was he figuring the odds were better than the "you. lap. here" guy?

On the topic of guys who actually say stuff like that, a friend who works in a court building with several criminal courts was telling me a story about riding in the elevator with a guy who was probably a defendant (got off on the criminal courts floor, had a loud, bad suit on, kind of a sleazy looking guy, etc.).
She (a reasonably attractive woman who has clerked in the building for years, and is reasonably comfortable interacting with random criminal defendants) and another young woman were on the elevator when this guy got on. My friend said that the guy looked them up and down, and then said, "We could have fun, the three of us." My friend just rolled her eyes, but the other woman, after the guy got off, asked my friend what he meant, because she was so naive that she just didn't get it.
My friend saw this guy again later in the day, and asked him if lines like that ever worked. He said that the success rate was low, but that it was worth it to him to get rejected dozens of times a day for the times that it worked.
I guess if you don't mind rejection and don't have any moral reservations about propositioning women in a way that many would consider offensive, it might be the way to go.[1] At least it's less disrespectful than "You. Here."
[1] After all, this is basically the life of a salesman, except replace women with people.
