[–]Elshar 4 points5 points ago

I think you proved his point.

[–]rhb95 0 points1 point ago

Neither of those

[–]dsr541 1 point2 points ago

Clearly he is not. Otherwise he would've noticed this pic the 15 times it's been on the front page before.

[–]billiarddaddy -1 points0 points ago

Ok, I can stop twitching now. Thanks!

[–]AverageNapkin -1 points0 points ago

It seems that you are an observant man.

[–]shpongledsummer 151 points152 points ago

actually this line isn't all that bad if you say it the right way.

[–]King_Lem 89 points90 points ago

This. Also, accompanied by the right facial expressions and body language it can be killer.

[–]AATroop 70 points71 points ago

Too bad the first step is actually getting someone to approach you.

[–]King_Lem 16 points17 points ago

Not necessarily. Just keep your wit in gear when conversing, and something like this just might come up even if you approached her.

[–]gthing 5 points6 points ago

Put on some awesome glasses. Works for me and OP.

[–]AATroop -1 points0 points ago

I'll probably need them when I'm 40. Looking forward to it.

[–]fateswarm 1 point2 points ago

Meaning your cock is dangling outside.

[–]King_Lem 0 points1 point ago

I wouldn't be quite so overt, visually, but keeping a sexual tone to the conversation wouldn't hurt.

[–]cyclicamp 28 points29 points ago

"I'm afraid they're not for sale, but interesting trades considered."

[–]lifebinder 21 points22 points ago

"I'd be willing to discuss a trade over dinner."

[–]BelaKunn 3 points4 points ago

Agreed, but there are also times when it practically doesn't matter what you say if the girl is interested in you.

[–]sheerheartattack 2 points3 points ago

Well, I guess that just further proves his point. If you don't know what you're doing, you focus on what you say. If you do know what you're doing, you focus on how you say it, and you know that what you say isn't really all that important.

[–]jack_spankin -1 points0 points ago

Agreed, the line is money.

[–]MedalsNScars 0 points1 point ago

If I ever get that line used on me, I'm delivering the line exactly how Moss does. If they haven't seen the IT crowd, I just have to play catch-up. If they have, I get like 5000 bonus points right there.

[–]IAmTheBean 119 points120 points ago

From The IT Crowd for those who were wondering.

[–]xdestruxionx 71 points72 points ago

One of the best modern sit-coms

[–]ANUSBLASTER_MKII 76 points77 points ago

It really brings my piss to a boil when its compared to the Big Bang Theory.

[–]duckington 92 points93 points ago

But I think in a way you just compared it to the big bang theory. Simmering yet?

[–]Battletooth 23 points24 points ago

I think boiling piss is a severe medical condition that he really needs to get checked out.

[–]ksmash 4 points5 points ago

The vikings used to boil piss to clean clothes.

[–]compto35 3 points4 points ago

Romans used to use piss as mouthwash.

[–]Psylink 3 points4 points ago

Think of that next time you use the yellowish listerine.

[–]konan375 2 points3 points ago

Off to /r/nocontext you go

[–]graypro 0 points1 point ago

maybe he uses it for anusblasting?

[–]superwinner 3 points4 points ago

Weaponized piss.

[–]50_mike_mike 0 points1 point ago

Depends on his altitude.

[–]Smell-my-greatness -1 points0 points ago

Meaning it's far superior to The Big Bang Theory...

[–]Stewie977 6 points7 points ago

You should also check out Black Books, it's super funny and has the same writer as IT Crowd

[–]xdestruxionx 0 points1 point ago

Thanks I'll check it out!

[–]Smell-my-greatness 0 points1 point ago

Agreed indeed.

[–]aloneinlove 6 points7 points ago

The writer for the series is a redditor. Let's get him to do a sequel!

[–]cobaltgiant 3 points4 points ago

One of the best for only a scant 24 episodes.

[–]misterrespectful 2 points3 points ago

Doesn't sound like a very high bar there.

[–]xdestruxionx 0 points1 point ago

What sit-coms are better? I'd like to know so that I can better educate myself.

