Library openers

[Rossi]

Hey guys, just thought I'd ask what you guys like to use to disarm in a school/college library - sometimes it can be a challenge to open up a natural flowing conversation due to the environment you're in where you're supposed to be in a silent area, and the target is no doubt getting on with their studies.

Just wanted to hear what you guys use and keep up the classic posts, has me in tears every time!

What you studying

Here's what I always use:

1.


Dan: Hey what's up.
HB: Hi
Dan: Do you have time to talk, or are you too busy studying?


And of course, everybody welcomes a distraction from studying.

2.


Dan: Hey what's up.
HB: Hi
Dan: Is anyone sitting here? (pointing to chair next to her)
HB: No
Dan: Nice! [sits] My name's Dan

Wow, I gotta use that some day. It could be applied anywhere.

yep, superman's got the right idea. Stick to the generic stuff. You don't to say something that will knock her socks off just to sit next to her. Esspecially if its in a library ....

I'm going to help you young men out here and give you something gold! Humor always works best.

Sit across from the girl and pass her written notes. In your note state, "I'm writing you this note not because I am obeying the library's rule of silence, but rather because I am a mute and can't talk. I can also read lips if you just want to mouth your response back to me.

Ask her some entertaining questions...

Then write something like, "it kind of sucks being a mute because I can't impress girls with my verbal wit, so I must do it in writing and it kind of sucks when there is no paper around. But I have enough paper here to carry a 10 hour conversation with you. SMILE!

I am every women's dream, "a man that can't speak allows more time for the women to talk!" then write, "I'm an excellent conversationalist on all the internet chat rooms and instant messaging...how about giving me your e-mail address so that we can communicate further."

Write crazy stuff like that, then when the bell rings tell her you miraculously got your voice back and would now prefer her phone number!

i like this one...

if she's browsing for a book and she picks one up, say
"You're not really going to read that book are you? I read it last night, its horrible"

If they're doing vocab homework, not to uncommon in a library, mention to them that the word "gullible" isn't in the dictionary. It usually takes a while for them to get the joke, but it can work as an opener.

Tone of voice is very important for this one so you don't sound like some weird guy.
