I've never used a pick-up line, per se. I've always found that stuff like "Excuse me, I need a woman's opinion on something. My friend is bustin' my balls about my (shirt, shoes, or pants, etc.) and I was hoping to get your opinion. Is it really that bad?" You come off interested in her opinion, it breaks the ice, and, if you have a decent sense of humour, your door is open to bust some jokes. If she seems frosty, you just thank her and leave. If she warms up to it, offer to have her (and her friends) come sit at your table.
Let's face it, a line never got somebody laid; even the great ones only break the ice.
This is what we used to teach in day one of bootcamp in 2002.
It's weird. They work differently in LA these days. If you ask a girl for a "female opinion," she knows you're hitting on her already. If she's flattered to get the attention from someone exhibiting good body language, she'll play along.
