Know it's a line. Pick up lines work best when both of you know it's a bit. Saying it with a grin, or adding 'sorry, I had to,' turns cringe into charming.
Pick the right moment. A line is great to break the ice. It's a bad way to keep a conversation going. One line, then talk normally.
Make it fit. A nerdy line for someone who posts about space, a food line for someone whose profile is all brunch pics.
Follow up with a question. 'Anyway, how's your day going?' after the line gives them something real to answer.
Read the reply. A laugh and a question back is a green light. A one-word reply means slow down and try a normal message.
Before
“Are you a magician?”
After
“Are you a magician? Because I just checked your profile three times and still can't figure out how you're this funny. Seriously though, where's pic 2 from?”
Same classic setup, but it ends on something real about them and a question they can answer.
