Me: Hey, do you think guys who wear a tie on a night out are trying too hard to get attention?

HB: Yes/No/Whatever

Me: (Pull out some pretty loud and ridiculous sunglasses and put them on) How about these? (Then strike a cheesey pose)

HB: Guarenteed to get a laugh imo. Her reply is irrelevant.

Me: I need to get back to my friends. We'll continue this later if you can come back with something equally snazzy. You don't need to fill me in on what means you have to go to get them!

- Walk off keeping item/sunglasses on

Got the opinion opener, some DHV - you're not afraid to get some serious attention / looks, and you've left her with a challenge she can't resist if she wants to talk to you again. Plus it doesn't matter what she say's atall so could work somewhere loud.

How do you think this would play out?

seems a bit too...prepared...to just have a peacocking item in your pocket.

what i did is go up to an HB wearing something ridiculous (e.g. a black silk bathrobe) and say "are these sandals a bit much?" (i.e. something totally conservative)
