30 Screenshots of Punny Pick-Up Lines That Prove Humor Is Hot

Online dating is slowly becoming the norm for meeting new romantic partners. Whether you're looking for a long-term lover or something more casual, dating apps can connect you with a variety of people looking for all sorts of love. However, it can be hard to suss out the weirdos from the people who are worth talking to. In real life interactions, there's body language, tone of voice, pheromones, and general "vibes" that people project that can help you figure out — consciously or intuitively— if there's any chance of chemistry.
There's a lot of strategies for getting a foot in the door of a dating app convo. The opening line is probably the most important part. Some first messages are far too forward (ex: Hey, wanna f***?), and some are far too personal coming from someone you've never met (ex: Hello, my beautiful queen, you are the most amazing Goddess I have ever laid my eyes on, I can't wait to raise 6 children with you in a cottage, blah, blah, blah). But a strategy that rarely misses is humor. Puns, especially name puns, are often a good sign. Name puns using the recipient's name imply that the sender put some thought and effort into the message. Puns also have a comfortable, playful, and dad-like quality that can typically only signal a big, green flag. So, readers, would you give these punny romantics a chance?
