The real question is... how does all of this relate to lame pickup lines?

haha first i was going to write evil is the absence of good.... but somehot i got carried away

I think i'd have to say good point to both kristen and Utishpenguin

utishpenguin: Ohhhh, now I gotcha...I think..lol

Kristen: Yeah, its just expected of this thread, lol, these thread goes WAAAAAYYYYY OFF topic, comes back for a post or two, and off it goes again!

This is the chit-chat board, anything goes here :D

I don't think we're capable of staying on topic for more than 2 or 3 replys.

you mean there's a set topic?!?! :ahh:

i don't know if i can handle that!!! ::having a mental breakdown::

our principal dude once did this like 45 min talk on the 5 kinds of evil...

::sigh:: BORED OUT OF MY SKULL

if i'd bothered to remember any of it i'd say some of it here, but i didn't.














so there. :D

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?

Pick up lines ROCK!
as long as you don't expect them to work
but they're funny as anything!

I haven't had a weird pickup line...yet...but last year at nationals a group of guys did want to throw me in to one of the big fountains near the honey i shrunk the kids ride during the team party.

lol! Some do work, because I've heard people say them, and the girl was like, "OK!". But yea, they are funny. I've got a few, but they ain't lame (in my opinion anyhow).

Hey, you never know...they do work sometimes. It takes courage to use them!

Yup. You also gotta watch how you use them.

How true that is....but I've never used one other than "hello" or "hi" and that was by accident....met my best friend at FIRST KSC-SE Regionals in 2001 at the Holiday our teams (she's on 179) were staying at. 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.

It's hard enough me using "hi" or "hello", I'm to nervous.

yeah.. the fear of the oddness of people eyes when they look at you.... *shudder* i forgot the last time i went to a stranger and said hi. usually i meet people virtually and then we meet physicallly =P

Wow Crab Mating Dance

I don't mind doing it that way, but hey. I like it when I go "hi..hi..hi..hi"

nervousness really stinks!

Yup, got that right ;). Which also bites is being ignorant when you don't wanna be (like, when you wanna talk to this girl, but when you do, you say something smart-alack-like, and, well, we all know what happens after)

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.

Us Robotics Girls
 

"Good thing I have my library card, cuz I'm checkin' you OUT!"

That's as low as it gets.

Always have dignity to lose....plus the embarassment of feeling dumb, etc. (any guy knows that feeling)

Speaking of which....lol

j/k :P

jeez
 

man all you people are talking about hooking up the regional event and everything, i hardly ever find anyone to talk to never mind meet up with somebody. i have been at the New york regional for 2 years and met no-one. but this year we are makeing an attempt to go to the nationals so maybe we will meet people their? well all you people seem nice maybe ill finally meet some people down in houston.

Hehe...if I step near a girl they repel away, I think. It makes it quite easy to walk through malls, though. :D

How do you people even find time to talk to other people at competitions? Sheesh. :) (I don't understand why guys always have to start the conversation...)

well, you've never met me!! And i promise you, it isn't that hard to find time to meet new people. But if you really can't find the time, then you need to make time...

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

Time.....
 

Ohh, it may be low but it does sound good, and educationally oriented!!!! :D

too true man tooooo true!
i mean, it's better then saying

'if i could rearrange the alphabet I'd put U and I together'

that just makes you should.. er, uneducated?
who ever thinks of changing the alphabet?!?!?!:rolleyes: :p

better than.
 

All of which are better than:

You must have a mirror in your pants, because I can see myself in them...

Re: better than.
 

Umm.. I'd feel really insulted if a guy said that to me.

Re: Re: better than.
 

Heh... Got something against transvestites?

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

Pickup what?
 

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.

I just got a ridiculous idea.

You make a flower out of zipties, and then go up to a chick and say "Zip Tie?"

haha zipties.... how cheap...=P cute tho... my teachers are stingy on wasting zipties....hahhaa a subject to research... how to make a pretty ziptie flower

how about a flower made of wires, zipties, and lexan or maube even aluminum.

Re: Time.....
 

If they blow you off, then it's not FIRST material (:D).

Re: Re: Time.....
 

That's why FIRST girls are great!!!! They understand.

Re: Re: Re: Time.....
 

lol...how true :D. A lot of team 5 members are very cool, and understandable from what I know of.

haha
 

true true... sometimes i have friends from other school who i only talk abotu first and we go on for hours at a time... the girls of team #115 are too smart [excluding me=P] IM SERIOUS! im just the babblermouth....=P

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?

Its very important to have friends. Where would any of be inlife without friends? It doesn't matter if they're male or female.

Having fun in life is true for everyone.

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!

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:

Really? geez..it sounded perfect!


oh right..sarcasm tags..i always forget those...

also you could replce "girl" with "boy".

heh
 

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.

Re: heh
 

haha! I love em!


OT comment on that: Don't Drink And Derive

They're all great....and funny. But here's one....

Girl: "I want you to go to Alaska"
Guy: "I'll ask ya out..would ya? " :D

Its lame...I've heard it before.

Re: Re: heh
 

lol.

The tenneesse (sp?) one has been all around the internet.

Guy: "Hi, may I ask you something?"
Girl: (scared look on her face) "Sure......."
Guy: "sosomethingifyouwanttogooutwithme"
Girl: "Umm....ok"

Re: heh
 

o wow, i love those!
and see, those might get you strange looks, but there
was some thought put in to them.

Right on!

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.

I've heard that one used before by various people.....a girl asked me that and she being straight and serious about it....funny thing is I'm like Head & Shoulders. why?

lol...this is the first one I've heard that hasn't been around my school atleast once.

here's one you could use on a podiatrist someday...

