LW pickup lines:

"Hey baby, wanna get froze together?"

"Wanna make a little adaptation executor? Wanna practice?"

"I don't bite. Unless that's in your definition of Friendliness . . ."

"Wanna grab coffee and swap some memes?"

"There's a world in which we get together. Wanna make it this one?"

"The coin came up heads, so I guess you have to sleep with me."

LW pickup lines

"Are you an evidential decision theorist? Because if we get together that increases the probability the simulators are benevolent."

Also, along Yvain's lines, anything with the words "set of priors", "bimodal", "improper".

"Bimodal", perhaps, except don't use it as a metaphor for breasts.

If I were to ask you on a date, would your answer be the same as your answer to this question?

Girl: "Mu."

Liron: "Damn."

Annoyed Girl: No.

Me: Will you go out on a date?

Annoyed Girl: Hell no!

I see you've read Smullyan's autobiography. :)

"Maybe?"

"It wouldn't."

That last one was brilliant, thanks.

I'm a LW female. Ah yes, these would totally work on me.
