Corny Pick Up Lines — 60 That Are So Bad They're Good

There's a special magic in a corny pick up line. It's so predictable, so well-worn, so gloriously silly that it wraps around awkwardness and turns it into laughter. Corny pick up lines don't try to impress — they try to amuse, and that's why they work.

The best way to use them is with total shamelessness. The line being "so bad" is the joke itself. When you deliver it with a grin and a shrug, you're telling the other person: "I know this is ridiculous, and I did it anyway, just to make you smile." That takes real confidence, and confidence reads as attractive.

All 60 lines here are clean, wholesome and safe for any crowd. Whether you're at a party, a school dance or a family barbecue, these lines are guaranteed to produce at least one groan and one grin — and that's a successful opening.
