chsw, probably not well. I’ve never gone home with anyone I met in a bar. Come to think of it, I’ve never so much as dated anyone I met in a bar. I was never into that scene.

Alex, wouldn’t The Life of Brian be better for that purpose (there’s full-frontal nudity in it, after all)?

Why, just last week I saw a woman smoking marijuana and I said to the weed: “Say, what’s a joint like you doing in a nice girl like this?”

But generally I stick to my standards: “My rotisserie league draft is coming up and I sure could use your advice about middle infielders,” “Would you like to come over to my place and see my etchings?” and “We could turn the sound off on a video of ‘Monty Python and the Holy Grail’ and I could dothe dialogue for you.”

How would you respond to a guy who came up to you and said “Hi. My name is Joe. What’s your name?”

Ya, know, Meryl, this could be the start of another one of them games of yours.

You know – ‘Snappy responses to (insert pickup line)’.

Those lines are so bad they are hilarious.

But would you be willing to talk to him after laughing? That’s the point of a pickup line, I think (I’m no expert, I never used one)
