Always be reading a book, that way you always have something to say.
Instead of starting a conversation with "how are you" "good, what about you", "good", "good", you can just come right out of the gate with "According to Plutarch, there were *two* Ariadnes".
This is the way

You definitely lost me there, well done
Me to the cashier: "Did you know the IMF and World Bank are exploiting the global south with predatory lending that strips them of their natural resources and devalues their labor for the benefit of rich western nations?"
Cashier: "Sir, this is a Wendy's."
Though the more I read, the less interested I am in beginning such conversations with others…🤷♂️🐿
“The man who would be tranquil in his mind must not engage in many affairs, either private or public.”

"Uh, yeah, so...you DO or you DON'T want fries with that...?"
Where I come from that's the type of thing that gets you punched in the face by a complete stranger. 🤣
Me too unfortunately
