Pick-Up Lines Trivia Quiz

Answer: U and I

The rather weak pun here is that the word "you" is a homophone of the vowel "U". The implication here is that the two should couple up.

Answer: What are your other two wishes?

The implication here is that the person being flirted with has just had access to a genie, who granted three wishes in the famous folk tale and Disney movie "Aladdin". Their first wish was to meet the flirter - perhaps they had simply wished for the perfect person, and there they were.

Answer: 'Cause you're the only ten I see

The context of the word "ten" here is that the person has rated the other on a scale of 1-10 for physical attractiveness and the one being flirted with is the only one who ranks as a perfect "10".

Answer: You're driving me crazy

The attempt here is to form a pun relationship between "driving someone crazy" and "driving a car". "Driving me crazy" implies that the person in question is so attractive and sought after that the flirter was losing their mind.

Answer: Because I'm totally checking you out

In this context "check out" has two meanings. In libraries, books are "checked out" to ensure that each borrowed book is documented and late fees can be applied if necessary. In the flirting context "checking out" implies looking at someone with sexual interest.

Answer: Because you're a knockout

In this context, "knockout" has a double meaning. In boxing, one way to win is to do enough damage to the opponent so that they cannot continue. This is called a "knockout" or a "technical knockout". The word "knockout" can also mean a very attractive person.

Answer: You sure have my interest

Yet another play on a word's double meaning. "Interest" can mean the price of borrowing money; effectively, banks make money by loaning it out to people and receiving it back with some interest in return. "Interest" can also mean a state of wanting to know more about someone - being "interested in someone" in a pick-up context essentially means you are attracted to them.

Answer: Your number's not in it

Most polite people would immediately wonder what is wrong with the stranger's phone and try to help or at least ask for details. Of course, the idea that the phone is malfunctioning because someone's number is not in it is absurd, but may get a laugh :)

Answer: When you fell from heaven

Anyone reasonable would probably respond: "Did what hurt?" to the smirking stranger asking the question. The response, "When you fell from heaven" implies that the person is an angel or too attractive to be from this Earth.

Answer: Because Eiffel for you

The poor soul is desperate enough in this instance to utilize the fact that "Eiffel" and "I fell" are (sort of) homophones. The Eiffel tower is a famous structure in Paris, France that is famous enough to be considered an icon of the city. Meanwhile "I fell [for you]" is shorthand for "falling in love".
