I quite enjoyed the Cube last night, I don't think I got too many crotch buddy warnings however I got to talk to lots of girls.

I managed at final count to flirt with 34 women, with a fairly good response in general. I was trying out my chatup line;

Excuse me, do you know the average weight of a polar bear?
(No?!)
Just enough to break the ice, my name's Matt.

Mostly, they'd laugh and tell me that it's better than most lines they'd heard. However some did give constructive help. For example, according to one girl, the best chat up line is "Hi, can I buy you a drink?". And there was Rebecca who I chatted to for about 5 minutes, who seemed rather lovely actually. Oh, and the one who asked who'd put me up to trying the chatup line. And then the one who thought I was hitting on them to whom I replied "No, just wanted to see how the chatup line worked." which I now realise might not have been the answer with the most successful outcome.

I should've quit whilst I was ahead really, because on the way home I tried it with two girls we randomly saw on campus. Their were the only negative responses all night; "That's shit, sod off."

Admittedly, I quickly forgot about them because we were entertained by finding part of a rowing machine in a skip on campus and taking it back as this weeks beer trophy.

Lol... I was trying out that line last week at the union :p I thought it was you who'd told me it :o)

I had some mixed success too, but it made for a fun evening!

Perhaps you should combine the advice you were given with the line you already have as in:
"Just enough to break the ice, my name's Matt, can I buy you a drink?"
