8 Foolproof Pickup Lines
http://www.clipartpanda.com

The true art of a successful pickup line entails charm, wits, and, most importantly, no fear of failure. I myself have never been so good at sparking romance—until now.

Armed with over 900 pickup lines supplied by www.pickuplinesgalore.com, I embarked on a journey to master the use of these pick-up lines. I might add that it was a rather humbling yet empowering experience; I learned through every rejection, and strived to perfection with all of the night's victories. Here are some of the tips and tricks I learned while adventuring in the strange world of pickup lines.

1. Do not let a witty response dampen your enthusiasm.

If the response happens to be clever, do not worry. They're not brushing you off; it simply means you are dealing with a person who is just as smart and charming as you.

See? True love.

2. Never fear the nervous laugh.

A nervous "haha" or "lol" is a good indicator of whether or not they're flattered to the point of embarrassment. Don't worry, though; it's all part of the plan.

3. Try not to confuse the other person with an overly complex line.

Sometimes, you just have to keep it simple.

4. You can never go wrong with puns.

There's nothing that tugs more on the heart strings than a perfectly executed pun: just enough cheese, but not too much sarcasm.

5. You've struck gold if the receiver of the pun responds with another one.

Expect true love and affection if the other person responds with an equally as flattering pun in return; and, of course, never take it for granted.

6. Play to the interests and experiences you both have in common.

There was obviously something more than reactions going off during that lecture. Why not use that irony to your advantage?


Unfortunately for this pick-up line user, not even organic chemistry was enough to woo their sweetheart. They even typo'ed in disgust.



7. Sometimes, even the best lines fail.

No matter how clever or witty your line may be, some people are just too hard of a nut to crack—or are, quite simply, already infatuated with someone else.



8. Be persistent.

Sometimes, a person needs a little bit of a push. Using more than one line is a tricky undertaking—but boy, the results are sweet...

...sometimes.

Disclaimer: a successful pickup line is extremely subjective. One line may work on one person and have no effect on the next. Results may vary—use at your own risk.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
