The Lamest Line I’ve Ever Heard

by Angie on March 13, 2010

Last night my sister babysat ALL of my kids so that Jeff and I could go out on a date.

Free babysitting? A night out without 5 little ducklings in tow? A gift. Pure and simple.

Jeff and I decided to go to our favorite Indian restaurant.

There was a table right in front of me (it was behind Jeff) with 3 college students; two girls, one boy. I’m positive they were college students because they were talking loudly about college courses; using words like “empirical data” and the effect of X factors on ancient civilizations. I was listening to their discussion with half and ear wondering to myself how many years after college it would be before their pretensions ended when I heard this line:

“Do you know why I love hanging out with a bunch of girls?”

Of course the girls at the table eagerly awaited his answer, as I’m sure you are.

Don’t worry. I won’t disappoint you.

Here comes the Lamest Line I’ve Ever Heard in MY Life.

He said, “Hanging out with a bunch of girls makes my GENES happy when I consider all of the progeny I could spread around”.

Yes.

He did say that.

For real.

The girls simpered for a minute and then told him that he was “so lame”.

But, I swear to you. They ate that crap up.

Girls are so dumb. We really do make it easy for guys, don’t we? lol

I read that line to my college kid and her response to my question about why would a guy say that to his friends was:

“They probably aren’t his friends, he just wants to hook up with them.”

I am too old for this. I’m just glad my daughter is too smart to fall for something that ridiculous.

5 Evonne Twitter: _MamaJules_ March 13, 2010 at 8:02 am

Wow! And the girls fell for it? That makes it even worse!

9 Angie Twitter: 7clowncircus March 13, 2010 at 12:41 pm: That’s the perfect term for him.

Ugh! To be young and stupid again:-)

Wow, progeny, eh? Must have just learned that big new word in an Intro class & couldn’t wait to show it off.

12 Angie Twitter: 7clowncircus March 13, 2010 at 12:40 pm: My guess is yes. New vocab word for sure.

You should have heard their conversation. YOu would have died.

13 Stacia March 13, 2010 at 12:38 pm

Hope you didn’t barf up your naan. Though that would have served him and his happy genes right.

14 Angie Twitter: 7clowncircus March 13, 2010 at 12:40 pm: I DID almost spit it out!

15 Shell Twitter: shellthings March 13, 2010 at 12:56 pm

OMG, that’s horrible! Though, honestly, it’s like a line my own husband would say. He’s a big cheeseball like that.

16 T Rex Mom March 13, 2010 at 1:41 pm

I echo everyone else – totally lame. How did you refrain from shooting a horrible look?

17 Puna March 13, 2010 at 3:38 pm

I’m sticking my fingers down my throat…

18 Marla Hansen March 13, 2010 at 3:58 pm

Men….always thinking with their…brain.

19 Melissa Multitasking Mama Twitter: multitaskingme March 13, 2010 at 4:08 pm

His progeny? What a…well, I am too nice to type that word =)

20 Erica Twitter: mommysstillfab March 13, 2010 at 4:53 pm

I don’t know what’s worse: their pretentious conversation (no one
voluntarily discusses that stuff) or the “line.”

Were you kind of embarassed for him? Did you get “douche chills” as we like
to call them?

21 Jennifer March 13, 2010 at 6:13 pm

I don’t know what is worse, the fact that he said it or the fact that the girls fell for it.

22 Allison @ Alli 'n Son Twitter: Alli_n_Son March 13, 2010 at 6:53 pm

Wow. Just wow. That really is the lamest thing I’ve ever heard. I think my mouth would have dropped open in awe if I heard that.

23 Life with Kaishon March 13, 2010 at 7:16 pm

Oh. My. Gosh.
Was I ever that young and stupid?
I suppose 10 years ago I would have ate that up too.
Silly!

LOVE Indian food. Scrumptious! : )

24 Christie Twitter: 3CraziesAndMe March 13, 2010 at 7:56 pm

I pray to God that at least one of the girls was making the same disguested face that I am making right now. Douchy McDouch.

25 scrappysue March 14, 2010 at 1:11 am

no. way. youth is so wasted on the young! what a caveman lol

26 Lula Twitter: lula34 March 14, 2010 at 12:42 pm

I dunno what’s lamer…that he said such swill, or that those girls ate it up. It would’ve taken every ounce of restraint I have to prance over to those girls and say, “Ladies, PLEASE…let me school you…”

And then there’d be the requisite head roll, eye roll, and finger snap. Of course.
