Nice one!! !! !
Did you ever get a response?
(...now THAT is Irony, Alanis!) xoxo
By the way, I wrote some poems about a couple of the worst pick-up attempts I was subjected to, and they go like this, if you're interested ...in fact, even if you're not!
(They're copyright, by the way) (not that I'm suggesting they're so good that one might wish to plagiarise them (ahem)):
Junk Male

Pt 1 - Sure Thing!
He'd cornered me at a birthday bash,
quite ignoring my audible sigh,
and drawled 'I'm a Hollywood writer, ya know'
So *I* said, 'Neither am I!! !'
Part 2 - Sasha, Distilled [you'd have to be over 30 to get that pun]
From the opposite seat, he'd leered and winked
'Tween Paris and Waterloo
At last he asked, 'Tu parles Francais?'
So *I* said, 'Non, pas de tout!! !'
Ey thenk hyou (you've binna wonnerful audience) xoxo
PS: ......yeh, AND those, Alanis!! (don't give up yer day job, love)

I used to work as a nightclub doorman and went through so many more of these than I can remember though there were a couple that still make me smile (or laugh).
"That's a lovely dress - it would look wonderful on somebody with the right figure!"
"Do you know, from the neck down you're really quite attractive..."
"Wow! Does your make-up artist study plastering at college?"
Needless to say, I was always seeking the laughter factor from my colleagues rather than actually trying to get laid - though you would be amazed at how often I got an unexpected response (my colleagues certainly were!)

It worked, did it?...And yet - here you are on a chat forum within what is sounding more and more like a pick-up-attempt opportunity posing as a genuine thread, accepting a cold proposal of marriage from a total stranger?
Things that make you go 'Hmmmmmmm.....'
...or - in your case - things that make your 'partner' go 'Mm....?!' ...followed by, "Who TF are YOU...and what am I doing here?!...followed by 'Hey! - where are all my clothes?! !! !" Still - what an amazing story to eventually tell the grandkids!
:
..."Ah, yes, Clarrissa...Harry...Quentin: I remember VERY well the moment when I asked your grandmother to marry me. She was turned to me already and said '...........' .....And here we all are!"

The military is after my weapon of a$$ descruction. I need a place to hide it.
My response, should you direct that at me, would be:
"Why are they? - so they can sh*g the enemy to death???! !! ...Or are you assuming that their resultant inferiority complexes will do the job of the artillery and sniper units for them?!...Or possibly even that they'll laugh themselves into an early grave?!"
...I COULD go on....