[–]TheRollingBones -1 points0 points ago

Arrested Development, Community, Seinfeld, The Office (US and UK), It's Always Sunny, Workaholics, Parks an Rec, 30 Rock, New Girl, are some of my mostly newish favorites

[–]Smell-my-greatness 1 point2 points ago

That's in your humble opinion, of course... I beg to differ, apart from the UK orifice that is.

[–]TheRollingBones 0 points1 point ago

Well, of course. I meant some of MY recent favorites. But if you don't like any of those, what comedies do you like?

[–]dudeface_man 0 points1 point ago

Really?, I like watching it, but its certainly no Peep Show or anything by Ricky Gervais

The UK really doesn't have a lot except panel shows these days.

[–]Nerdpie 3 points4 points ago

You've got Doctor Who and Sherlock.

[–]dudeface_man 0 points1 point ago

Not sit-coms

[–]Nerdpie 0 points1 point ago

Oh, I didn't know you were talking exclusively about sitcoms

[–]horseflaps 1 point2 points ago

Peep Show is the bomb.

[–]superwinner 6 points7 points ago

Part of me wants this show to remain a cult favourite forever, but another part of me wants it to go mainstream so my friends will stop thinking I am weird for liking it.

[–]StylePointsX 7 points8 points ago

I'm in the UK, it's pretty mainstream over here (or at least amongst the people I talk to)

Makes sense considering it's a british show :P

[–]grotgrot 7 points8 points ago

Presumably everyone is finally remembering the new number for 999.

[–]UnknownReddit007 4 points5 points ago

....3.

[–]Tokumaru 5 points6 points ago

I'm in the US and it's pretty mainstream over here. Or at least amongst the people I talk to.

Shit, maybe I'm just in the UK and don't know it...

[–]superwinner -1 points0 points ago

Canada here, its a virtually unknown show.

[–]anduin1 1 point2 points ago

theres some people that like to keep shows like this on the quiet, don't let them turn into runaway hits for fear of them falling off in quality. The US Office is a prime example of a show gone on too long and coming up with more and more outlandish story lines.

[–]Bitter_Idealist 4 points5 points ago

I'm not wondering at all because this gets reposted all the time.

[–]Datkarma 7 points8 points ago

Who is that actress?

[–]FlourideToothpaste 0 points1 point ago

[–]Toast_One_Seven 2 points3 points ago

Love it. Don't enjoy the laugh-track, though.

[–]CommonsCarnival -1 points0 points ago

Ok, that's it! I'm going to watch start watching it. Is it on Netflix?

[–]sknewytboy 0 points1 point ago

It is.

[–]Unlucky_Rider 0 points1 point ago

Is that the guy from Garth Marengui's (sp?) Dark Place?

[–]Smell-my-greatness 0 points1 point ago

It is

"5,589 up votes"

Apparently it will.

[–]ilikefacts 1 point2 points ago

I decided to upvote apply cold water to burn because it makes no sense.

[–]ChunkBunny 18 points19 points ago

You have these guys, then you have the ones who think every woman who speaks to them is flirting with them.

Both are adorable.

[–]omnilynx 10 points11 points ago

One is creepy.

[–]nothingtoworryabout 2 points3 points ago

A thread about social awkwardness, cue the creep comments.. 5, 4, 3, oh wait. Yeah, somebody already started calling socially awkward guys creeps, no, we don't need the countdown anymore.

[–]omnilynx 0 points1 point ago

Actually, I specifically said only one of the two socially awkward guys is creepy.

[–]tinkyXIII 0 points1 point ago

But every woman that speaks to me is flirting with me. All of my female friends confirm this, and what reason would they have to give me false hope?

[–]ChunkBunny 0 points1 point ago

"Sir, would you like fries with that?"

"Sorry babe, I'm taken."

[–]omnithrope 10 points11 points ago

I wonder how many times Reddit can post this exact picture and sentiment.

[–]OneMillionDollHairs 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, I'm usually not too worked up about reposts, but I see this exact fucking picture every 2 weeks or so, and there's never any variation on the joke, just "this is me lol".

[–]SuperProducer 14 points15 points ago

Solid Gold.

Hands down one of the best shows EVER.

[–]turboknight 7 points8 points ago

According to reddit, this is the only joke the show has.

[–]TROLOLERT 0 points1 point ago

It might be.

