I've always held that physical attraction trumps just about everything, therefore "Hi" is and will always be the best pick-up line.
But I've changed my mind.
Saturday night I'm showing my ID to the bouncer.
"You look like you listen to Prince," he says.
Cue hair flick, hoop earring touching, big shit-eating smile.
He wasn't even that cute, but I couldn't help it.
That one line said so much. About who he was and the girl I wanted to be.
And Prince is the perfect pussy catch-all. Go death metal and you run the risk of getting a cutter. Go too indie obscure and you look like you're trying too hard. Go pop and she'll roll her eyes and call you her grandfather.
Please note that this Prince thing does not translate over to text messages. Don't use "2" for "to" and "u" for "you" until you really get to know me. It makes doves (and vaginas) weep.
