Co-worker 1: When I see a beautiful woman at a bar, of course I want to buy her a drink. But that's not how it really should work. So I tell her, "I want to want to buy you a drink, but I should actually be buying your mother a drink. And your daddy. Because they're the ones who made you so fine."
Co-worker 2 (might have been me): When you've used this approach, co-worker, and you've said, in essence, "Hey shorty, you're attractive, but imma disregard all that because I want to buy your mama and daddy a drank, despite their not being present at this time while you stand before me being beautiful," how well does it turn out for you?
Co-worker 1 pauses, reflects.: It doesn't go well.
Co-worker 2: I'll say this, though. It's better than offering to buy a drink for her plastic surgeon.
