Funny Things to Say in the Dm

38 Instagram Pickup Lines That Work in 2022

Quick question...

Do you think Instagram pick up lines still work in 2022?

I mean, aren't pick up lines the most hated thing when it comes to dating?

Here, we believe that it's not about what you say, but rather how you say it.

• If your genuine intention is to brighten a girl's day

• If you don't use pickup lines seriously

• And if it's something original she didn't see 534,689 times before

It will have you come out as interesting and attractive.

That's like, a super-secret reverse-psychology effect.

And in this article, you will find 38 real and recent examples of those Instagram pickup lines that get girls to reply.

15 Instagram Pickup Lines Found on Twitter

So let's start this article with stuff that is true and tested.

Considering young (and attractive?) people are using it more and more, you gotta find the best Instagram pickup lines.

Here's a compilation of interesting Instagram pickup lines that made it to Twitter.

And if they made even the bluebird chirp, you can be sure that they are efficient.

1 - The Overly Polite

This DM is funny because it's overly over the top.

Especially when you consider that most girls usually receive text messages that just state "hey you're so pretty".

It's like a satire of what she receives every day.

As such, it gets attention.

2 - The Trickster

This one works because it's subverting her expectations.

The goal is of course not to deceive her, but to make her laugh.

If she likes your IG feed, chances are high she will take the hint and give you her number.

3 - The Cheesy Pickup Line

I can hardly call this article how to slide into DMs on Instagram without including some pickup lines, can't I?

Remember what makes a pick up linework:

• It's original

• Well-delivered

• You're able to follow up on it

4 - The One that Gets in her Head

Imagine you're receiving this message out of the blue at midnight.

• I'm sure you're gonna open it.

• I'm sure you will think about it.

• And I'm sure you're gonna reply.

Works with girls too.

5 - Everyone Loves Harry Potter

Everyone loves Harry Potter.

Do I need to say anything else?

6 - Misinterpreting her Name

Not gonna lie.

This one is so random.

It probably works even if her name doesn't mean Bucket in a foreign language.

7 - The Grave Disease

I'm pretty sure I've seen something like that when watching How I Met Your Mother back in the days…

This funny gimmick works, even with online dating.

8 - The Nerdy One

Met the cutest nerd you've ever seen?

I found just the pickup line for you.

9 - The Smooth Boy

My personal favorite of the day.

Smooth, inspired, direct, unapologetic.

And fun.

It's definitely a win.

10 - Dropping standards

This one works so well that even girls are using it.

It gets my seal of approval.

11 - The Bouncing Ball

I honestly don't know what makes this opener so popular, but I found at least 10 different variations of it on Twitter.

It will be a hit! Unless she has already received it countless times before.

12 - Bouncing Ball Returns

I've seen so many similar iterations of the previous line online.

They are all pretty much the same.

So I just found a new one for you.

And I even found some dude who had a funny follow-up even when the girl wasn't replying.

13 - Patrick is the Real Star

Name 2 things that girls like?

• Cute guys

• Spongebob Squarepants

Combine the 2, and you get high chances of a successful slide.

14 - So What's Up, I Have a Skin Color

Not sure why this one works, but it got her to laugh for sure.

Probably the overconfidence and simplicity.

15 - The Smooth Pun

Everyone loves puns.

They make for great pickup lines (when they are original).

What Makes a Girl Reply to Your DMs?

See my friend, all those lines are clever and fun.

And I'm sure you can come with your witty pun by yourself.

(Or keep reading, I have more in store for you below)

But the thing is if she's cute, she probably has tons of other dudes trying to slide.

And they are all also fun and also witty and also smooth.

But they still all get ignored.

And put in the "creepy dude on IG" box.

Why would she reply to you then?

There is one thing that will make the difference and prove to her you're not creepy.

What will make the difference is a good Instagram profile…

And if you have 79 followers and a feed that is rich in exactly 5 selfies of yourself and your dog, it's not gonna cut it.

But if you have an amazing profile, now you're playing.

Tip: It's not about being physically attractive. It's about having a feed that looks attractive. Something that shows your life is amazing.

There are 4 proper steps to get a girl on a date from Instagram.

1. Have a dope profile that shows you have an attractive life.

2. Get her to notice you by following her/liking her photos.

3. Post more interesting pictures and stories.

4. Once she has been warmed up by your hot IG profile, send her a DM.

Slidin' in is just one of those steps, the last one.

Have a look at this article about all the other steps.

5 Funny Conversation Starters

Those are low-key, original, and will push girls to give you more details to follow up with a conversation.

• "What would your mom and dad say if you started dating someone you met on Instagram? Just curious."

• "I'm taking a poll: Is asking someone out through DMs weird in your opinion? I'm thinking it's rather bold, but I want to know what you think."

• [Sent in two different messages] "I think your Instagram could look better." "My advice for you is to post more pictures of us together. Don't worry, I can help you with that."

• [Sent in two different messages] "Hola! I tagged you by mistake in my last pic. I meant to tag my friend, you share the same name." "Just kidding, I was looking for a good reason to break the ice with you. Did it work?"

6 Punny Messages

Because who doesn't like nice wordplay?

• "This is likely super bold but, you know what they say: carpe DM."

• "I've been thinking about you from AM to PM, so I figured I might as well send you a DM."

