"You there, young man, you need a haircut."

The woman seriously looks like a male hippie/bum. For me, it's the hair and the outfit. Something about it...

[craigmachine]

tuthmosis wins with "scootch over for a second, i think i have a rock in my shoe"

---- it would totally disarm them.

its calm, random, and takes balls;

[Kickb]

Ask to pet the dog.

To the dog while petting him. "Oh aren't you the most precious little thing... you cuddlywuddly (typical baby-talk voice) lil' fella. Ic ould just eat you up. I have you tell you - you have the cutest... OWNER".

You have to deliver it with humor and a great smile for the last part. The slight compliment is ok since it's day gaming.

I've street tested this before (go to any park), at worst you'll get a surprised giggle. It isn't my line though, can't remember who I got it from.

Lol that's a good one

[sir_seducer]

''everytime i see a dog like this remind me of my ex...''

she : oh why?

me:i ll tell you....first tell me whats your name?

bla bla bla bla....

[Invictus]

I noticed she's sitting in front of some kind of café or candy-store? And she's holding her dog's crap in her hand (small plastic bag). Fuck it, I need to practice my approaches - in this i'm a total noooooob.

"So, you bought a watch while walking your dog, had to pick up his shit, and all the effort has been so exhausting you had to take a break in front of this candy-store. Tough day, huh?"

It's the first thing I could think of, took me about 10 seconds, and I'd say this with a friendly and harmless smile.

My first reaction is that perhaps it´s a bit too goofy and try-hard.

[Giovonny]

I wouldn't Game the chick, I would Game the dog!

As I was walking up I would first make eye contact with the Dog. (haha) When that happened I would make little doggie noises and put my hand out to pet the dog. As I started petting the dog, I would make eye contact with her and with a just say...

"what a cute puppy"

[thegmanifesto]

You guys are all blowing it. Ha.

This swoop obviously takes place in Italy.

I would roll up Custom Suited Down, smoke in mouth and say:

"Cane Carino"

[Invictus]

Cute dog?

[docsedated]

Both responses with in 3 seconds

1. Extend your hand out, let the Dog sniff your hand , pet the dog and say to the Girl "You Know you are Lucky to have this Dog"

and then depending upon the response can change change to "I meant to say he's Lucky to have you" ...........................to nahhhh I was right the first time


2. For the Library Chick .......... " You are messing up a Nice Dress, Stand up and Let me look at you properly "

[ManAbout]

The easiest approach for a girl with a dog is "Is it friendly?"

This will let you know whether it's ok to approach the dog or not. Dog owners appreciate being asked before anybody tries to pet their dog. And if the dog is not friendly, the odds that the girl is a bitch are much higher.

[Moma]

My line:
I'm frightened of big dogs but I'm comfortable with a little pussy..

[Tuthmosis]

Though I think gaming the dog is a solid approach (and, done right, would work for the various guys that suggested it), I gotta give "Dog Blonde" to Raliv:

"what is he? a german shepherd?"

hold the straight face.

This would distinguish him a little from all the sausages that transparently "pet her dog" everyday for a chance to talk to her. I'm frankly surprised all of you chose to completely ignore the screaming Swatch shopping bag.

This was my first instinct:

Tuthmosis [pointing at Swatch bag]: That's the fanciest poop bag I've ever seen.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Here's a new, totally different situation.

Setup: In the midst of a brutal dry spell, you find yourself doing a routine shopping trip at the local supermarket. While you're pushing your cart up one of the aisles, you see--at the other end--this girl goofing off with her girlfriend of roughly equivalent looks. In the process of joking around with her friend, this girl rides her cart down the aisle, and accidentally crashes into your cart with hers. Giggling, and a little embarrassed, she says: "I'm so sorry. I don't have insurance." For the moment, her friend is no where in sight.

   

[gringochileno]

"Dammit, I just redid the paint on this shopping cart! You're trouble, aren't you?"

Game on from there--keep the cocky/playful vibe going.

[Kickb]

Doesn't look like you have pants either jk

"Well do you have any good recipes? I'm looking to try something new"

[docsedated]

Make a Jexture of a Megaphone using both Hands and yell somewhat loudly " Blonde Alert Aisle 6, Blonde Alert Aisle 6 " vibe to something else.....

" Above was the first thing that came to my mind "

[CJ]

Yes!

Anyway, the first thing that came to my mind (using the 10 second rule) was, "Whoa, easy there Danica Patrick, the Indy 500 was last weekend."

[Giovonny]

I thought G's "cane carino" was gonna win that last one.

For the shopping cart girl:

Since she is obviously a little goofy. My first instinct is just to smile and laugh and make that same face back at her. She has already "opened" the conversation so she did your job for you. I would actually play along with her silly little car accident frame and say something like...

"drunk driver! I'm gonna give you a DUI"
"do i need to call security"
"you sooo just did that on purpose"
"So how are you gonna pay for this"?

When a girl is acting goofy, I just like to play along with it. She is already in a playful, flirty state, so I think its best to just keep that going.

[SFTD]

Since Giovonny stole my line, I'd start taking stuff out of her cart and say "This should make up for it."

[Samseau]

"Why do I always meet the crazy ones?"

[Handsome Creepy Eel]

"Do you know how much it cost me to get this cart? (with raised eyebrows)". THen conversation can flow into a number of directions, depending on her answer.

Otherwise, gringochieleno nailed it.

[Chad Daring]

Assuming she's American

"You damn foreigners never do!" with a grin

[Tuthmosis]

Closing the book on Shopping-Cart Girl, I'd say best line goes to SFTD. More than the rest, I think this would demand a reaction from her--at the very least a playful "hey!" And that's all you need.

My line was a little weak: [while pointing into her cart] "Don't worry: all that toilet paper padded the impact." Bathroom humor is risky.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Setup: This is a pretty straight-forward, common scenario, where you don't have anything special to work with. You're at a hipster coffee shop. You've picked up your order and you're on your way to the condiment-and-napkins island when you see this back. (Assume the front is kick-ass.)

I know I lack creativity but I always use the same opening line (or variations of) exactly to avoid I miss the opportunity because I'm thinking of what situational opener to use.

If she is blonde I say "You look like a swedish friend of mine". Then proceed to talk about my travels in Scandinavia.

If dark haired "you look like an Italian friend of mine" (I'm Italian, very pronounced accent, that helps to direct the conversation toward travel-italian restaurants topics).

It works quite well. Simple. Direct. Conducive to topics that raise my value (travelling).

[at350zguyy]

this is a great exercise and teaching method for noobs like myself. really appreciate this guys!

i would say something like can you pass me the skim milk? that way she turns around to look at you. i guess this would work best if that area is pretty crowded.
