Any flirt will tell you: A good pickup line said at the right time can be a great conversation starter. But how do you come off clever and not clueless? The trick to pulling off a pickup line is never taking it seriously. You want to show off your charm and wit with a wink. You want to make the person laugh, not cringe. And you want to say it with breezy confidence—yes, that’s a thing—so practice with some of these.

• You look familiar. Did we take a class together? I could’ve sworn we had chemistry.
• If I told you I worked for FedEX would you let me handle your package?
• Are you a campfire? Because you’re hot and I want s’more.
• Is your name Google? Because you’ve got everything I’m searching for.
• My friends bet me that I wouldn’t be able to start a conversation with the hottest [guy/girl] in the bar. Wanna buy some drinks with their money?
• Are you a parking ticket? Because you’ve got fine written all over you.
• If you were coffee you’d be espresso, because you’re so fine.
• There’s something wrong with my phone. It doesn’t have your number in it.
• You look cold. Want to use me as a blanket?
• If you were words on a page, you’d be fine print.
• Do you have a sunburn or are you always this hot?
• What do you like for breakfast?
• I was so taken by you that I ran into that wall over there. So I’m going to need your name and number for insurance purposes.
• I don’t have a library card, but do you mind if I check you out?
• If you were a Transformer, you’d be Optimus Fine.
• You may be asked to leave soon, you’re making everyone else look bad.
• Can I take your picture to show Santa what I want for Christmas?
• My magic watch says you don’t have any underwear on. [Person says they do.] Oh you do? It must be 15 minutes fast.
• You look a lot like my next crush.
• Is your name homework? Because I’m not doing you, but I should.
