A Big Freaking List of Pickup Lines

Use at your own risk.

"Some of the worst mistakes in my life were haircuts and pickup lines." — Jim Morrison

Pickup lines date back much further than you might expect. In ancient Rome, the poet Ovid wrote about techniques for romantic pursuit in his work "The Art of Love" around 2 AD:

• Book I, Line 631-640:

  • "Let him make her think he's deeply in love, and whatever she says, let him praise her speech."

  • "Let him sigh often and pretend to be pale, let him act like a lover possessed."

• Book II, Line 99-100:

  • "And let your words be full of enticing flattery: you’ll find a girl that will be yours for the asking."

• Book I, Line 469-470:

  • "You must learn to praise her face, her hair, her hands, and her fingernails, even her clothes."

• Book I, Line 563-570:

  • "Let your tongue never weary in her praise, and let her ears drink in your sugared words."

• Book II, Line 349-350:

  • "But don't be bashful; only the bold win love, and a smooth tongue will conquer all."

Research has shown that direct pickup lines tend to be more effective for men approaching women, while women approaching men often have more success with subtle lines.
