Have a Cool Long Glass of Chinese Pirate Legs

Once again with the great entries! I enjoyed getting 19 20 entries over the weekend for the competition I’m in a bar - hit on me with 25 words or less.
A few new things - thanks to all the visitors from Loquax - it’s their 10th birthday so why not take a squiz at their website? There’s lots of competitions there (especially for UK folk).
Some people too have reported that the email that they should receive when their entry is sent - isn’t getting to them. So if you’re posting an entry and not getting it in your email a few minutes later leave us a little note here!
Anyway on to the winner - *pregnant pause*, but first the runner ups.
I think some of these are well worth writing up as there were quite a few good entries and it was hard to choose a winner:
- Do you work for UPS? cause I could’ve sworn I saw you checking out my package.
- Baby, you can format my hard drive anytime!
- Can I buy you
a tall cool glass of me? - Get out the defibrillators, baby… because my heart stops when I C U.
- Roses are red, violets are blue: Let’s have coffee together, just me and you.
- I’m a pirate, baby; let me put my peg-leg in your booty.
- I saw you last week. In the same clothes. You can put them in my washer overnight if you want.
- I’m Chinese… take me out.
- Concrete’s cold,
Chilling steel bars.
There’s nobody else.
Eternity’s ours.
Your figure’s stunning,
Your smile’s swell.
My only love,
In this cold prison cell. - I think I like you - you remind me of your mother.
Wait. That came out wrong…
You remind me of MY mother?
(Damnit, not again…) - Did you hear about Britney Spears’ new single? It’s called ‘Hit On Me Baby One More Time‘. ba doom tish!
- Your legs must be tired because you’ve been running through my mind all night.
- Help the homeless. Take me home with you.
- Spirits low, finances chronic, in a bar would be the perfect tonic.
- I take a polaroid of you, stick the photo over the picture on a ‘Queen of Hearts’ playing card, and hand it to you.
Beautifully done - tacky, some not so appropriate, some just funny and may work. However I challenge anyone this valentine’s day - to go and give someone a ‘roses are red, violets are blue’ poem and seriously think they would get a result from it (result = positive response).
The winner though? Oh the winner - I wanted to give this winner the dollar because I thought that they deserved it from just the sheer fact that it may actually work. Take heed all of you lonely people out there wishing for a date, here is the best advice I can give you.
Hey
Michael - enjoy your dollar! Don’t spend it all at once, maybe you could buy someone a drink with it this Valentine’s day
