worst pick-up line (for a ginge)

I've heard some zingers over my single years (which equals all my years)...but one that I heard about a year ago will take the cake in my book.

I was standing in a bar in Knoxville, TN drinking my Bud Light, waiting for my friends to return from the bar minding my own business, when I noticed this guy looking at me.  I was not amused. 

He walked over to me and asked me "Is that your natural hair color?"  I just looked at him with that "are you effin' kidding me?!" face and he promptly said "Well, I just ask because I hear that redheads are going extinct." 

What am I?!  A f*ckin' dinosaur?!  Was he trying to help save my species by procreating with me?   I just confirmed to him that my hair was in fact naturally red and got my friends and walked away. 

I mean...that's perfectly fine to ask me if you had started with a "hey, how are you?" or "hi, what's your name...nice to meet you?" But let's not get weird the first go around.

I use to get the craziest lines and got some sort of version of "is that your natural hair color, wow it's so rare", while bartending during a giants game. I looked at him and said, yep! And I'm 4 month pregnant, would you like another beer sir? Haha!! It was a very proud moment for me!:)

Have mercy! I think guys who use pick-up lines like that have a better chance of going extinct than we do. :)

Uh yeah, that's a real WTF moment right there.

Did he really think that he was cool by saying that? Ridic! haha!

Extinct? Really??? I can only imagine all of the random comments you've gotten about being a redhead, but that is just stupid. Some guys deserve to never get laid again -- he's one of them!
