Devastatingly beautiful dates, sumptuous excursions and scintillating conversations are all benefits of the single life but contrary to popular belief, there is a downside to being relationship-free: the torture of being subjected to stale, decades-old come-ons is penance for all that fun. In a survey taken across a range of age groups, geographical borders and lifestyles, we have compiled the top 10 worst pick-up lines that have sullied the ears of singles everywhere:

1. “What’s your sign?”
The epitome of cheese, this line — which has been around at least since the Beatles came to America, though some researchers say it could be almost 2,000 years old — ranks as the very worst line in dating history. The fact that it’s still in use says a lot about the decay of our society’s standards and the glaring desperation of some singles.

2. “Pardon me, I seem to have lost my phone number, can I borrow yours?”
Maybe this was funny around 1910 or 1915 — back when the telephone was a novel appliance. It does not inspire smiles now, only scared and doomed looks. ...

7. “Are you religious? Because you’re the answer to all my prayers.”
Prayer is something that anyone who uses this tacky line desperately needs.

Huh? Where's "If I told you you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me?"

5. back in the day, you could say your phone number was in the book

8. “I’m not a rapist or a

murderer or anything like that, but I like your body and bodies in general.” (pause) “What I am is a sculptor, and I want to sculpt you.”

Not sure if it would qualify as a pickup line, but when a stranger approached me at a concert in the 80s and said that, it creeped me out. And no, he didn't sculpt me.

[AAO]

9. You made the right decision. Seems he doth protest too much!