I watched a few episodes, couldn't find any jokes worth plastering on an image and reposting endlessly.

[–]no_shut_your_face 6 points7 points ago

You didn't get the jokes on the show? Did you try turning it off and back on again?

[–]TROLOLERT -1 points0 points ago

Did you try turning it off and back on again?

LOL THAT IS SOME BRILLIANT "I.T." HUMOR!

TURN IT OFF ... AND THEN TURN IT BACK ON AGAIN!

OH MY GOSH LIKE AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE! THATS SO FUNNY!!!

[–]lasercow -1 points0 points ago

tried the first part. worked out ok.

[–]man0man 4 points5 points ago

So what does this screencap have to do with you?

[–]cubistpanther 4 points5 points ago

Yeah I like to think this is the case with me, instead of no one actually flirting with me, which is much more probable to be honest.

[–]lasercow -1 points0 points ago

how insightful.

[–]JTDeuce 3 points4 points ago

Don't worry about it OP. I never realize they were flirting until weeks later.

[–]DoctorNose 4 points5 points ago

cue four minute laugh track

[–]infamous-spaceman 1 point2 points ago

Actually IT Crowd does a pretty good job of having a less obnoxious laugh track than a lot of shows. It doesn't have the long pauses for laughter that a lot of shows have.

[–]lasercow 1 point2 points ago

this is like arguing about whose shit smells the best.

its all shit, one shit smelling less bad doesn't make laugh tracks even slightly tolerable.

[–]infamous-spaceman -1 points0 points ago

Laugh tracks aren't really bad unless they take long pauses and ruin the flow of the scenes. MASH, IT crowd, and Seinfeld all had laugh tracks and were all good shows. Part of that is because the laugh tracks never got in the way of the timing of the show.

[–]lasercow 0 points1 point ago

Laugh tracks are kinda charming when watching old shows like MASH. Seinfeld is so brilliant that it makes up for the laugh track....but honestly it can only detract from a show....notice how shows with laugh tracks are disappearing

[–]Magalaquoff 1 point2 points ago

I heard they have a live audience.

[–]Zhumanchu 1 point2 points ago

Reminds me of one time in High School:

"I like your pants, they're really stylish"

Caught off guard by a girl complimenting my pants of all things. Resisting joke explaining how they would look better on the floor

"Yes, you do!"

scuttle off awkwardly

I would actually not tune in to the fact that she was flirting if i was in that position.

This really bothers me, because when i think back girls have tried flirting with me on several occasions, and i have been oblivious to it :(

Hello all - what show is this?

[–]karanj 2 points3 points ago

The IT Crowd. British comedy, sadly canned.

[–]obi1andkobe 0 points1 point ago

Worth watching? Is it netflix ready? Or must I upset RIAA to watch?

[–]karanj 1 point2 points ago

I'm not in the US, but as far as I can tell with a Google search it's available on Netflix. Well worth a watch if you get IT/geek humour :)

[–]obi1andkobe 1 point2 points ago

Being an IT guy for 7 years, I hope that I do or else ill find a new career.

[–]TheProdigyX 0 points1 point ago

i can barely code java script :( dammit, i wanted to watch it

[–]Nerdpie 0 points1 point ago

It doesn't take much to get the jokes. I'm awful with computers, but my mother used to work with IT, so I get most of it. It's a brilliant show; you should watch it.

[–]KRZ-111 1 point2 points ago

What is this show? I see gifs and pictures everywhere and they seem rather clever, but I need a source.

[–]wamsachel 3 points4 points ago

The IT Crowd. It's worth looking into.

[–]KRZ-111 0 points1 point ago

Lovely, another British show to get addicted to. I'll put it on the shelf next to my obsession for Sherlock and Doctor Who.

I think it's worst to never be aware you're flirting, I'm a guy who's only interested in one girl (that's another story though....it's insane, and has a sad ending)

anyways, point is, that gets you in trouble everywhere you go...and a stalker here and there (also another story, but it's like one of those horror movies that have the fairy tale endings)

I'd rather be unable to flirt honestly

sorry for the ramble, upvote for your troubles

I don't know, this show but if he said that with a smooth smile and some eye contact it could be flirty.
