Pick up lines, pick up lines, everybody is talking about pick up lines. Seemingly the main ingredient in dating and approaching for generations. Did you know that there is one magical pick up line, so powerful, so hypnotic that the person hearing it immediately falls in love with you?

Really?

No! Sorry to disappoint you.

The effect of pick up lines is the most overestimated and misinterpreted thing in the history of seduction and dating.

Unfortunately people really believe that they can overcome their shyness and inexperiences with women with one single magical line. They only have to deliver it somehow and the door to paradise opens for them. Is this funny or tragic?

In order to find this holy line, people take desperate measures. They try corny pick up lines, funny pick up lines, sweet pick up lines, baseless compliments and sexual innuendo, anything you can imagine. Like a girl would say to them: “wow, that’s disgusting, but here’s my number anyway, ’cause you’re stupid but cute”.

So pick up lines could never work. Because they deliver only one message: I’m afraid of you, so I’m playing games to hide.

ON THE OTHER HAND I strongly believe (and not only me) that with the right attitude, mindset and body language, you can literally say ANYTHING and be successful.

Guys, have you ever crashed and burned delivering corny pick up lines? I for one have. A long time ago. It’s not pleasant, this you can believe. But it’s a strong lesson.

Gals, I know you ask yourself why men are taking such desperate measures? The answer is simple: because they didn’t know better.

So, now that you know what I’m talking about, and as a warning for you how not to do it (not least to have a good laugh), here are the 11 worst corny pick up lines ever, enjoy:

1. Come here often?

An absolutely classic and uninspired line. I bet the most often used one.

2. Can I buy you a drink?

I had to mention this one. Hopeless and yet another classic. Sad.

3. Your legs must be tired because you’ve been running through my mind all night.

This is actually funny. You might get lucky with this one.

4. Are you a surgeon? Cause you’ve just took my heart away!

Cheesy.

5. When God made you, he was showing off.

No comment on that.

6. You know what would look really good on you? No, what? Me.

You might get in trouble for that.

7. Did it hurt? When u fell out of Heaven?

You might get your cheeks pinched for that.

8. Am I cute, or do you need another drink?

Pay the drink.

9. Is your dad in jail? Cuz he stole the stars and put them in your eyes.

You belong in jail.

10. Are you going to kiss me, or do I have to lie to my diary?

Lie.

11. Can I borrow a quarter? I promised my mom I would call her when I met the girl of my dreams.

Terrible, isn’t it?
