I want this thread to have two purposes:
(1) Describing flirtatious interactions with elements of the general public and how/why they may have stimulated an otherwise dull, boring day.
(2) Giving people ideas on things to do in public to facilitate relations with strangers, from the innocent smile to what might end in a marriage, two kids and a mortgage. What is well-received, what is too cheesy, original ideas, etc.
Rubbing genitalia in a seedy nightclub technically counts, sure, but I'm more interested in the stuff that happens in the morning hours, the central business districts, the line at the coffeeshop, etc.

I go to the same coffeeshop almost everyday (that I work) to buy a black eye (two shots of espresso into a coffee [I have a problem, don't judge me]). I often exchange smiles with one of the female cashiers, and she often gets on my case about never going online to activate my store card. Anyway, I always end up paying for two espresso shots plus the price of a coffee, which can get expensive when you're trying to save up to take a barista out to a high-end Italian restaurant (or something). A few days ago, I went into the place at night seeking only two shots of espresso, and as I ordered it "to go," I was given it in a small coffee cup. Interesting.
So the next morning, I went in and Attractive Cashier was working. Before I could even open my mouth, she said "black eye?" and I said "two shots only." Now this place is set up so that customers pour their own drip coffee, so as soon as she handed me the two in the small cup, I smiled at her and locked eyes, and I did everything I could to hold the eye contact as I walked over to the drip coffee station and filled the cup to the brim with the dark roast. I could tell that the whole thing was making her antsy (she did that thing girls do where she started doing standing calf raises and squeezing her hands together to calm her nerves), and it didn't help that the manager was standing right next to her the entire time. Anyway, after done making the coffee I smiled at her and told her to have a good day. She did have an unusually-large grin going on, as well as a twinkle in her eye. I think I pulled it off pretty well.
