Do not mix things up by referring to yourself as a Pick-Me-Up Artist as that may cause others to manhandle you ungraciously.

a lot of people don't realize this but a neat trick to pick up coins or other flat objects if you don't have long nails is to push them to the side of whatever surface they're sitting on and then you can pick it up from the bottom.

This "sabbatical's pick up" is no true art.

most pick-up artists work with a wingman. in fact the Amazonian Bird People, as they are more correctly called, have a very strong union so you are technically required to hire one even for relatively small pick-up jobs

tandem pick-ups are a great way for two artists to build trust. walk around the city with your partner, carrying a large plane of glass at both ends. watch out for skateboarding teens escaping bad guys!! they'll easily shatter your glass, as well as the emotional bond you two have been building for so long

Always pick up with your knees, and if you are picking up a particularly heavy load, consider a back brace! This has been a public service announcement from the National Council of Picking Up Things.

When you really get into picking up, you definitely want to be noticed, this is why I "peacock" using "flair" such as a hi-viz reflective vest and yellow hard-hat. Advanced pick up artists might want to consider joining a stevedores union

it can be difficult to lift things with your knees, since they lack opposable thumbs, so try wrapping them with double-sided tape when you're first starting out

Packson Jollock was well known for his style of "sip" painting, hoisting endless amounts of paint from canvas with his signature bendy straw (note: he never drank out of a straw)

did it hurt when you fell from heaven, because i'm trying to work out the counter-force necessary to pick up someone who is falling from heaven and lift them back, and statistical incident case data would be really helpful

are your pants made out of mirrors? because if so they must be somewhat heavier and more fragile than regular pants and as an enthusiast on picking things up I'm wondering how you pull them up and keep them in place

picking up big fat hens can cause serious injury if you don't follow the necessary precautions. double-check that your work boots are fastened, secure all exits, and make sure you have five or six pick-up sticks carefully arranged in a straight line before you begin

I find backflipping as I pick up stuff from the floor makes for the most impressive techniques, or just a pure heavy muscle deadlift with proper screams in the gym, but other things that work too:

"Hey, wanna BYOB and chill?"

"Hey, check out my giant rapsheet"
