In the 2005 hit “My Humps,” noted anatomists the Black Eyed Peas coo earnestly about the hypnotizing effects of a lady’s trunk. “I’ma … get you love-drunk off my hump,” preaches Fergie. 

Eight years later, the drunkenness hasn’t worn off. Now dudes are using Instagram to express their love of lady lumps. Introducing the Thirstiest Men of Instagram, a Tumblr-based archival project documenting extra-special pickup lines posted on women’s pictures.

The little love letters basically split into a few different categories.

Prostitution requests:

Unabashed forwardness:

Funny “jokes”:

“HEY HEY HEY GIRL”:

Phone numbers:

How are these dudes not getting laid?
