New study also says aggressive, prehistoric pick-up tactics work for those seeking casual sex.

John Mayer Tries To Top His Own Worst Pickup Lines

The foot-in-mouth pop singer should probably just stick to lyrics when it comes to wooing women.

John Mayer may know how to make the ladies swoon in song, but he makes us cringe when he tries to be suave without singing. Recently, Mayer hit NYC hotspot Wicker Park with Ricky Van Veen of the website College Humor, and decided to try some college-level humor of his own. When a starstruck female fan approached Mayer, he engaged her in polite conversation which took a turn for the creepy mid-chat. According to the Post's source, "He said that she was going to make someone very happy one day, as long as she remembered to talk dirty while having sex."

And I’ll admit that on the exceedingly rare occasions when a woman has approached me at the bar, I don’t know how to react. But that’s not to say women should play the role of damsel in distress when they spot Prince Charming. You just need to be strategic in your approach.
