    Pick-up Lines & Dating

    Hey guys, here are all the pick-up lines we mentioned in the episode: Hey my name is Microsoft, can I crash at your place tonight? Do you like raisins? How do you feel about a date? Are you French? Because Eiffel for you. (Eiffel = I fell, meaning to fall in love) If I could rearrange the alphabet I’d put ‘U’ and ‘I’ together. Aside from being sexy, what do you do for a living? Are you from Tennessee? Because you’re the only 10 I see. If you were a Transformer, you’d be Optimus Fine. I must be in a museum because you truly are a work of art. Do you believe in love at first sight? Or should I walk by again? Did you just come out of the oven, because you’re hot! Is your name Google? Because you have everything I’ve been searching for. It’s a good thing I have my library card because I’m totally checking you out. My love for you is like diarrhoea, I just can’t hold it in. Someone better call God, because he’s missing an angel. We’re not socks, but I think we’d make a great pair. Do you have a bandaid? Cos I just scraped my knee falling for you. I seem to have lost my number, can I have yours? Are you a parking ticket? Because you have 'fine' written all over you. to chat up (someone) = to flirt, to talk with someone in a flirtatious way

    Studying abroad - with Chase

    Our special guest, Chase, talks about studying Japanese in Hiroshima, Hiroshima dialect, what he learnt, some advice for others and about tendonitis. Conversation points: `weeb` - a person who is really interested in Japanese culture and anime. `improvisation` - doing a solo performance and making unique music without any preparation. "What you put in is what you get out." `blown away` - to be surprised, to be impressed. `happy-go-lucky` - to be a happy person. `Don`t let it get to you` - don`t worry about something
