Is your neighborhood infested with status whoring but irresistibly cute SWPL girls<\/a>? Then you need an icebreaker tailor made for their fastidiously ironic sensibilities. Let’s say you and the SWPL girl of your infatuations are sifting through a selection of $10 jars of almond butter at Whole Foods. Unless you are a savvy shopper, most stuff at Whole Foods is ridiculously overpriced. Knowing this, you look across your shoulder at her and say:<\/p>\n

“If it isn’t overpriced, I don’t feel like I’m getting my money’s worth.”<\/p>\n

Wait for her to smile (she will, if she doesn’t take herself too seriously) and enjoy that moment when your pinkies touch reaching for the same jar of almond butter.<\/p>\n

Now you’re at the local dog park, a place where SWPLs can feel morally upstanding for giving their dogs the opportunity to run free on a scruffy patch of 10 feet by 20 feet crabgrass (artificial grass if you’re at the Dupont dog park.) A tasty number sits down near you with her pomeranian in tow.<\/p>\n

“The great thing about dogs is that you don’t have to worry about moving out of the city when they get old enough to go to school.”<\/p>\n

What if you see the SWPL of your dreams at the local bike shop, where she’s purchasing enough biking accoutrements to outfit a small, fitness-oriented Central American guerilla army?<\/p>\n

“I really recommend that aquapac. It’s good to be prepared in case you get stuck for weeks in the wilderness of Rock Creek Park.”<\/p>\n

Close your eyes. Open them! Now you see a cute SWPL babe at a Georgetown consignment shop. She’s trying on musty old hats.<\/p>\n

“That hat would be even cooler on you if it was a man’s hat. And it had an Olympics pin on it.”<\/p>\n

You’re at the famed E Street Cinema in downtown DC. You’re standing in line next to a SWPL babe to see a sub-subtitled foreign flic of mega-ironic proportions. (It’s originally spoken in Czech, dubbed over in German, subtitled in French and sub-subtitled in English.) You capture her attention while waiting in line to buy a ticket.<\/p>\n

“I hope this movie comes with 3D glasses.”<\/p>\n

You’re at an outdoor concert, standing in line to use the Porta-John. You get her attention and say…<\/p>\n

Well, actually, nothing. There’s nothing flirty you can say while waiting to use a Porta-John. It’s just too gross.<\/p>\n
