Corndog at a bar is still a great pickup strategy.

Just buy a corn dog, ask the bartender to send it to the person you fancy.

A random condog is hilarious, a wink from across the bar after that is hilarious.

But then the beauty comes in, it's free food, who turns that down? And they have the option to eat it sexually while mainting eye contact across a bar while trying not to laugh.

All around good strat. Will corndog again.

I’m glad you mentioned the wink. The whole move breaks down without it.

For all the times this would fail, the few times it would succeed would totally be worth it

would you even want someone for whom it fails? it's a good filter in that way

I'm saying, at the very least, it's a cheap laugh
