20 Of The Worst Pick Up Lines That Will Make You Cringe According To 20 College Students

1. "You turn my software into hardware."

Giphy

Starting off with a good one, folks.

2. "We go together like hot chocolate and marshmallows...you're hot and I want to be on top of you."

Giphy

Not hot chocolate...it's too sacred...

3. "Are you a trap card? Because I'm falling for you."

Giphy

As much as I hate to admit it...this is pretty clever. But also: let me enjoy my game, dammit!

4. "I wish I was cross eyed, so I could see you twice."

Giphy

*queue the eye roll*

5. "Are you going downtown tonight?"

Giphy

This is, by far, the most commonly heard pickup line on East Carolina University's campus.

6. "Do you eat or drink? Because I think we should do one of those things sometime."

Giphy

No thanks...I'll just starve.

7. "If nothing lasts forever...will you be my nothing?"

Giphy

8. "Are you strategically arranged carbon atoms? Because you shine like a diamond."

Giphy

For all you science majors out there.

9. "You've got an ass-signment I'd like to finish."

Giphy

This one isn't even worth saying.

10. "You had me at cello."

Giphy

I love a pun...but pick up line puns are a no-go.

11. "Is your name Summer? Because you're too hot."

Giphy

Followed up by "you're going to have to make me strip down."

12. "You want to come muddin'? I'd love to get down and dirty with you."

Giphy

I'd love to take a shower, actually...just not with you.

13. "Are you a Gryffindor, or do you mind if I Slyther-in?"

Giphy

"I'm a Hufflepuff, actually."

14. "Are you a haunted house? Because I'm going to scream when I enter you."

Giphy

THE HORROR OF THIS STATEMENT. I have never hated anything more in my entire life.

15. "They say Disney World is the happiest place on Earth, but they've clearly never been next to you."

Giphy

16. "Do you have a name, or can I call you mine?"

Giphy

Nope...my name's Anna. Nice to meet you.

17. "If I told you I work at Home Depot, would you let me handle your tool?"

Giphy

*Takes off tool belt and throws it across the room*

18. "Do you have an ugly boyfriend? No? Do you want one?"

Giphy

As far as pick up lines go...this one isn't the worst.

19. "What's your favorite color? Mine's the color of your eyes."

Giphy

Ah, how original.

20. "Want to register your number in my PokeNav?"

Giphy

And, lastly... is it bad that I kind of like this one?

Like I said earlier, pick up lines are so last year. Even though admittedly, some of these are funny, trust me when I say it's a type of funny you don't want to be at the other end of. So, ladies and gents, let's stop with the pickup lines.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

What It’s Like To Be A Strong Woman, As Told By Blair Waldorf

Queen B sums it up for us.

Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
