Surely you could talk about politics or current events??? ;)

Srsly though. When I was younger, it was usually about what you did last night or are planning to do the next time you knock back a few coldies. (which of course leads to a perfect opening for inviting 'the girls' along)

Isn't it like that everywhere with college aged kids?

you can't converse while getting a hand job? christ.

Do you guys have a TV and DVD player in your room? Pop in an R-rated comedy or cheesey horror movie, and make sure you have mixings for frou-frou shooters ahead of time. So if you guys can't think of anything to talk about, there's still something to do...but the combination of those things ought to lead to some sort of conversation, even if it's totally inane.

we men are looking for good conversation, not an endless stream of gratuitous sex with a bunch of empty headed bimbos. christ.

SEEZZ YOU !!!

My advice; no matter what you say, make sure you're grinning like an idiot when you say it. In my experience what you say doesn't matter so much, but if you say it and you look like Emo McEmo from Emo's-R-Us out for an Emo-ducation, then you're not going to pull.

Grin like a fucking idiot, all the time. Smiley people get laid. Frowny people don't. :D

lol...nice post there kiwi. Kiaora, and welcome to the cellar if you haven't been welcomed before.

Why thank you very much, er, Aussie. ;)

Tena tatou katoa!

I had a rather nice welcome just before. But yours is just as appreciated. :D

No worries mate. ;)

And just to get it out of the way;

"Six! Six! Sixsixsixsixsix!" :)

Chasers War on Everything /almost/ caught out our Prime Minister with that, but she managed a reasonably passable Aussie accent. :D

A way to woman's heart is through her stomach. And I've heard specifically through chocolate. I also heard if you can make a girl laugh that's all you need. Or just be a bomb ass listener, screw what your friends say if you're doing the...screwing! Or just be a gruff manly figure whom she'll swoon over your machoness. Or just be a nice guy whom she can genuinely connect to and care for.
Actually.........
This is about conversation starters isn't it, damnit.
I'm all for one liners, as cheesy and as bad as they really are:
"Hey girl, who took the stars from the sky, and put them in your eyes :cool: ."
I saw this on the show "The Pickup Artist" on VH1 at a club setting:

Guy: Did you know that 95% of girls masturbate in the shower? The other 5% sing.

Girls: Uh, no.

Guy: Do you know what they sing?

Girls: No.

Guy: You must be the ones who masturbate.

lol...you mean the woman that sounds like a man???

I don't, I just have my laptop that can play DVDs but my friend does. We realized we should of just put in a movie right away or separated the two girls since the group thing went downhill and we both are better with one on one conversation anyways.

Fresh, I want to use some of those pick up lines just to see how they react. I was actually going to do lumberjim's "are you interested in stuff...." line to see what she would do on Saturday but the girl I was going to do it to walked away after I said I was dressed up as an oompa loompa (I wasn't), she didn't appreciate the humor....

lmao...why would you say you were dressed as an oompa loompa? And what do you realy look like that she didn't see the humour? lol That last line just made me practically piss myself.

My friend and I left our costumes at my friends house on Thursday and he was gone so we couldn't get them. My friend was going as Pagoda and I was going as Dudley, yes I wore short shorts, from the Royal Tenenbaums (sp) because of our concert on Thursday and our band name comes from that movie.

But anyways, we both put on black long-sleeved collared shirts, mine had a design on it, and a tie. We actually looked like the guys from Green Day. But we were thinking of what we would say we were when we were walking there and decided we would say something ridiculous, wait for a confused look, then change to something else and confuse them even further.

No one besides that one girl asked me what I was so I didn't do that besides then.
