Isn’t just saying “Hi, I go to MIT” geeky enough?
And yes, angry nerds, I am just jealous because I’m not smart enough to get in.
Hey now. These are the oldest pickup lines ever. Most students would know them by the end of the second day of CPW.
“Hi, I go to MIT” is geeky enough, but it’s not a pickup line.
My personal fave isn’t on the list:
“Hey baby, would you like to integrate my natural log?”
How about “would you like to go to my room and see my hovercraft?” I used this in 1984, and it worked. We never finished the hovercraft, however.
My dear concave mirror, I wil come from infinity and converge at your focus
