Pick-up lines are the most ridiculous notion for proper dating etiquette; when you're sober. However, get a few beers in you, and the pick-up line doesn't really become a pick-up line so much as it becomes a silly icebreaker and can actually start conversation. Most of the time they won't work (because they're not really supposed to) but, provided the sense of humor is present, you can get away with them as long as they're not too crude.
I'm not a good example of them though because the only one I've used that worked was when I was still in high school and I was in my art class with some friends during lunch. I asked a girl at another table for a brush...
> "Hey. Can you give me your brush please?"
< "There's a few over by the soda machine in the sink."
> "Yeah, but I wanna use one that's still warm with actual talent."
Both of her friends laughed in ridicule but she caught on that it was supposed to be a joke anyway and we ended up going out on a few dates.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
