The pick-up line is a classic part of growing up. Kids these days don't understand the power of terrible pick up lines.
Kids today court by sending Snapchat dickpicks. In the past, you'd have to use some serious wordplay. Sure, it was possible to get a hot date without pick-up lines, but would you really want to? No!
Classically lame lines like "Do you have a library card? Because I'm checking you out!" flourished in an age of experimentation. Young people swooned when asked, "Do you know Karate? Because your body is kicking." An entire generation fell in love with poetic sentiments like "Your father must have been a thief, because he stole the stars from the sky and put them in your eyes."
The legacy of the pathetic pickup line still lingers. Here is a list of the absolute worst pick up lines of all time. Please use them responsibly. Good luck out there.

Are You from Tennessee, Because You're the Only Ten I See
Beautiful display of pun-work. Probably wasn't effective in Tennessee, but it certainly got the attention of people out of the state.
Did It Hurt When You Fell from Heaven?
Classic line used in many high school cafeterias throughout the land.
Do You Have a Library Card? Because I'm Checking You Out!
This is the number-one way to get the attention of a brainiac.
Do You Believe in Love at First Sight, or Should I Walk by Again?
Yo, not gonna lie, this is a classic. You could feasibly keep walking by until you get the person's attention.
Do You Know CPR? Because You Take My Breath Away
Great strategy to get somebody to make out with you. Though they might be confused, because if you were in need of CPR you probably wouldn't be able to talk.
I'll Be Burger King and You Be McDonald's. I'll Have It My Way, and You'll Be Lovin' It.
While this line seems kind of rapey, it's not, it's just about burgers and how much love we will be making.
Do Your Legs Hurt from Running Through My Dreams All Night?
This one is not to be confused with a previous one, which referred to a daydream, this particular dream takes place at night. You must notice these nuances if you want to find a girlfriend.
Are Your Feet Tired? Because You've Been Running Through My Mind All Day
The idea that someone could be running through your mind and that makes them tired is a quintessentially awesome pick-up line. The key is to get into their mind, by telling them that they're in yours!
You Are the Reason Santa Even Has a Naughty List.
So, the idea here is that the person you are courting is so bad (like Michael Jackson bad) that they inspire people to do evil, and that evil is why Santa had to compose a naughty list. That being said, this line works every time.
How You Doin?
Classic Joey Tribbiani pick up line from "Friends."
