Because Matt joked earlier that the (now annual) WordCamp Genius Bar would be available for dating advice throughout the day, I decided to run with the idea and compile a list of terrible potential WordPress pickup lines while helping to man the stations. The first two below are mine, while the rest can be attributed to my fellow (read: ACTUAL) geniuses.
- Would you like me to extend your WordPress?
- Do you want me to show you my plugins?
- Help me extend my platform.
- I’d like to fiddle with your widgets.
- May I commit to your repository?
- Is that a widget in your sidebar or are you just pleased to see me?
- Wanna click my turbo button?
- Can I Interest you in a QuickPress?
do_action('you');- How about you and me make a child theme?
- If I pinged you, would you ping me back?
- Let me help you open your source.
Feel free to chime in and comment with your own!
Very nice!
This is great.
No pickups involving header.php?
This is very funny, thanks for sharing.
I stumbled it for you, hope you will see lots of traffic!
Is that a blog in your pants? or are you just happy to see me?
Well done, team. My contribution:

It’ll take me allll night to install my plugin, baby.
“I can fix your blog, but I’ll need root access”
I’d like to export your trunk.
“Hey baby, can you show me your Loop?”
“My code is buggy. Can I have yours?”
Okay, that was a bad attempt.
(Akin to “I’ve lost my telephone number, can I have yours?”)
Try to explain to grandma what is the “overnight build”
Coder Girl, an ode to female programming, reminded me of your pickup lines post.

Some of the lines…
“Want to get in where I fit in like a plugin. This the true meaning of computer lovin.”
“Invariably, how would I pass this, when my coder girl gives me root access?”
“It always leads to an overflow, when it’s runtime, and we take it slow.”
“She’s got a data stack that’s straight stunning, no mismatch, exceptions, or debugging.”
“She’s not wrapped in Flash. All she wants is Java and a shell to bash.”
One word. Hilarious!
Those are cool lines mine’s here.
“I beg you, please unzip it so I can plug it in your directory”
Peace!
“Do you want me to show you my plugins?” – hahaha. Too funny.
Here’s a great one: Let go back to mine and do all the things I’m going to tell my mates we did anyway!
I want you to be my first…comment.
