take a number

Used to tell someone to wait their turn for something, such as to speak with a person or to ask a person for something. Taken from the system of hospitals and pharmacies of taking a piece of paper with a number on it from a big red roll and waiting for your number to come up on the screen. When your number came up, you were served.

My friend thinks you’re cute, can they get your number?

A cruel “prank” typically involving walking up to someone deemed ugly, unsuspecting, vulnerable, or otherwise an easy target to be dishonestly told that one of the instigator’s friends thinks they’re cute, and asking for their number.

This goes past pranking and leans more into bullying, even if the instigator doesn’t think it does, because it causes emotional harm to the victim who had their number asked for. Sometimes it is recorded without the victim’s consent and/or posted to the internet.

There are infinite better ways to have a fun time and laugh than pulling it on someone. Not recommended.
Person A: My friend thinks you’re cute, can they get your number?
Person B: Fuck off.
