Gov't shutdown pickup lines... lets have them

A couple months ago there was an "InfoWars pickup lines" thread that was fucking hilarious. So lets make some levity of the gov't shutdown.

I've asked you to dance 42 times and you're still saying no. WHY DO YOU REFUSE TO NEGOTIATE???

Is that a clean spending bill in your pants or are you just happy to see me?

Is it hot in here, or did the House vote to defund the a/c?

Unlike the national mall, I'm open to anything.

"C'mon darlin, we're both on furlough. We can sleep in late; I'll make you breakfast."

Just as an aside..."baby" is less effective than "darlin" if you have the twang to pull off "darlin"
