“I may not be Fred Flintstone, but I bet I can make your Bed Rock.”

A horrible pick up line like that does not really deserve an answer. But won’t it be cool to have a witty retort that will put the wannabe Romeo in his place? We’re here to help! Here is a list of the worst pick up lines, that are amazingly still in heavy rotation, and witty comebacks.

Line: So what do you do for a living?
Comeback: I’m a female impersonator.

Line: Is this seat empty?
Comeback: Yes, and mine will be too if you sit down.

Line: Haven't I seen you someplace before?
Comeback: Yeah, that's why I don't go there anymore.

Line: Do you want to go back to my place?
Comeback: Will two people fit under a rock?

Line: Hey, baby, what's your sign?
Response: Do not Enter!

Line:  There is something wrong with my cell phone; it doesn’t have your number in it.
Comeback: It doesn't? Try under 'In your dreams’

Line: I know how to please a woman.
Comeback: Then please leave me alone.

Line: I want to give myself to you.
Comeback: Sorry, I don't accept cheap gifts.

Line: I know you want me.
Comeback: You're right. I want you to go away

Line: I would go to the end of the world for you.
Comeback: Yes, but would you stay there?

Line: I would like to call you. What is your number?"
Comeback: It's in the phone book.
Line: But I don't know your name.
Comeback: That's in the phone book too.

Line: Do you have a map? I just keep getting lost in your eyes.
Comeback:  Anytime... (Give directions him directions to the door)

Line: Guess what? It’s your lucky day. Out of all the girls here, I picked you to talk to.
Comeback:  Wow! It’s your lucky day too. Out of all the ways I could embarrass you right now…..I will just walk away.

Line: I would go through anything for you.
Comeback: Good! Let's start with your bank account.

Line: Is your dad a terrorist? Cause you're the bomb!
Comeback: Looks like something already blew up in your face, I'd have thought you'd learnt your lesson.

So next time someone tries to pick you up with a very bad line don’t just go along with it because you do not know what to say.  Snap back with a witty retort. If all else fails just turn your back and ignore the person.

The best comeback for the “Flintstones” line..... I may not be Bam Bam, but I bet I can give you a lump on the head!

Facebook stalking etiquette

Googling a crush has become a common practise before any date. But not everyone is that Google’able, till the rise of social media that is. Now you can check up on his career history on LinkIn, read about her vacation in Cape Town on her blog or follow them tweet live tweet about standing in a queue at the Traffic Office. Then there is Facebook, the true goldmine of information.

The Urban dictionary defines Facebook stalking as:
                  A covert method of investigation using facebook.com. Good for discovering a wealth of 
                  information about people you don't actually know.


Facebook stalking has become a relatively acceptable as long as you adhere to the “etiquette”.

Don’t...
...like photos at two in the morning of albums posted two years ago
...Facebook stalk from your cellphone, it’s just too easy to accidently like something that you really don’t like. At all.
...pretend to like his favourite band in order to impress him before Facebook stalking them as well
...make assumptions. So what if he likes Glee, it does not mean he is... well...
...go too deep. In other words check out the guy she is tagged with then his friends as well as the page of the place he works at etc. It’s a slippery slope to crazy, tread carefully.

The Golden Rule: Don't leave a trace that you where there!
