Good Conversation Starters/Pickup Lines?
Pickup lines don't work, they never have and they never will unless you meet her standardized looks requirements. Just be tall, dark and handsome. Having money and status is bonus to those looks.
2 seconds of looking at someone new can wipe away 2 months, 2 years and sometimes 2 decades worth of blood, sweat, tears, struggle, care and support etc from someone familiar. You may not like hearing this and you'd wish this wasn't the case but that happens way too often.
Sure looks are "subjective" so say what you need to at your own peril. If you meet her standardized looks requirement, you're gonna be hot no matter what you say. If you don't, then you're "creepy" and if you stay too long, it's time for the cops to put you behind bars because she said so. This phenomenon is called the Halo Effect. Good luck though.
@iknowwhoyouare: SO true.
A great way to conversation tip is to be genuinly interested in what the other person says. Listen and follow up what she/he sais. And very important, don't be overly polite or overthink the conversation. If the other person is interested in following up with the conversation, things will go perfectly.

I recommend the examples with Craig Ferguson, those will give you a lot of fun ideas to pop into a conversation. Like the one on the link below:

@buckwheat: Actually LISTEN to her? Pfft. Ridiculous.
1: Lower your Filter (Don't over-filter what you say)
2: Dont be literal - be playful with the conversation and give answers that are more just fun for you to say, rather than necessarily answering the questions directly. If the asker really wants to know, they'll ask again, but often its more fun to give a non-answer that directs the conversation in a fun/ridiculous direction. Be literal when you need to be/ the asker is seriously insisting, but otherwise just play around.
2.5: Be playful and relaxed - enjoy yourself and laugh
3: Make your jokes kind/flattering/complimentary
4: Purposely misinterpet what the other person is saying and roll with it for a while. Play the fool.
5: Don't rush your jokes.
6: Rolodex method / make jokes that relate to what was previously discussed.
7: Playfully Self-deprecate. Make a joke of the compliment (playfully disarm compliments directed at you without making people think you hate yourself)
8: Be Enthusiastic with your compliments. Try to be excited for the conversation even if you're tired/don't like the person. Putting a bit of enthusiasm in has a higher probability of making the conversation more fun for both of you, even if you arent the best of friends.
9: dont be too stressed about making "different" jokes each time, just enjoy the conversation by playing with language and what was previously said.
