Thinking back to my single Bone days – I occasionally would have to work at getting a date. I know I know it’s surprising, me being so charming and shit but it wasn’t always so easy for me to sweep a lady off her feet. Unless of course I was whacking her across the skull with a broom.
My problem was an opening line. From time to time I could put together a brilliant statement but more often than not I fumbled with the situation and went home alone and phone numberless.
As a service to my Bonehead readers – here then are some pickup lines that usually will not work.
- Last time I was in this bar, I got so drunk, when I woke up the next day I noticed somebody shit in my pants.
- Hey baby! Were your parents retarded ‘cause you sure are special!
- Nice nose, was your dad a pelican ?
- I may not be the best looking guy here – but I’m the only one talking to you.
- Do you believe in love at first sight or do you want me to walk by again?
- Excuse me, but why is your moose drinking my cheese?
- What’s a nice girl like you doing with a face like that?
- Pardon me; can I borrow your spatula ?
- I’ve had quite a bit to drink, and you’re starting to look pretty good.
- Are you wearing space pants? Cause your ass is out of this world!
- Guess what, you’re eyes are the same color as my Porsche.
- I like honesty, this is my real hair. Are those your real breasts?
- Ya know I had a feeling I might meet one of my future ex-wives here tonight.
- They say a mind is a terrible thing to waste, I see you however, disagree.
Fortunately, my large wallet , position of power and drop dead good looks helped me land my beautiful wife without the need to resort to tired old pickup lines. I took the more tactical route of hiring her for a prestigious opening in the company I worked for at the time.
With age comes wisdom, so I have also learned to leave the creative quotes to my wife, while I now stick to creative writing which includes the spell, grammar and fact checker, plus a delete key – which would have probably saved me significant stain removal costs from the dry cleaners as a young man after having drinks thrown at me.

I prefer your artful blog writing, although, "Pardon me. Can I borrow your spatula?" would have definitely gotten my attention. I'm glad you now leave the creative quotes to Chrissy. Thank you, Chrissy.
Mind if I borrow a couple of these? They're gold, I tells ya! GOLD!
Nah. The missus won't mind me trying these out. She's happy that I stopped introducing her to people as "my first wife!"
I met someone who apparently went to the Bonehead School of Stuff to Say to Women, because he walked up to me and said, "Cn I asssk you a quesstion? Them titties real?"
It was magic.
He did have a pretty nice motorcycle...
I think I used to know a guy who actually used some of those lines. Too bad he didn't read your list first. I wonder if he ever found any takers...lol
~Cheers to a new year and new chance to do it right~
Where I grew up in the dregs of Brooklyn, these lines would've suggested a certain degree of genteelness and sophistication. Better than, "Bitch, get in the car."
Or "I gave it to your mother last night, now it's your turn."
LOL! Thanks Lauren but I must admit he did get me on- Are you wearing space pants? Cause your ass is out of this world! to pick me up! - or at least I only wish.
Lauren: Yes, spatulas and discussion of several other kitchen utensils has occasionally sparked a conversation or two, usually ending with a recommendation of therapy for me.
C: Please use and enjoy! I occasionally refer to Chrissy as my second ex-wife, she tends to get angry at me when I do that.
ShieldMaiden: That was probably my cousin Lou - he never wore a helmet.
Ann: If I had to guess - he's still looking - my list can only serve as warning!
Dorothy: Happy New Year to you too! Chances are I'll blow the chance again - but it's ok - so long as we have fun doing so!
Hi NP! Yes - my cousin Lou came from Brooklyn - as did several of my esteemed relatives of Italian Heritage who've inexplicably been away at "college" for most of the past 12-15 years.
CC: Again with the ass up to "here"
