Accidental Lewdness

[Seldon2639]

I saw an article today on Fark discussing pick-up lines, and one of the suggestions for ones which is "effective" was:

"I want to be your tear drop, so I could be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips"

Obviously, it's meant to showcase cleverness/sweetness/desperation, but it becomes really, really, bad if anyone knows the Shakespearean use of "die" as in:

"I will live in thy heart, die in thy lap, and be buried in thy eyes" from Much Ado About Nothing.

Given the similarity between the Shakespeare and the pick-up line, I can't help but assume some allusion going on there. The problem is that in the Shakespeare quotation, "die" doesn't just mean "cease to live" but "to experience orgasm". I'm sure the lewdness of telling a woman you'd really like to orgasm on her lips was accidental, but I find it hilarious nonetheless.

Do you guys (and girls) have any examples like this, where something is only lewd, raunchy, or a double-entendre because someone missed something?

Gotta say...probably not. Not unless you count quoting that entire exchange between Hamlet and Ophelia before the play, which essentially translates to "Hey, wanna bang?" "Now? What, are you crazy?"

First of all.

Who's bright idea was it that THAT might be a good pick-up line? Maybe it'd work in a sappy RPG, but nowhere else. Boy.

Veering off topic for a sec, i've read of a study that showed that sickly-sweet and insincerely flattering pick-up lines do NOT work very well. What seem to work better are simpler compliments and, yes, remarks about the weather and other universal topics.

As for the original post, one of my guy friends hit on a waitress by telling her that he liked her sweater; everyone nearby interpreted that he liked what she sported INSIDE it; he did not get her number. Har :B

Pick up lines are like Godzilla movies, they just get shittier and shittier as time goes on.

My friend was playing uncharted 2 online and he did that thing where you grab someone from hanging and pull them off the edge. He goes "I just yanked that guy off" I reply with "you would, fag"

Heres a good pick up line, "Nice shoes, wanna fuck?". And yeah thats about as good as your ever gonna get.

I've been waiting for this moment...

A church near my house said, "The best position is on your knees".
To everyone's surprise, this is not a lie. It actually said that, among other things I cannot remember.

And it seems I can't find the news story "Man Beats Off Cougar With Bare Hands"

EDIT: FOUND IT!

It's really quite simple- make sure the person you use it on isn't an English lit. student, and away you go.

The word of the day is legs, lets go back to my place and spread the word

 

[MrSnugglesworth]

Whenever I play Halo.



"Guys coming up the ramp"

"Hold on, I'm coming"

"More, coming on to the platform"

"Wait up, I'm coming"



I laugh whenever I hear people saying stuff like that, and I just can't help myself.

Yay! Someone who is as immature as me!

I make a lot of sexual double entendres because I find them bloody hilarious.

I can tell I like euphemisms too much because once I found out what "die" meant in Shakespearean I was all hornified.

Yeah I'm sad...I know.

Not that they were ever good to begin with. Pick up lines that is, not Godzilla movies.

Was Shakespeare just using die as a substitute for the French le petit muerta expression? (sorry about the lack of accents and or spelling). It sort of follows the same train of thought.

There's no evidence of a direct connection between Shakespeare's use of "die" as a euphemism for orgasm and "the little death" ("le petit mort", since you'd combined french and spanish a bit), but it may follow the same logic. I'm not sure what that logic is, mind you, but whatever.
