The last one I never would have used but I can see some of my buddies in college trying that one. Thanks for your comments. Merrill Steve,

With the accent, they were deadly in the bars. Here are some of the ones I remembered: "Are you tired? You have been racing through my mind all night" "I wish I had invented the alphabet, cause I would have put U and I next to each other" and my personal favorite for purely comedic reason..... "I have a different girlfriend for 6 of the 7 days of the week. Would you like to be my Tuesday?" when the girl gave a disgusted look and said no, the guy would look shocked and say "Damn, why am I having such a tough time filling Tuesday?"

(I don't think he ever got lucky with it though...) If I told you you had a great body, would you hold it against me? One that my roommate used. (I don’t think he ever got lucky with it though…)

If I told you you had a great body, would you hold it against me?

Or... "Excuse me, I work for a market research company and we are taking a survey. Of all the men in this bar, who do you find to be the most interesting?" I wonder if either of these would actually work? Steve I wonder if anyone here has ever tried this one:

I was never a big fan of using them, but I done so simply as a joke in the past (when I was single, for all you dirty-minded bloggers)! Actually, I had a friend who used to use this one, ALOT: "Wanna go back to me place for some Pizza and sex? WHAT - YOU DON'T LIKE PIZZA?" I'm sure it didn't hurt that this guy was 6'2" and very good looking, but still - that always cracked me up. Another one he used to use a little less frequently was "I really like what you're wearing - that outfit would look great at the foot of my bed." This is great.

Of course, he didn't have a friend; he was scoping things out for himself. “My friend wants to meet you but he is really shy so he sent me over here to see if you were interested in meeting someone new.” Of course, he didn’t have a friend; he was scoping things out for himself.

Whoever is correct gets to dance with you". At that moment, my date came back and made them go away!! I have to admit it was original - I had never heard that one before nor did I ever hear that one again.
