OK, I'll prob'ly get red flagged, but my mates and I have just got to know...

In the 50's and 60's, Leslie Phillips would twirl his tash and purr "Hell-air" or "Ding-Dong" whenever an attractive woman (eg Barbara Windsor, Una Stubbs, etc.) entered the room.

More recent variants have been:

Hubba-Hubba!

Woo-Haa!

Shwinnggg!

Anyone know what the 2006 Lounge Lizard's expression of approval is?

How about, "Please remove the restraining order?"



I used to rock and roll every night and party every day. Then it was every other day. Now I'm lucky if I can find 30 minutes a week in which to get funky. - Homer Simpson

That's how I proposed to my wife!

Of course, the way I asked her out was, "Do you ever want to see your family again?"

You may not get many replies to this one. I'm abstaining because most of the lines I know could get me booted from TT.
 
Hi,
One I've heard used ( not by me, of course) was

Smokin'


The question was not for 'pick up' lines
( like 'If I comment on your body, would you hold it against me?')
but for expressions of 'appreciation'...

I've heard (okay, and maybe used) this one:

"I wouldn't kick <him/her> out of bed for eating crackers."

Not sure where it first popped up in the timeline but "all that and a bag of chips"

[thumbsup2] Wow, I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time.
I think I've forgotten this before.

So, did she say "Yes," or realize this was just a "propositional phrase" you were going, er, through.

My ex-boss proposed by asking "Would you like to be the first Mrs [name hidden to protect the guilty]?"

She is now the ex, and he proposed to the 2nd one in a similar way....

The question should be [red]Is it worth trying to do?[/red] not [blue] Can it be done?[/blue]
 
Yeah, Turkbear is right, The question was not for 'pick up' lines, but the little sayings you gasp to yourself (or your companions) when spotting a potential breakfast partner [wink]

You're out with your girlfriends and a Brad-Alike swaggers in. You lean back and sigh under your breath:
Mmmm, that's prime beef!
or
Mama, I been a good girl, please buy me some of that

Get the picture?

So the old-english 'Cor....' fits in the criteria then??
