I'm going to admit something: Although I
think over-used pick-up lines (
pretty
lame, I think really bad ones can be so terrible
that they're kinda funny in a corny Henny
Youngmanish way. Like,
我得坦白一些事情：
尽管我觉得那些被人用烂的搭讪方法很老土，
但是老土到一定程度，
你
会觉得它们有点
Henny
Youngman
式的幽默。
比如，
“嗨，我忘了我自己的电话号码，你能
给我你的吗？”实
在土的可以。
Apparently,
Franz
Wisner
has
a
similar
appreciation
for
them.
Dumped
by
his
fiancee
the
day
before
his wedding, he subsequently traveled around the
world to see what he could learn about
relationships. He wrote a book, How the
World Makes Love … And What It Taught a
Jilted Groom,
about his
experience
—
and devoted a
brief chapter to the worst pick-up lines in the
world. Here
are a few of the best. I
mean, worst.
威斯纳
(Franz Wisne
r)
显然对老土的搭讪有相似的见解。
在结婚前夜被未婚妻抛弃
后，
他周游
世界学习男女关系。他根据自己的经历写了一本书，
《世界各国人民是如何做爱的——一个
被甩新郎的感悟》
，
其中有一章就讲述了世界各地的最老土搭讪。
以下是其中最好的，
不对，
我的意思是，最老土的搭讪方法。
India:
印度：
“我们是否前世就已相识？”
“我们的父母已经帮我们订婚了。他
们只是忘了告诉你。
”
Nicaragua:
尼加拉瓜：
“如果你愿意做
我的土地，那么我就是一名农夫。我们的作物将会是香蕉。

“
