Another one for the books


Consider the alternative:
"Babe, your name must be 'Mr. Saint' because putting up with you definitely takes perseverance!"

Hey! Plagarist! *BEEP!* *BEEP!*


I want royalties!

(And what kinda a pickup line is THAT?)

As a New Orleans native, I had no concept of Perseverance of the Saints until recently. But that's another issue altogether.

Anyway...

I think you may need to reword the misandristic alternative example you provided. Wouldn't the woman be the saint, since she's the one who's persevering?

Craver - it had that effect on me too!

Armchair...........
*running away with the royalties and all the props* (And what kind of a pickup line is this?! It seemed to work on you. HA!)

Lee - tru dat, but then it's no longer a one-liner. :) (It's like, you don't pick up too many by saying "check my tag. it says 'made in heaven.' it means I'm perfect for you." although, you could try that one on wifey...! haha)

The BatPhone - I can just hear you saying "jokey jokes"....it's like hearing Huey say "cool rollerblading."

jen2 - Sorry. You're right. I guess my name must be "D. Praved," because I was totally lost.

jennifer - How do you think I got her to marry me in the first place?

I will now refer to Lee Shelton as "Douglas Praved". Man! Everyone's getting nicknames now! HA!

And for the record, I originally used the line on Jen. She never used it on me...

...And yes. It worked like a charm.

Now we need a pickupline regarding Limited Atonement and Unconditional Election. Hmm...I'll give the Limited Atonement line, but someone else needs to do the Unconditional Atonement line:

Walk up to a girl in a smallgroup and say:

"I'm sorry to bother you, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to stop looking at me unless you were planning on asking me out or something... (shift into ebonics) 'cause honey, them eyes, though sufficient for all, sure seem to be efficient for ME!" (*jazz praise hands*)

Oh snap. I should write for Halmark.

So, Armchair and Jen, can I expect a wedding invitation?

Lee, I have read and re-read what you wrote, but I don't see how that's a pickup line with anything to do with unconditional election. Could you explain it to me?

I would be happy to explain it...if only I knew what I was talking about.

Hmm, trying to pick the both of us up, eh Lee? I never knew how those dual-unit pick-up lines worked...

To quote Meg Ryan in one of my favorite movies, "I have no response to that."