"You're more bumpin than a blister between two toes"

;o)

going w/ the theme:

honey, you're more textures then the calluses on my feet


boy, you're more intense then the corns on my toes

ok. some more corny ones.

to a chef or cook:
"You filet my heart!"

to a farmer:
"My love for you is longer than sheep hair"

to a cardiologist:
"I'd give my heart for you"

to an optometrist:
"I only have eyes for you."

to a butcher:
"Since I'd die if I gave you my heart, I'll give you this sheep's heart instead."

Overheard a lot (used by the girls):

Hey, wanna lei?

DUDE! that is so the line of the girls of Team 25!

:D ;) :p

Ok, please run this past me again, what does lei mean?

Here's an old fashion one:

Hi, would you like to go out with me

Actually, at Richmond, it was 510, but I'm sure everyone uses it :D ;) :p

a lei is one of those hawaiian flower things, though at comps they tend to be the cheaper plastic ones. It's pronounced "lay," hence the pun.

Haha! YES! and the lei-ing continues!!

Man, I don't think I want to use any more pick-up lines after this...OWW! That hurt...:D Seriously though, I want to know how come most of the *nice* guys can't get girls to like them.:confused:

k i didnt read all the replies to this thread but i felt like posting my favorite pickup line i've heard(and used, jokingly)

"hey baby, wanna integrate my natural log?"

heh i love it.. :-p so funny for the calc geeks ;)

yes yes

can be taken in a very profane manner.. but nevertheless amusing

LEI the jeans or lei the hawaiian necklace type thing??

Bah, that will never work!!!

hey! I like nice guys.. but then again, i don't count

but I get what you are saying, there are
some girls out there that like the jerks,
I can never understand that....
:confused:
but hey,
to each his own

really? aw, ok, well, i'm sure it's gonna get used on us atleast:rolleyes: we are so hawaiian for jersey :p

...I prefer to use the....
"hey hun hows it goin?..." *we'll get to talkin and walk around a bit, then find a chair, i'll sit down...then comes the heavy hitter...."Hey, why don;t you come over here'n sit on my lap and we'll talk about wtvr popps up;) :cool: "

Actually, from what I could tell, the girls were using it on the guys. :)

i've had that used on me before... :rolleyes: no comment


and the girls WILL be using it,
even if we try to stop them...

you bet we will!

lei...not LEI

It works, if you use it right.

"u want a button?"
"oh those beads are really nice" *looks down and stares hard*

being stared could be hazardous to ones health =P

Funny Happening
 

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.

Hmm...Jeff's telling my story.

::sigh::

It was funny.

I had to contain myself this past weekend....being 3 years older than like all the guys there....i was just laughing...cause like...I had only been there for a minute, and I already got whistled at...

you FIRST boys don't waste anytime...lol :)

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.

AW! Did she figure out the binary?
like, decipher it and then reply?
in binary? that would be so much better!

:]

Um, x ln x + x + c. So?

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

I heard the guy had to ask another guy on the team to write it out for him. That would have been funny is she replied in binary. =P

Heh. I know him, and her.

That was funny, indeed.

!!! :ahh:
...
:yikes:

(that's the only way i can reply to that)

and thanks for the math pick up lines, my friend and I
tried to make some up but they weren't as good as yours,
i gotta print them out for her :p

happy late 18th birthday. =P

alas where is this world going??? a profile is about who you are not who you want some other person to be....

well this wasnt really meant as a pickup line or given by a guy but it still is wicked funny....some of the Girls on my team had thought that the boys on the Canadian team were wicked hott so they proceded to figure out how to say you have nice asses in french then had like the whole team come over to talk with us...(thanks to the canadian in the Chicken Suit).....and they told them it....it didnt work to well though we did hang with them the rest of the day friday and during the social...which was quite fun...yeah human foosball!!!! I want another i love Canada sticker though....you shouldnt have run out i was quite sad!!!!

now lets see the lamest pickup line....hmm...i wish i could say ive heard some but i dont normally have people trying to pick me up....if im wrong and you have, just tell me...we'll talk...lol

I have no idea who either of them are. But I believe I know who had to translate it and give it to him... :p

ok. this one was just a joke between my friend from another team and me..but it was great anyway:

tan=nice, you=nice, tan+you=GREAT

I was like....ooooh yeah. hee hee

My New Favorite Pick Up Line
 

Aloha,

At the Annapolis Regional this past weekend I heard a great line I have to share.

I decided that our team should hang our huge "25" banner which is actually 4 queen size sheets sewn together and painted. So, we asked for some help from a boy from team 398 ::coughs (George):: While we were putting it up he commented that the banner didn't have to be perfect. I responded that "If its 25, it is perfect." He turned around and said, "So I guess that explains why you're on the team."

I thought it was great...a little cheesy but smooth. Definately won him some brownie points. =)

Later,
Mellie

haha
 

Heres a good pick-up line for all you fellows out there: Are you a F.I.R.S.T robot, cause your DRIVIN me crazy!!:D

Re: My New Favorite Pick Up Line
 

That was sweet. :D

whats wrong with the old, run into her and strike up a conversation methodology? Also, who came up with the "Pickup Line" and seriously, ask your self, would you accept one? seriously!

Hmmm... let me think about this one, umm... YES!!! :D

You must be able to give and recieve!! it's like ying and yang, good and evil, wrong and right, night and day....

YES!!!

Thats a silly question, of course I would.

But, I'll agree that "Pickup Lines" are kinda silly, just start talking to someone, get a conversation going, and hey, you get to know them and no cheesy lines were used.

yep yep i agree........ as for teh ying yang thing.....its an ironic worl out there since things exist in pairs
