You girls are acting like it's actual work to try and pick a dude up.

Puh-leeze.

What woman is having trouble finding a dude to bang? Any woman on the face of the Earth can find a dude to bang in under 2 minutes. ANY woman. Shit, open your window right now and yell to the next guy walking by 'Hey, come in here and bang me' guess what? He will.

Chicks needing some special pick up lines, pffffftttttt.

Here's one that'll work...walk up to a dude at the bar or show or what have you and say 'Ok, come on let's go'

Try and be a dude trying to pick up chicks for five minutes, just fucking try. Chicks will pepper spray you for saying hello.

I kid.

See, I'm never looking for a dude to "bang".

I have never, and probably will never, meet a stranger and swap fluids with them before I know their last name.

I have no problem -at all- with people who do this, but it's not my thing. It makes me less fun than a lot of my friends at brunch.

So a line like noise&light's is commendable, not just for it's boldness, but because it works over an expanse of intentions, even my own tame purposes which, with an interesting stranger would be to communicate "hey, I'm a saucy broad, I like your broad shoulders and we should have cocktails sometime".

Of course, this could be taken as "we should have cock-->tail sometime". But that's where the pepper spray comes in.

Do you really wanna date a dude who didn't come up to you and initiate the conversation first?

If I waited for people to come up and talk to me I would have no friends, no romance and probably no bands. Sometimes people are shy and you've just got to make conversation. I don't put a lot of stock into who breaks the ice. It's not like I'll view someone as unmanly if they don't speak first. That doesn't really register for me. I do appreciate interesting conversation with funny and smart people. Having a great conversation is like playing catch. You want to find people that can throw it back to you.

Oh yeah and then I can giggle while he tells me about how much he can bench and the time he beat the shit out of a guy (almost) and ALL about the camaro and maybe I'll interject to tell him a cute story about my best friend's puppy and how her wedding dress was soooo beautiful and I'm an art major but really I'm trying to be an actress or maybe in human resources but really I wanna know more about what he does at work cause it sounds so interesting and hard and hopefully he will not notice my gross arms and take me home and after that we'll totally be dating. Yay! What a catch.

Hold on. Hold on just a minute. You didn't go home with Camaro guy?



If I were a single man with a car like this, it would be known all around town as "the gynecologist's office."

And you have brunch.....where?

Sounds to me like some of you girls are really trying hard to justify the wimpy ass uncomfortable stare at the floor meek scared of their own shadow wussy indie rock boys you find yourselves dating.
Oh he's sensitive....he's just a little socially awkward.
I hear that socially awkward bullshit all the time from girls I know dating these dudes.
'Hey that dude is kind of a asshole, he stared at the ground the whole night and didn;t talk to anyone'
'Oh no, he's just kind of socially awkward'

Like I said, an asshole.

Anyone who acts like a normal human and not a herky jerky little messy haired sissy is a Neanderthal who drives a Camero. Ok.

A Camero is a fucking sweet ride anyway.

You mean like, go to the bathroom together?
