Default I am "Mr Smooth" - Dead on my game baby

I go to lunch today and see a drop dead lookin woman sitting alone at her table. She is sportin the Business Suit, the whole 9 yards. So, I walk by and see no ring. I then stroll up to the counter, sportin my work clothes (I work in the Grocery business fyi) and buy a $15 Gift Certificate and write the following on it -

Hollar back if ya wanna have lunch again, my treat

below I write my cell digits

I walk back by her table and hand it to her

My phone rings 10 minutes ago - Lunch tomorrow - her and I

LOVE THIS ANGLE, it's like Mott on Turf baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that sounds so incredibly tacky (mostly the use of the 'hollar'), and I am surprised that it worked. i'm a pretty attractive dude, if i may say so, and nothing like that would ever work for me. how many drinks, dinners, ANYTHING they wanted have i bought to no avail.

luckily i got one now and have no need for such smarmy, yet incredible, pickups.

Superlative!

I'm writing a sequel to my book, "Whiskey, Women and Wagering," to be titled, "Bourbon, Babes and Betting" and I'd be pleased to include this with your approval.

Look, I am a toothpick with a hat. I am a dead ringer for Dale Jr with a hat, but am bald as an eagle. She had to see my ugly bald head cause I ALWAYS eat at the table without my hat. Incredible, I don't know what she must be thinking, a goofy guy like me with my apron, my bone head work clothes, and here she is lookin all the goods sportin the business class clothes, legs to die for, hair that is perfect.

I'll update tomorrow evening. Or, maybe Saturday evening I know better, I am "Mr Smooth" as well as "Mr Take Your Time and Bite Your Tongue and Take A Couple Cold Showers"

Very cool 45 minutes at lunch today. We sit down and start the usual converstaion. She gets in her purse about 10 minutes into lunch and HANDS ME an envelope. I open and inside is a $15 Gift Certificate to a different restaurant down the street. She looks at me, smiles a little and asks, "You got any plans for lunch on Monday?".

Lord she smelled and looked good today, I love that fruity stuff women wear that comes from like Bed Bath and Beyond.

That is an excellent story man. The fact that you wrote "hollar back", got a phone call from her shortly thereafter, met for lunch, and got a $15 gift certificate back from her is insane.

Go play the ponies tonight dude and play some ridiculous longshots. They're bound to come in cause it's your friggin day. Best of luck.

Here's the opposite side as far as what would happen to me. I'd try it. Not get a call back. Go to the track tomorrow. Look to play a pick 4 that costs $75. Realize I only have $60 bucks cause I wasted $15 on some gift certificate trying to pick up some girl. Cut my pick 4 down so it only costs $60. A horse I throw out will win and pay $37. I'll lose my pick 4 thus my $60 as well. It'll pay $4000. Then I'll realize that if I didn't try and pull off this ridiculous stunt that I could have hit the damn thing.

Again, best of luck man.
