Hah! And you thought I lost my passion for Operasi Train Jantan already. Don't lie. I know you did. Well, think again cos this time, I'm BACK with a vengeance. Mwahahaha.

The topic of the day is: Pick-up Lines.

My super power male antenna tells me that the average male uses two dozen pick-up lines in his lifetime, but uses the two dozen about a million times. Yeah, they're not very creative. *snicker* Hence, recycling becomes the name of the game. And boy, oh boy, is it a game to them.


Come on, man. What? One line and you think you'll get the girl feeding out of the palm of your hand? Damn, dude, what kind of girls have you been hanging out with? Tsk tsk. It takes soooo much more than that. A GOOD (it's gotta be good or else it doesn't count and the opposite applies) pick-up line just gives you a slight edge over the other boys in your neighbourhood cos you've gotten a head start in the Oh-Look-At-That-You're-Alive-And-I-Notice-You Department.

Okay. Now that we've gotten that settled,
let's look at what's acceptable and what's not, ya?

What's NOT Cool: -

Recycled pick-up lines you've also used on her friends, and her friend's friends, and her friend's friend's friends. Not cool, okay. Girls talk. We KNOW when you've said it before. Even though it may not be directed to us the first time or the next and the next and the next. The bottom line is this: WE KNOW.

Pick-up lines you find over the Internet from pickuplines.com or something. Most of them are tacky, crude and offensive – all highly inappropriate for our Asian culture. Plus, it may come as a surprise to you too but we're also connected. Pfft. This is the Internet age, for crying out loud. Come up with your own lines (if you really turn into a total goof ball in the presence of the opposite sex and you need lines to begin with), okay. Otherwise, you can be sure that when you do unleash any favourite lines from your self-compiled Pick-Up-Lines Encyclopedia, we'd probably have heard or have read them before... and then it becomes lame. Which of course, leads me to...

Lame pick-up lines. You know, the super corny ones. The type that makes your skin crawl, your eyes bulge and your ears ring. Haha. Honestly, I'd rather not expand this point. I wouldn't ever come to an end. There are just sooooo many uber-lame pick-up lines in existence out there! Haha. Instead, I'll give you an example. =p

Need I say more? Haha.
They even KNOW that it's lame!


Now, for what IS cool...
...and oh-so-heart-meltingly-sweet.

*grin*

Yes, it's coming.

Be sincere in your praises. Flattery that's too OTT just kills whatever chances you would have had. The ladies KNOW when you're being insincere. We come with in-built radars that buzz and ring madly whenever sweet talkers with no conscience come our way. Insincerity is a big no-no. And, come on. Assuming that this was to work out eventually and you're not hitting on girls in clubs with no intention of ever having a second date (unless you actually are that much of a jerk), you wouldn't want the basis of your relationship to be founded on deception and insincerity, do you? *blink* Wait. Sigh. Don't answer that.

Speak the truth AT ALL TIMES. Don't tell her you like her face if you actually don't. Don't tell her you think she's gorgeous when you personally think that she's not. Don't tell her she reminds you of Angelina Jolie when she looks like Aerosmith's long lost twin. Don't tell her anything that you want her to hear and believe but you don't believe in yourself. Note: It's different if she's a pig but you think that she's the prettiest pig in the whole wide world. Then tell that TRUTH to her tactfully. I'm sure you'll find a way. Can't think of anything, get in touch. I'll help in any way I can.

Praise her efforts. She put in the effort to look the way she does. Therefore, she already knows that she's got the right dress on, the right shoes to match her eyelashes and the right belt to go with her earlobes. But do you? Show her that you take notice of the effort she's put in to look as good as she does. Even if it's just changing her parting or lip colour – anything! Just notice something at the very least. If you think she's got the hots for you, too, the effort was probably for YOU anyways. Appreciate it. And it doesn't hurt to let her know that you know she knows you know she's doing it for you. =) Sincere praise is the best pick-up line ever. It's the way to go. Women swoon when they get a dose of that. Honest.

Be funny. But not at her expense. Tell her jokes. Make her laugh. Girls dig boys who have a wicked sense of humour. We like laughing. And if we really like you, we tend to giggle. (Did I just say that?!) So long as it's directed to other people and not at us. Haha. Tease, but don't provoke. Yank her chain, but don't mock. It's a fine line to tread but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do, right? So, DO IT. Just stay clear of knock-knock jokes, feminist puns and all things lame, and you should do alright. It's about being witty, not about being mean. Sarcasm's fine some of the time (depending on the girl), but I personally think that smooth, tactful innuendo's the way to go. Plus, that way, if she gets it (your jokes, I mean), you know she's as quick as you are and there's a possibility you two could actually hit it off. Wouldn't that be swell? And if not, then at least you've got time to make a run for it.

That's it. I'm done. Cheers!
