Are Pick Up Lines Compliments?

A man walked up to me in a bar and asked “What’s the worst pick-up line a man’s ever given you?”

I responded, “Is this your pick up line? Because this might be the worst.”

Of course he said no, and went on to say that he and his friend (pointing across the bar) were just talking about lines so he thought he’d ask us because we looked like we might know.

My friend and I (who at the moment before interruption were enjoying our $1.00 Bud Lights and our conversation about nonsense) did not know much about pick up lines. In fact, the only other thing I could tell this man was that if he wanted to talk to two girls at the bar, then he should just walk up and say hi. He should avoid the lines or the talk about lines altogether because women weren’t interested in them.

But on second thought, maybe I was wrong. A pick-up line may be cheesy and transparent, but it is nice to be noticed. I mean, if a man asks me if I’m tired because I’ve been running through his mind all night, maybe I should be flattered.
