Being single - with all the virtues that come with it - is good, especially if it’s out of choice. However, for some people it is more circumstantial than anything else.
Granted, there’s only so much you can do about your looks and perhaps your wallet. But to lose out on love or perhaps a fling simply because you can’t string a descent opening line is plain lax and deserves a wooden mic!
IOL put together some of the worst pick-up lines that are guaranteed to deny you the golden ticket and usher you into the celibacy hall of fame... Share yours and let’s have fun.
1. See my friend over there? He wants to know if you think I'm cute...
2. Could you please step away from the bar? You're melting all the ice!
3. I'm going outside to make out... care to join me?
4. Do you know karate? Cause your body's kickin’!
5. I'm new in town, could you give me the directions to your house?