• "What do baseball and Instagram have in common? I'm terrible at sliding with both, but I'll still give it a try. "

• "Are you a loan? Because you have my interest."

• "My parents always said I should follow my dreams. That's why I started following you on Instagram."

My Favorite Tricks to Slide Smoothly

Here's a sneak peek into my personal IG.

I've been running those lately and found great success with them.

Share her Own Story to Engager Her

If you pay attention to what people talk about the most, it's most likely about themselves.

You can use this easy trick if you wonder how to slide into DMs on Instagram.

Here's an example with a girl I started following.

She posted a story of herself exercising.

Why does it work?

Because she most likely has to invest a lot of care and effort in working out.

Anyone who works out knows it's not easy.

And therefore, talking about something that she cares about, she has way more chances to reply.

Important Note: People just LOVE talking about themselves.

In its way, this first message is allowing her to talk (brag?) about this thing she invests a lot of time and energy in.

In itself, replying gives her validation.

She's not replying to a thirsty guy anymore, she is replying because it makes her feel good to talk about exercising.

Privately Comment on her Pics to Stand Out

Not everyone knows that trick.

But it's possible to share someone's DM directly with them.

In practice, it makes it as if you were commenting on one of their posts.

Except that it lands directly in their DMs.

And so girls will have more chances to see it, and they can directly reply privately.

To do so you want to click on the small paper plane below a girl's post in her IG feed.

That one.

And then you simply type a comment about this picture.

And select her name in the list of the people you want to share this with.

Effectively, you will comment on her picture.

Except that only she will see that comment, and it will end up in her DMs.

Make sure you stay away from the simp-zone that is her public comments.

6 More Instagram Pickup Lines

1 -The Common Point

If you spend some time on female-centred subreddits, you will find that many women say they prefer to meet guys online that they already know.

Common points are great to start a conversation.

The person you're talking to will instantly feel like they can trust you more.

2 - The Open Loop

This one is one of my friend's best secret weapons.

He calls it the open-loop since it's just that…

An open-loop to make girls talk.

It's clickbait-y, it's engaging because it's making the girl talk about herself.

It won't get you a date in itself, but it's good enough to slide at first.

3 - The Workout Match

4 - The Musician

So many girls are musicians or amateur DJs these days.

Use that to your advantage, make this flirty.

5 - The Eye Contact

It works because it lets her imagine all the butterflies she feels in her stomach when looking at a guy she likes.

This works better with a strong and attractive profile.

6 - The Straightforward One

I'm a big fan of those.

In fact, here's a little secret.

My 2 favorite openers are

• Straight-forward ones like this

• Or commenting on a girl's story

Because they keep it real.

They show that I'm here to get to know her and get things done.

Caveman style!

Again, this works better with a stronger profile.

But it has the advantage of saving you so much time.

3 Funny GIFs to Spark Interest

Who said your Instagram pickup lines had to be made out of words?

Here are 3 true and tested gifs that will smoothly start a conversation.

Those work well on Tinder but are also efficient Instagram pickup lines.

Pro Tip: Both apps are at the end very similar, you can use Tinder to funnel girls towards your Instagram profile.

1 - "Hello there / General Kenobi"

Let's start strong with a gif that does exactly what we want.

It says hi and it's fun at the same time.

And I mean, if she doesn't get the Star Wars reference, is she worth it?

2 - The Sunday Hangover Reminder

This funny gif of a girl dancing on a table is sure to remind her of the positive emotions she experienced a few nights or hours ago.

Send this on a Sunday afternoon for maximum efficiency.

3 - The COVID-19

You know what they say about a bad situation…

Try to make the best of it.

If you make your gif relevant to what's happening in the world and cute/funny, it's more impactful.

1 Bonus Detail that Will Make Your Openers Irresistible

One of my favorite things about Instagram is that it makes people so obsessed with themselves.

With themselves, and also with what they post.

What I am about to share with you right now is a bit of a dark side technique.

It's an amazing way to come up with great Instagram pickup lines.

We are going to get all psychological and put our marketers thinking cap on.

What is one thing that drives us, humans, insane?

The one thing that is the cause of every discovery ever.

It's a curiosity.

And if you're quick, you guessed it: we are going to clickbait our way into girls DM's.

See, in the DMs list, there is a little bit of a text message that shows.

This is a message that a friend sent me, but you see where I'm going.

What's Japanese, what happens next??

I just can see the first 4-5 words.

And that makes me want to click to know what's up.

Most guys will go in with a lame

• "hey cutie"

• "hey how r u"

And this is easy to spot (and avoid) in the IG inbox.

Girls won't even have to click on the message to see what's up.

But if you can make those first few words original, she won't know what to expect.

Chances are curiosity will get the better of her.

And once she clicks on your message, you're one step closer to having her reply.

To conclude

If you were wondering how to slide into DMs on Instagram, this article got you covered.

You now know what kind of Instagram pickup lines work to get a reply.

Like, really.

This is all that you need when crafting the first message.

No more "I don't know how to slide into DMs on Instagram".

Again, it boils down to this.

Get a great profile, say funny things.

And we saw how to make a very strong impression with your first message.

So that you get even more chances to have girls reply to you.

Craft your DM slides, or pick any one of the 38 above if you don't have the time to think.
