And the most annoying pick up line is.....

We went to a costume party on Saturday. This year we chose not to do the predictable 'couple' get ups, but rather chose our own garb and surprised each other. Rick was a pirate, a hot one I may add :), and I was a sort of wood nymph- you know, like a fairy. So anyway, all night I was given an interesting array of pick up lines, ranging from the pathetic to the unique. (Note that it was the few times when I was not by Rick's side that I was hit on, and of course it was by people we didn't know, not our close friends)

The most common line, the one that by the end of the night had me rolling my eyes the most, was a variation of this: "Do I get three wishes for you to grant? Because I can think of just one that would make us both happy."

I was not carrying a wand of any sort, nor did I in any way resemble a genie. But nearly every man I saw thought I had three wishes to grant. Wishful thinking, I suppose. I did, however, grant a pirate's wishes....
