"You look lost."

Shitty, but that was what popped into my head in 3 seconds.

Keep these coming, it's a great exercise.

"That exercise looks fun. Why are you doing it?"

But, in reality, I don't think I'd approach her, more for the bizzare situation than for her good looks. I'd probably miss the 3-second rule.

Tuth! This is an awesome post. Never let it die. Props man.

Damn... library approach! Never could do these.. uhhh

"Hey."
"Hey."
"Could you do me a favor?"
"What is it?"
"Please introduce yourself."

I'd have to go direct here

Will do--once enough guys have had a chance to chime in on this latest one. This time, I actually have another--and I think more difficult--one in the chamber.

What I can't decide is whether to include what I would have said at the beginning (with the picture) or later on, or even at all. (That is, while also respecting the unwritten rule, on the honor system: posting what actually popped into my head within the first few seconds.)

I think we should unofficially cast our votes on the best (and worst) ones.

If I had to pick a "winner" on that last one, it might have to be Fisto, with the idea of doing the same move with his flexible-ass legs, or Samseau, who snuck this little gem in at the end: "so when did street ballet become popular?"

Here's my line:

I'm surprised the library changed the dress code from sexy to unsexy.

Didn't mean to hijack this thread but for a bigger challenge how would you approach a set like this?

Post: #33

Have you ever seen a crisp 20 dollar bill?

Excellent, could be applied to Jogging, too. "Hey, you're on my track, I jogg here".

You should make this a weekly contest!

For library chick, the first thing my brain said was: "What book is that?"

Post: #37

Library Chick:

(Here a few that came to mind)

"hello"
"Cool shoes"
"hey, hows your research going"
"Cool shoes, do you study fashion?"
"Damn, those shoes are hot"
"you must be a fashion major"



2 Girls Sitting on the Bench:

(with a big playful smile)

"Damn girl, you're showing me your panties" !!

"Damn girl, you're showing me your panties...those look like the new Victoria Secret" !?

"Hey, whats up with you guys"

"How you girls doing today"

"Hey, do you know where there's a Starbucks around here?" followed by Roosh's "let me guess, you guys are from Latvia or Lituiania [or wherever]"

However, in reality I would probably be too much of a pussy to open them since I pretty much stick to women who are by themselves during the day.

That's not a bad idea. I'll try it out and see how it goes. Maybe I'll drop one at the beginning of the week and name "a winner" near the end. Meanwhile, I want other guys to feel free to upload pics of good scenarios they encounter in between.

Here are my thoughts for some rough, general guidelines. Please make suggestions.

Preliminary Guidelines for Weekly "Open this Chick" Contest:

1. Each scenario will include a brief, realistic setup and picture. I'll aim to have images with enough visual information to give us something to work it. No basic, "posed" pictures (e.g., smiling group of friends, at the club, facing the camera); overly cropped images; and ridiculously unrealistic scenarios. If you choose to upload one of your own, please try to adhere to these guidelines so we can all participate. Going forward, I'll number or title my pictures, to make it easier to reply.

2. To best reproduce a real-life setting, you should submit the best opener that comes to your mind within the 3-5 seconds it would take you to walk over to the girl. Don't mull it over--that's cheating.

3. For now, I'll name a "winner" after traffic on the last image has died down, or within a week (whichever comes first). This is a semi-democratic setting, so if there's an overwhelming reception for one opening, I'll just call the balls and strikes.

For clarity's sake, here's an updated image.

   

@hokie30: those are definitely some hot EU chicks, no doubt, but the tight cropping makes it a little difficult to "feel out" the situation.

That said, my first thought was: "can you guys scoot over for a second. I think I have a rock in my shoe." [sit down, take shoe off, and linger for a while talking]

My line for the two chics on the bench:

I'm so happy to see a loving lesbian couple out in public.

Post: #41

Library chick:

I like how you make a nice curve shape (draw shape from pointy fingers) from where I'm looking it would make a nice picture.... What's your name?

2 Girls on Benches:

Hi, let me guess...you girls are from Lithuania, right?
(Then follow with a playful guessing game and attempt to sit with them)

That country comment wouldn't fly as this is a pic of some girls on the street in Riga (Latvia). However, I would open them up with
"Can you tell me how to get to place XYZ"
or in Latvian say "do you speak English" and then work the exotic American angle.

Alright, I'm bumping this thread after every interested party got to chime in.

If you ask me, the best opener for last week's "College Library Chick" was Jim Kirk's little gem which, incidentally, I'm not even sure was directed at Library Girl.

Still, hilarious non-sequitur game with multi-purpose applications.

My first thought for this one was: "is this the self-help section?" I know: stupid. It's the setup to an old joke someone told me a long time ago, but the only thing that came to mind within the time constraints.

Post: #44

Here's a new--and I think trickier--one. No setup required.

   

Post: #45

"Let me guess...he's a mutt." Then get into a conversation about dogs, i.e. "well I know because my dog is black and white with a spotted tongue and blah blah blah" then transition and try to smoothly sit down with her, maybe pet the dog while doing it.

I don't think this one was too tricky, by the way. Dogs are great, if obvious conversation starters especially since I have one of my own. It's also a major plus if the dog likes you (they usually do) since the approval of her pet is one of those bullshit things that girls attach significance to (ever heard a chick gushing about her new boyfriend and how the dog just LOOOOOVES him?).

*let the dog walk up to you, start sniffing you*

"they say dogs resemble something about their owners."

"what is he? a german shepherd?"

Look at her, then stare down at the dog. "Hungry?"

If I were Vietnamese I would totally do this.

Ask to pet the dog.

To the dog while petting him. "Oh aren't you the most precious little thing... you cuddlywuddly (typical baby-talk voice) lil' fella. Ic ould just eat you up. I have you tell you - you have the cutest... OWNER".

You have to deliver it with humor and a great smile for the last part. The slight compliment is ok since it's day gaming.

I've street tested this before (go to any park), at worst you'll get a surprised giggle. It isn't my line though, can't remember who I got it from.
