The worst chat-up lines on campus: A Valentine’s special

This is how not to ask someone out in Fruity


We went out on V day to hear some of the worst chat-up lines you’ve heard at Leeds…

Liam, third year

“The girl walked up to me, tapped me on the shoulder, pretended to pick something off the ground and said: ‘Excuse me, you’ve just dropped your standards.'”

Ella, third year

“Ella, congratulations you just matched with the fastest hips in Yorkshire – and these don’t lie, Shakira, Shakira.”

Sam, third year

“Step 1: Send a picture of a lime.

“Step 2. Do you like my opening lime?”

Alice, third year 

“I’m no photographer, but I can picture me and you together.”

Piers, Activities officer 

“Someone said ‘It’s my birthday, wanna fuck?'”

Ellie, first year

If my left leg was lunch and my right leg was dinner, you would be my snack in between meals.”
