Are You Good At Small Talk?

[perriwinkle]

Small talks to the people I don't know much....

[maxiev]

I think I can hold my own. As long as the person and I are on the same page so to speak, I think I can carry on a decent conversation.

[emery]

I think I can handle a small talk provided na hindi creepy yung tao.

[wanfish]

Nope unless kung ung kausap ko ang magdadala ng conversation

[admark]

i don't consider myself a really smart guy, but so far, had been able to handle myself pretty well

Have you ever seen Born Yesterday (Don Johnson, Melanie Griffith, John Goodman). "A businessman shows up in Washington to lobby agendas that are friendly to his construction plans. His ditsy ex-showgirl bimbo proves to be an embarrassment in social situations, so he hires a reporter to teach her how to appear more intelligent." To prepare for Goodman's (businessman) big event, Johnson (journalist) equips Griffith (bimbo) with 8 essential phrases and what they mean. I love that party scene where Griffith had to mingle with business folk where her ever reliable guardian angel (Johnson) was hovering, and using his fingers, gave her signals on which phrase out of the 8 would be the best reply. It worked of course and she walked out to each chat feeling ever so confident. I guess it wouldn't hurt to have simple phrases tucked under your belt, the knowledge to use them and grace to walk away when it gets too complicated.

Hate it, am lousy with it. Difficult time making small talk. Unless it's a fellow geek.

[ekim77]

big talk small talk it depends on who your talking to as well eh.

[chessboxin]

Just make the other person have a "Yes yes" reaction when you say something in your small talk. When both of you guys agree on something from the very beginning it's easy na after. Mas open minded kayo.

[chipmaker]

in my line of work, it's a priceless asset to have

[Aey.Sean]

Depends, if I try then yes. If I'm not interested then no.

[blow_gobi]

Not really good at it, but surprisingly can carry a stimulating conversation for hours.

[simon888]

depends on who i am with and what my motives are.

[simpleman1225]

I'm good at it in a sensible way...

[maninmotion]

Talk about the weather or current events. Definitely no religion nor politics.

They say so... I do nothing special though, but looks like I am a natural empathic, haha.
