10 Quick Do’s & Don’ts For Delivering Funny Pickup Lines

So far, we’ve only talked about which funny pickup lines you should use. In this section, we’re going to shift gears and talk about how you should use them. 

Here is a quick checklist of 5 dos and don’ts that you should keep in mind when using funny pickup lines. 

5 Dos Of Delivering Funny Pickup Lines

1. Use context-specific pickup lines

Always prioritize pickup lines that have some sort of connection to the context of your interaction with your crush. For example, when you’re talking to your crush about their favorite songs/ artists, that’s probably the best window for you to use this pickup line:

“I should sue Spotify for not making you this week’s hottest single.”

Without any relation to context, pickup lines feel forced and desperate. 

2. Deliver them well

‍Choosing the right pickup line is only half the job. The other half is delivering it well. This is especially true in the case of funny pickup lines where the delivery technique can make the difference between your crush laughing with you and your crush laughing at you. 

So, it’s always a good idea to rehearse how you’re going to deliver the pickup line before you walk up to your crush. Just remember not to overdo it- it shouldn’t feel staged. 

3. Make them punchy

‍Punchy lines ensure that the joke lands before your crush loses interest. That’s why, it’s really important to spend some time perfecting the words you’ll use to say what you want. 

4. Read the room

‍Before you decide to walk up to your crush and deliver your pickup line, remember to gauge the situation. Check your crush’s body language and energy- do they seem receptive and open to interaction? Who are they with? Are they busy with something? Light-hearted banter is appropriate for casual social settings; not serious ones.

5. Be prepared to continue the conversation

‍Don’t forget the main purpose of a funny pickup line: lighten the mood and break the ice. That’s it. Once the metaphorical ice is broken, it’s up to you, as the approacher, to be prepared with ideas on keeping the conversation going. 

5 Don’ts Of Delivering Funny Pickup Lines

1. Don’t be offensive or uncomfortably forward

‍Being bold, flirty, and humorous is one thing. Being offensive and crossing boundaries is another. Know the difference, read the room, and keep things light. That’s the safest way forward for everybody. 

2. Don’t let humor be your only strategy

No matter how funny your pickup line is, at the end of the day, what matters above anything else is whether or not you were able to build a connection with your crush. And if all you’ve got up your sleeve is a series of clever punchlines, it won’t cut it. So, always make sure you shift the conversational spotlight to your crush once you’ve made your jokes. 

3. Don’t try too hard

‍If the opportunity to use a funny pickup line comes up naturally, by all means, use it. But if it doesn’t, don’t try to drastically steer the conversation to manufacture an opportunity for yourself. That just comes across as desperate and awkward.

4. Don’t overuse self-deprecating humor

‍Self-deprecating humor is a really powerful way to get your crush comfortable around you quickly. However, if you overdo it, you’re going to end up making things intense, sad, and awkward. Moderation is key.

5. Don’t double down on failed humor

If a funny pickup line falls flat on its face, don’t try to force it to work by doubling down on it or explaining the joke. 

Instead, handle it with grace and acknowledge the failure by saying something like “Damn. Tough crowd” and/ or by changing the topic entirely. 

There you have it, you’re now equipped with everything you need to know to impress your crush. 

We hope the tips we shared in this post allow you to find the same kind of success in dating as Pete Davidson does.

Good Luck!
