 Posted: 05/19/03 - 11:50 Post subject: Madison Discussion Ideas
Awhile back ago, I helped some various Californians with some back-up small-talk ideas in their first get together.
Wondering if y'all could help us out for this weekend's get together in Madtown...
I'm looking for discussion ideas to fill in those glaringly odd moments of silence...
Example:
joel: Hi Genie! It's finally good to meet you!
Genie: Yeah! I hear ya!
:crickets chirping:
joel: soo...do you like stuff or what?
Now think!

Your idea is fatally flawed because you used Genie and awkward silence in the same sentence.

Gee, and I had someone just last week tell me they were glad they wouldn't have to fill in any of those moments because since you and I are going to be in attendance there won't be any!!!

Conversation starters -
So, have you had any good cheese lately?
Joel, I love your foam cheesehead, please share with us your other uses for it.
Hey everybody, who wants to talk trash about the RR'ers that aren't here today?

Shelf, I can text message you things like:
"What's Randy doing now?"
"What's CB eating? Ask her if you can have a bite?"
"Throw something at Shelee"
It can be like our own version of Letterman and Rupert.
