Angry Birds lol

I was playing this on my iphone while waiting on an appoinment. This girl was sitting in the lobby, noticed I was plaing it & started talking to me. She was asking me how to beat certain levels, etc. and wanted to know if I wanted to go get a bite to eat and play the game together on our phones. I was in a pissed off mood that day, so I declined. I thought it was quite funny that a game would lead to something like that.

Back in the day it was pinball machines. Later, in my time, D&D.

The only difference now is, you can hold your game in your hand.

...the video game, I mean...

Why do people love to call simply meeting someone out somewhere...a "pickup"? I guess it's an ego thing.

Why is having a common interest wierd? Maybe because this situation happened in a waiting room?

So many threads are started on the Relationships Forum here, by people looking to meet someone...then, others post in reply to find a shared activity that is interesting by both parties...

Bingo, it's that simple. Now let Life Happen.

Don't brush it off next time. Seize the opportunity.

That's not a pickup line. It's someone who (maybe) was interested and was starting a conversation with a common bond.

Yoi!

I wish meeting new people was more about having fun and not "adult fun". I so miss the days when I was a kid and would walk right up to a kid I didn't know, ask them their name and age and if they wanted to play. Life was a lot more fun.

hahaha, that wasn't a pick up. She had something in common with you and noticed, big deal. I do it all the time! No wonder every guy I talk to thinks I'm interested in him like that. oiy..
