At present, Cebu is hailed as one of the best places to unwind and to party at. As you can notice, Cebu is strategically packaged as a best party hub – a progressive city. One thing that makes Cebu a good party hub is strategic locations of each party clubs, pubs, bars cafes and restaurants. Apparently all these spots are advantageously located in areas that are most accessible to the Cebuanos and to anyone who loves to party for that matter; of course, compared to other large cities in the country, Manila for instance — it is going to be a more exhausting idea to unwind and party than just to sit at home and relax, because the time frame of your party time will all be consumed by your travel time, and not to mention the costly travel expense. Not only that, night life in Cebu is a lot safer and out of harm’s way compared to the night life in other major cities in the country. With that, we can actually claim that indeed Cebu is the best party hub in the country.

This will intrigue her, to say the least, as she will wish to know “hey, how come not me?”

No. 6

“I’m new in town and can’t find my way around; could I have directions to your place?”

A nice to line to use if you a city newcomer, she may even reply with “where from”. Don’t use this if you’re already a local.

No. 5

“I may not be the best-looking guy in here, but I’m the only one talking to you.”

Note! Only good looking guys must use this one! If a guy uses this and he is ugly, then it’s a sign of insecurity, which is a huge a turnoff. It’s a down-to-earth line really but use with caution cause some women might get offended.

No. 4

If you ever spot an attractive woman and would like to approach her, this line is funny in a childish manner and women tend to laugh off funny lyrics such as this one.

The Top 10 Worst Pickup Lines

No. 10

“Hey, I was just thinking of you! Okay, I’m all cleaned up now though.”

Makes you look like a 12-year old kid, she may leave the room instead of leaving the place with you.

No. 9

“How would you like your eggs for breakfast: scrambled, boiled or fertilized?”

Not a smart move, women dislikes sexual references and this also alludes to pregnancy.

No. 8

“What do you say we go back to my place and do some math? Add the bed, subtract the clothes, divide the legs, and multiply!”

Don’t use long lines such as this, she might have been history by the time you finish this one.

No. 7

“You might as well sleep with me because I’m going to tell everybody we did it anyway.”

A slap on the face is highly expected with this line, she might say that “be sure to tell them that I was good.” but chances are minimal.

No. 6

“Hey babe, do you know that my bedroom is soundproof?”

Pretty lame and assuming, you’re speaking as if you’re assured that you’ll get the action tonight. On the other side of this line, it also implies that once you get her to your place, no one would hear her scream… *gasps*

No. 5

“Oh, I’m sorry, I thought that was a Braille name tag.”

Good for you that you know what Braille is… Generally speaking, lines that could be used at porn conventions are of no use in mainstream settings especially when you’re thinking of fondling her breasts without consequence.

No. 4

“I just want to tell you that you have a price to pay for being this cute, and I’m here to collect… your phone number, that is.”

It’s fairly witty, but drags on for too long. And she’ll expect some celebrity to burst onto the scene and pitch you a collect-call phone program.

No. 3

“Did you know women are like parking spots? All the good ones are taken and the rest are handicapped. Which are you?”

Come on! Why would you compare a woman to cement wherein cars park?

No. 2

“Can I buy you a drink or do you prefer the cash instead?”

Note! Implying that she is a hooker will surely not work. Leave this to the true hookers and just offer her a drink instead.

No. 1

“If you’ve lost your virginity, can I have the box it came in?”

Are you asking her whether or not she’s a virgin? Why not ask her whether it’s that time of the month while you’re it? Leave the references to her box and your tools out of the dialogue, if you want to leave the bar in one piece.
