Its just an opener, a conversation starter and to be honest, its more for his benefit than hers. Not saying your opener is crap in anyway, just an arbitary way of starting a conversation.
My favourite "got a spare fag for 20p?". Try that Phil, won't work with you, because you're not me. I pull that shit off because I'm me. Another favourite of mine "who the fuck are you?". They all open, its all good.

i think u missed the point.
it wasnt really the opener, but what it stands for.
one is saying something to start a conversation about somethin random knowing (and hiding) the end goal is to get laid.
the other is starting a conversation where you both know you get laid.
To give you an idea. I sell advertising. Most of our sales reps spend about 8-15 mins with a sales pitch about the product. and don't mention its an advertising call for about 4 mins.
I probably mention its advertising within about 20 seconds. sales pitch inc close is usually about 4-5 mins
that means my call rate is about 3 times anyone else....
i also sell about 4-5 times anyone else (with the exception of 2 whom i double, and our manager who is usually on parr)
the reason?? well i get rid of the shit early on. and people appreciate not being dicked about with a wave of bullshit.
i get more FUCK OFFS than anyone
i also sell more... ALOT MORE.
ur opener will start convos, and will probly work. maybe even as well as mine. but mine will get more fuck offs & more pussy
