Is picking up men/women an art form?

I had this discussion with a couple friends of mine, girls and guys, about whether "courting" (term used loosely) is an art form? Obviously some people are more successful than others at it, but is it art?

My thoughts on the matter are yes. I compared it to music. With enough practice and education, you can become very successful. If an inexperienced guitar player writes a song, it's still a song. If a some dude strikes out with a dumb pickup line, it's still a pickup line.

Some guys are more seasoned. Having practiced their charasmatic traits can yield great results. Things like being able to dance, knowing how to get women drunk without making them aware that you're doing it, cooking, smooth talk, etc. Those things make it an art form in my opinion.

Could be debated.

No it's not an art, it's a skill, like juggling or a golf swing. Yes it requires a tremendous amount of practice, a degree of innovation and some creativity, but no one is ever going to call it an art form.

...knowing how to get women drunk without making them aware that you're doing it...

creepy.

picking up men and women is pretty easy nowadays...

just drive to any Home Depot early in the morning, and look for the people standing around as if they are waiting for someone...

the airport could also be a good place

and the bus station downtown could definitely work

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
