot, or anything additional to add, like your phone number
She ( the mentor ) replied: 'Dude, that'd be illegal'
Everyone else just laughed.

I don't know him but it was used by a guy that used to be on my team. He used..oh man, what is it? That language that's 0's and 1's...
Well anyway, he printed out "Will you go out with me?" in that 1/0 language on a t-shirt and approached the girl ... she accepted.

For our team's "Community Night" we had to give profiles. One of the guys on the team said his interests, then added that he likes long walks on the beach, nice stomachs, and spooning. Seriously, who thinks this information was necessary?? Not I...
I've heard many other interesting things at robotics competitions. During the Cleveland regional this past weekend, my 18th bday was on Sat., so I there were some good ones that came from that. Yes...and there were even a few ppl who asked me to buy them some porn since I am now legally able. Guys :-P
