20 Cheesiest Pick-up Lines to Use on Graphic Designers

Posted Thursday, 23 July 2009 by Peter Alexander in Design, Entertainment, Photoshop
If you’re looking to romance a graphic designer, we can help. Here are some ice-breakers cheesier than Cheez Whiz guaranteed to help you find someone to love, to hold and to go halfers on a new copy of Photoshop CS4 with you.
  1. I wish I had an Eyedropper to capture the color of your eyes.

  2. Has anybody ever told you that your teeth have perfect kerning?

  3. If you were a logo, it would be for a really premium brand.

  4. I’m just like a global nav; I love to be on top.

  5. Come back to my place and I’ll show you a really naughty way to fill up some negative space.

  6. Would you like to lorem ipsum dolor sit on my lap?

  7. If I went to a stock photography site and typed in the keyword: “sexy”, I bet there’d be a picture of you.

  8. I couldn’t help but notice your eye path went right to my smudge stick.

  9. If I hit Shift + [ will it increase the hardness of your brush?

  10. Just looking at you from across the bar, I could tell you display high Brightness and Vibrance, and have multiple Layers.

  11. You look perfectly put together. Do you display this well in IE?

  12. I like my fonts sans-serif, and you sans-pants.

  13. If you bring the tool, I’ll bring the color palette.

  14. I dig your look and feel.

  15. If you like what you see now, wait’ll you look below the fold.

  16. Let’s “Skip Intro” and just go find a hotel room right now.

  17. When I serve you breakfast in bed tomorrow, would you like your coffee with cream and sugar, or do you prefer it #000?

  18. Do you want to touch my Bézier curves?

  19. What if I told you the fly on my legs opens quicker than a 500kb JPEG file?

  20. Mind if I take you for a usability test?

The Global nav one is killer. You're either a designer yourself or you've had your heart broken by a cheese illustrator.

I think some one should add "If only Helvetica Neue what I would like to do to you..."

Love it.
By Bhop94 on Friday, 24 July 2009 3:35 AM
how about:
What Pantone are your underwear?
Would you be interested in exploring a figure/ground relationship?
My Haus or your Haus?
You're turning my descender into an ascender. (too dirty?)
How many levels of progressive disclosure is that dress?

#000 should be full hex #000000 otherwise the color can be skipped and ignored on some browsers.. sorry :s

Is that Content Aware Scaling or are you just happy to see me?

You can adjust my curves any day.

I know just how you fill.

Baby got batch.

By rh on Friday, 24 July 2009 9:49 PM
First I think I'll stroke your curve, then I'd like to fill you.

21. Let's go to bed and do the baseline shift.

22. Adobe should've called it InDesire.

23. With you, I'd never stop().

24. I hate Comic Sans too... wanna dance?

25. When I saw you, I had an Akzidenz Grotesk in my pants.

26. You put the ho in Hoefler.

27. My parents are from Pakistan and Latin America... that makes me Palatino.

28. I'm sorry, is my div tag open?

29. I'm hotter than Yuri Arcurs.

30. Mind if I perform a press check on you?

31. You are one hot Firefox... how about some Private Browsing?

32. Bartender, a Distilled Postscript here for my new friend.

And of course...

33. "Dreamweaver... I believe you can get me through the ni-ight."
Awesome guys!

Gotta agree with firebrand...
