Sexy Time: Tech-Sexy

It’s officially the future, people, and while there may not be flying cars just yet, the advancements in technology are plentiful. Especially when it comes to gettin’ some. Yes, sex has gone tech, and I’m talking about more than those nakey photos you’ve been sending to the boyfriend while he’s away. (Which is a bad, bad idea. Has Vanessa Hudgens taught you nothing?!)

Below, a list of the sexiest things in tech:

For Your iPhone

Got an iPhone? No? Well, maybe it’s time to spend the cashola, because when it comes to sex, well, there’s an app for that. Here are a few of my favorites.

Cosmo’s Sex Position of the Day
This app is a to-go version of the Cosmo Kama Sutra. It offers a new sex position every day, as well as instructions and advice, illustration, and a difficulty rating (for those girls who are always up for a challenge). Read More »


Weekly Wrap Up: Helloooo, November!

pilgrambabyOh, sweet November—overnight, Starbucks has switched to holiday cups, Christmas-themed commercials are beginning to air, and I’m starting to get a serious hankering for turkey. I can’t wait to get a spiffy new pair of mittens—maybe designed by Lady Gaga?—and enjoy my last winter in college.

In the meantime, though, this week has given me a lot to think about. Here’s what’s been on your favorite CC writers’ minds over the past seven days:

- Even though getting old might mean that Halloween gets a little less fun, it doesn’t mean that you have to get any less awesome. Unless you join the National Parents Council.

- Hot men covered in cheese? Sounds surprisingly delicious.

- We hope our girl Rihanna isn’t opening up now for less-than-noble reasons. Either way, we’ll still listen to her music—even if there is more ridiculous stuff out there.

- There’s no better time than now to get over your lipstick-phobia, put on a pair of heels (or not), make the first move on the first hottie you see, and take him back to your place for a little one-on-one that’s sure to please. Just don’t be that girl. Please.


I Got Game. You Want Game?

flirtingI’m gonna make a bold statement right now:

I got some serious game.

I know that sounds incredibly cocky, but it’s actually quite the opposite. You see, until about two years ago I was the girl who sat on the sidelines and watched as all my friends flirted with and won over the very boys I wanted for myself. I was essentially the hook-up water boy, holding everyone’s cocktails when they went to the bathroom and checking to make sure no one had anything in their teeth.  I accepted my role and went on with my life thinking I wasn’t pretty or skinny or perfect enough to be seen as anything more than the girl best friend.

But then something happened. I had a one-night stand with a boy who everyone wanted and – like that – everything changed. I started walking with a little swagger in my step, approaching anyone and everyone I wanted and suddenly I had developed my game winning moves.

I’m not kidding, if there were a Hall-of-Fame for pick-up lines, I’d be its first inductee. Read More »

Douchebaggery: There’s an App for That

If you’re an addicted iPhone user like myself, you might like to keep up on all the hot goss on new apps. No? Just me? Super dorky? Fine. But even if you don’t own an iPhone, you should still check out this new app that Pepsi has launched for their energy drink, Amp.

This “Before You Score” app is geared towards guys who are interested in picking up chicks. And suck at it. The app breaks women down into 24 different types, including: the sorority girl, the rebound, the punk etc… “Before You Score” dispenses pickup lines, hot spots to take your type of girl (example: local Vegan restaurants for the tree hugger) and even a translator for Greek letters on the sorority girl. And if you somehow “score with Amp” there’s a quick way to brag about it through email, Facebook and Twitter.

Ta-da! Social media for the player, or, you know, douche bag. Nice work, Pepsi. Read More »


These Harry Potter Pick Up Lines are Magical

harry potter kissIf you’re planning on seeing Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince tonight, you’ll probably be standing in line for quite some time. Sucks, I know, but here’s a thought that might make waiting in line a bit more bearable: it’s a good time to pick up a guy!

You already know you have something (geekiness) in common and you’ll soon be sitting in a dark theater, so it seems to be the perfect place to meet your soul mate.

Since you only get one chance to charm that Muggle with your wit, we thought we’d help you out with a few HarPot&HaBloPri themed pickup lines. There is no way that boy will turn you down when you pull one of these out of your bag (unless, of course, he’s a Slytherin fan, in which case you wouldn’t want him anyway):

Show me your Nimbus 2000 and I’ll show you my Chamber of Secrets.

Hey baby, how about I be the Seeker so I can get your Snitch?

I want to put your wand in my leaky cauldron.

Did you escape from Azkaban, becasue my Dementor wants to give you a kiss.

How about you and me bang bludgers later?

The Sorting Hat has spoken and it says I belong in your bed.

Forget Wingardium Leviosa; I’ve got my own spell to raise that wand of yours.

Wanna make me moan like Myrtle?

What magic pick-up lines can you come up with?

Happy “Talk Like a Pirate Day”!

johnny-depp-pirates-of-the-caribbean.jpgToday is September 19th, and you know what that means:

It’s International Talk Like a Pirate Day!

Avast me hearties! We realize that most people don’t know how to talk like a pirate (that is the one college class they don’t offer…yet…), so we thought it was important to teach you some of the more basic terms to get you through the day; the words and phrases you would hear most. And since today also happens to be a Friday, we thought incorperating those pirate phrase basics into pickup lines for the bar would be ideal. Lord knows some drunk boys are gonna use these.

So, courtesy of TalkLikeAPirate.com (yes, that is a real site), we bring you:

10 Pick Up Lines for Guys on Talk Like a Pirate Day.
