Lisa with Xti on Kits Beach

Guy: Is that a camera?

Me: What? *takes off headphones. turns off SLR.*

Guy: Yeah cuz I saw you taking pictures… So I thought I would come over… Yeah. Is that a good camera? Cuz I was thinking about getting a camera cuz all my friends are all like, why don’t have any pictures up on facebook? Are you on facebook?

Me: Who isn’t? *turns on camera. starts flipping through photo previews on my SLR.*

Guy: So, will you add me?

Me: Ok. *inching away*

Guy: Yeah, great! I don’t check my email every day because I don’t have internet at my place. I’m not really good on computers. Yeah, so, like, if you add me today, I probably won’t get it for like a week cuz that’s when I go to my parent’s place in Chilliwack. They have internet so… Yeah, well I’ll let you get back to your photos. I’m gonna go grab a cold one and just chill out.

Nice one. I bet that guy was thinking, “Score! The “is that a camera” pick-up works every time with those photographer chicks! Maybe I shoulda given her my name or something? Nah, she’ll find me. There are only like a couple of guys from Vancouver on facebook. She’ll recognize me from my photo anyway. Oh crap! I really need a camera… Oh man, look at that blonde chick in those tight yoga pants. Damn she’s fine!”

Guy: Are those boobs?

    Wow. Sometimes it’s better to just not try to pick someone up. No wonder that poor guy is probably single.

    Well that is a pretty good pick up line, however I’m fond of “I’ve seem to have lost my phone number. Can I borrow yours?”

    Works everytime :)

    Is that a camera? Has the dude been living in a cave the last 50 years or what? You should have told him that it wasn’t a camera.

    best line I ever used?
    this girl I was talking to thought that I’d dump her for someone else if we ever got serious.

    I just told her:
    “why would I leave the honeycomb, to taste a grain of sugar?”

    total cheese but my big grin made it work.

    how ’bout: “hey, i just got a MB air. Want it?”

    And i always liked, “got a little Italian/English/Irish etc in you? No? Want some?”

    At least you know what the dude’s intention is. Can’t fault honesty can you?

    I was more wondering if that was a Canon 5D? Boobs? Cameras don’t have boobs?

    A mate and myself used to play a pick up line game when we were competing at the Australian Snow Championships. Very simple to play…

    Sample scenario…

    I walk up to a girl and say, “My friend and I (points to friend on the other side of the pub who waves) are playing a pick up line game. I’m going to put a pick up line on you. If you like it, you give me a kiss on the cheek. If you don’t like it, you give me a slap.”

    Girl: “Sure.”

    Me: “I’ve lost my teddy bear. Will you sleep with me?”

    Girl: Smooches Toddy on the cheek.

    Friend then comes over to ask girl what the pick up line was. That’s one of the only rules. You can only use the same line twice in the one night.

    We’d usually only get to about 3 or 4 kisses each before we’d hit it off with a girl and talk the night away…

    90% of the time, we’d get a kiss.

    Give it a try. Enjoy!

    Nice… Great pick up line.

    I heard a rather generic one the other night:
    “I’m not really familiar with Vancouver and I’m looking for directions”
    “Sure, where do you need to go”
    “I need you to draw me a map of how to get to your apartment”

    I didn’t bit.

    Civilized Spice. are you civilized?
