Like for example, people who’ll ask how you are like 5 times in a conversation or make it about the weather. Things you know will last 2 minutes at best.

I’m asking for examples and answers. Not a stupid debate, here. Why are we complicating this?

        The previous commenters are correct though. Small talk is a jumping off point for other topics of conversation.

        Sorry mate, it’s all this weather we’ve been having. It’s pretty crazy out there, huh?

        But seriously, the irony of asking about boring conversations and then explicitly stating that someone is derailing a conversation is just so tasty.
