i like to use this. after a decent conversation, you know...fluff kino negs etc etc etc:
me: so anyways, let me get your opinion on something else, since youre so full of knowledge.
her: okay, go.
me: okay, so i have this (woman related to you, but distantly [aunt, etc.]). and she decides to go and get her boyfriends name tatted on her arm here. but the thing is, his name is (ugly name, like 'butch'). hah. so what do you think of that? would you ever get your bf's name tatted?
her: oh no. haha.
me: thats good, shows you got a good head on you shoulders. whats your boyfriends name anyways?
her: one of two things...
1 - i dont have one. (keep going, youre in the clear.)
2 - its "boys name". (here, either pull a bfd, or talk for a sec more and mid sentence fake a phone call and eject.)
that's a great routine. i'm going to have to use that sometime.
i love how it casually brings the subject up in a completely unrelated way, and then jumps straight to asking her so naturally. so much better than presupposing and randomly referring to "her boyfriend" in the conversation to see how she reacts (i think that one's a bit trite by now anyways and she might be wise to it).
