Pick up lines are only a good idea if you're an actor in a paranormal tv show, and even then...not really.

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

c1.staticflickr.com

Pick up lines: lets talk about them. They're pretty generally regarded as cheesy, cringe-worthy, or an instant turn-off. Still, though, there are certain people out there that think they're an acceptable approach. It's 2019, people. Pick up lines should officially be left in the past.

In the spirit of letting them go, here are 20 of the worst pick up lines college girls have ever heard.

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.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

How To Adult

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
