That is the single most innocent line I have ever hear :p Which is interesting, considering it mentions Grindr

It was because I figured out what his job, a therapist in radio-oncology, was. Then we talked about everything. In other words, I wasn't an idiot or a big pervert that just wanted to get into his pants. I mean who'd think that treating someone like a person would actually work? (Sarcasm directed at the many infuriating things guys would say and do on Grindr).
This is sounding like you take a pick of your junk and walk around asking people if they have seen your friend, then show them the picture.
There is no "pick up line". You look at a woman, identify her better points, then compliment those. Make her feel unique, and mention in some words that you had to take a chance because it was her.
Man, if I was actually good-looking, this would all be so much easier.

To be honest, I'm not a fan of Grindr. I mean, I've never actually used it (and before any says, that's not a suspiciously specific denial), and I'm really fortunate that Mr. Carny met me before I entered any sort of dating scene.
Like TSoL, I really prefer getting to know people first and enjoying their company, before even entertaining the idea of being with them. Part of that is probably my demi tendencies, and the fact that I never consciously went out looking for people to be with (until Mr. Carny bumped into me, of course).
And I'm uncomfortable with the idea of hook-ups and one-night stands. I'm not about policing people's bodies, and I have no objection to it, I just don't find the idea appealing. And some of the stories I hear from people who's used Grindr or Tinder make me laugh, if they weren't also kinda sad either.
Fun story: one of my friends uses Grindr and arranged a hook-up at the guy's house. The first words the guy said was that they'd have to be quiet because his mother's asleep. I'm honestly surprised that didn't make him go soft, but they ended up going into the shed and doing it there. I mean, got to give them bonus points for dedication and improvisation, but I was relieved that neither of them got nailed by a power tool.
I feel like doing it in a shed because your mother is asleep is just whole new level.
Well after I get to know the person and I decide I like them romantically, I usually go in with
"I like you, would you like to date?"
So far it has 100% accuracy
