The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS June 27/2020

“Coffee, Tea, or Me ” by John W. Howell © 2020

“Flirty?”

“What did you say?”

“I’m trying to figure out a flirty line.”

“You going bar hopping tonight?”

“No, it’s nothing like that.”

“Ah. The Linda Hill Saturday craziness.”

“Yeah. She says to use a flirty line or write about “Coffee, Tea or Me.”

“I remember that was the title of a book that turned out to be a fictitious memoir of flight attendants in the 60s.”

“Thank you, Daniel Webster. I still need to write about a flirty line.”

“How about, ‘Did it hurt when you fell from heaven?”

“OMG. No wonder you don’t have anyone. Where did you get that line?”

“I just Googled ‘Flirty lines.’ There are sixty of them.”

“Let me see that. There are really bad.”

“Oh, I don’t know. This one is cute, ‘I’d say God Bless you, but it looks like he already did.'”

“Gag. You’re not helping.”

“Is it hot in here, or is it just you?”

“Stop. I think I’ll just go with the ‘Coffee, Tea, or Me.”‘

“It’s been done.”

“When?”

“Up top when I explained the book ‘Coffee, Tea, of Me”‘

“Uh, Huh. So I guess we will amble to the bar.”

“‘Blow in my ear, and I’ll follow you anywhere.”‘

“You are disgusting.”

“You don’t need keys to drive me crazy.”

“Enough.”

“You’re buying?”

“If you’ll stop with the flirty lines, I’ll buy?”

“My job here is finished. Let’s go.”

“You did all that on purpose?”

“Yup.”

      They all seemed a little icky to me. Of course what do I know? It has been years since I used a flirty line. (if ever) Thanks, Robbie.

    Don’t think I’ve ever seen or heard a flirty line that wasn’t cringe-worthy.

    “‘Your place or mine’? Got slapped a lot with that line, cried, went home alone, BUT, one time, it worked (thought at the time my tears got her!) and she went home with me, slipped me a ‘mickey’ and robbed me blind…who knew!!! 🙂

    Great post, and those lines are so cringeworthy. Mae West had her own version of flirty, but its x rated. Laugh out loud funny, John. 👍

    I think the lines would work John, you just have to say them in the voice of ‘Alexa.’ How about, “Would you like me to turn the lights off, and you on?” 🙂
