Worst/Weirdest pick up line EVER!!

This actually happened to me at work once. Seriously, what is it with douchey frat boy types and horrible, offensive pick up lines?



I guess this dude had some sort of LDS fetish (or, at the very least, some very odd stereotypes about what LDS girls "look" like and/or how they behave). And he seemed to think saying "you look innocent" to a girl is a compliment. News flash to any boys reading this: if you say "you look innocent" to a girl in the wrong setting and/or tone of voice, you'll come across as very, VERY creepy. Do yourself and female kind a favor and just retire that line from your pick up line vocabulary if you haven't already.

On the bright side, not all the boys in that douchey frat boy group were loathsome jerks. One of them came up to me privately later on to apologize for the behavior of his friend. I thanked him, but told him that his buddy really ought to grow a pair of balls (and a sense of chivalry) and apologize to me himself. He never did. Oy vey.

30 Day Shipping Meme - Day 13: Cutest Pairing & Pairing you rooted for since the beginning

Day 18 - What is the cutest pairing?
Buster & Babs Bunny (no relation) and Shirley McLoon & Plucky Duck from Tiny Toon Adventures
Specifically, the episode titled 'Thirteensomething'


I adored Tiny Toons as a kid and remember being obsessed with this episode in particular. I recently re-watched it and was pleasantly surprised at how much better it is when watched through grown up eyes. These four characters kinda remind me of my friends in the scenes where they argue about what to watch on TV. The flirty (and sometimes risqué) banter between Plucky and Shirley was hilarious. And seeing Buster and Babs admit that they’re crazy about each other and hated being apart makes me go “awwww” every time (just like the studio audience).

Day 19 - A pairing you've rooted for since the beginning?
Pebbles Flintstone and Bamm-Bamm Rubble (The Flintstones)



This is another ship that’s fueled more by nostalgia than actual chemistry (when the two Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm movies aired on TV, my sister and I recorded them and watched them again countless times!).
Back in the early 1990s, Hanna Barbera made two TV movies centered around the grown up Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm. The first movie (I Yabba Dabba Doo) was about their wedding and the second movie (Hollyrock-a-bye Baby) was about the birth of their first (and second) child.


Here is Fred carrying his pregnant (and in-labor!) daughter to the hospital while gangsters chase them.
It almost makes sense when you watch the movie
