Older guy, mid 50's, hanging out at the bar. A nice looking thirtysomething lady sits down next to him, and they have a brief conversation, with the older guy trying to flirt with the lady and her being quite polite, but uninterested.

Then the older guy puts his arm around her, and starts pawing at her free hand with his other hand – "You're so beautiful, you remind me of my daughter…"

The lady immediately squirms out of his grip and moves to another seat, and the bartender (who had also overheard), tells the guy that it's probably time for him to leave.

We bought the lady a drink (after the creepy old guy left) as recompense for her trauma.

Ewww, ewww, ewww.

That's why I don't hang out in bars. I've always been twitchy that I'd spot an appealing woman from the back, approach her, and find out, when she turns around, that she IS my daughter!

I say let's hang him. That give's us 50's creepy looking guys a bad name. We are often times more honorable than those twentysomthing creepy guys.

Could be worse, you could be wiggling a dollar bill at the girl on the pole, only to find out it is your daughter…

Yikes! Crap like that will convince the clientel to visit other extablishments. Giving the lady a freebie was a smart move.

Alternate icky pick up line; 'Ya know, for a fat chick, you don't sweat too much.'

( Yes,…. I am a Cad of the first water! )

Uh…I don't get it.

huh?

pmwalt Supporting Member of TMP06 Dec 2008 8:52 a.m. PST

Yup, not only is it creepy, but probably the dumbest pick up line too.

I don't even want to think about it if he had succeeded, and the line worked…

Buff Orpington06 Dec 2008 9:18 a.m. PST

The ideal response would have been, "And you remind me of my late Grandpa", then move.

When you're daughters reach a certain age; let's say 18, you have an obligation as a father to stop going to strip clubs, stop going to bars to pick up women and cancelling the subscriptions to girlie magazines. If erm ah you ever engaged in those types of activities.

Sorry them's the rules.

Of course shortly after that the three really old guys in the golf cart wearing white shoes and belts with action master polyester stretch slacks in kelly green, fire engine red and bright blue show up to take you to Florida.

You'll keep us posted about the lines that work?

OK. I get it now. Thanks to Alex for that. grin

By the way, DRDHauser makes an excellent point. There should be a time to say goodbye to the "follies of youth" (EXCEPT for wargaming and collecting!). Of course, with the Internet and it's 'round-the-clock "gratification", a dude might never grow up! laugh

For me, it was trying to prove that my shiny white 1975 Chevrolet Caprice Classic was the baddest machine on the planet (which it really wasn't). That was 25 years ago.

<Q>let's say 18, you have an obligation as a father to stop going to strip clubs, stop going to bars to pick up women…..

shouldn't that have happened after you got married?

jizbrand06 Dec 2008 3:35 p.m. PST

It does. Except in those cases where we, fortunately or unfortunately, find ourselves single again and are trying to get back into the dating scene.

Raynman Supporting Member of TMP06 Dec 2008 4:50 p.m. PST

Why in God's name would anyone want to pick up someone that reminded them of their daughter, UNLESS, they are a perv of the first magnitude!
Too gross!

GoodBye06 Dec 2008 5:51 p.m. PST

shouldn't that have happened after you got married?

Absolutely although some of us have had periods in our lives where we had children that we were raising but weren't married.

If you think a single mom has it tough try being a single dad.

Could have been worse. He could have said "You remind me of my mother."

Lord Hypnogogue07 Dec 2008 9:07 a.m. PST

Saginaw, did that year Caprice have the wrapaound back window? If it did, then it WAS (the baddest machine on the planet) IMHO.

Last Hussar07 Dec 2008 10:56 a.m. PST

I only have sons- can I keep perving when they reach 18?

JackWhite07 Dec 2008 3:46 p.m. PST

Vice is nice, but incest is best.
