WHAT YOU SAY

[This page is closed to new input. --Ed.]
AC Dropout,

Do you really say such things to people at lunch? :)) At least those questions are funny in a Seinfeld kind of way. There's nothing worse than boring, inane chit-chat from people who think they're fulfilling some kind of social obligation. I used to feel obligated to smile, nod and keep up with stupid conversations. Now if i think a person is boring, i'm cold and heartless. The only people who should be allowed to bore others to death and say stupid things is lonely old people, because i'm Chinese and i think we should be respectful to old people, even though they smell funny. Btw, I suspect soda from fountains has been peed in by angry, underpaid, teen employees, that's why it tastes different from soda in cans. And while we're having this deep and meaningful, is it true that KFC uses genetically engineered chickens that have no feathers, legs or beaks? Someone told me that these chickens are just like 'meatbags', and that the breeding factory looks like a scene from 'Matrix'. Sorry, just thought i'd ask you because you seem to be the guy with all the answers.

I believe in love at first sight.

What do you think of that?

I'm glad you share my sentiments! Thanks for your kind words. :)

I completely agree with you. A relationship based in physicality pales in comparison to a relationship based in the ecstacy of finding someone who perfectly matches an innate level of emotional and intellectual liveliness.
I used to think that being physical with someone was indicative of female defilement. Now, I find it to be an interesting supplement to a loving relationship (as long as this physicality isn't the emotional crutch bonding two people together). What do you think?

I've read Khalil Gibran (have my very own copy of "The Prophet"). Which works by Joseph Campbell and Rumi would you recommend?

Based on your reasoning, love is open to interpretation and fueled by the sheer novelty of personal experiences. Yet, you've also made claims that people remain "in love" because of force of habit. These two ideas, concerning the comfort level from being in love, and the emotional excitement running high on love, totally conflict with one another. Is love the pursuit of security or, ironically, the quest for the thrill? Love cannot be separated into these two shades of black and white. Love encompasses the entire spectrum of emotions - the very essence of love is captured by the endurance of the relationship tempered and tested through time, and built on trust and understanding.

Or is the question proposed merely a reflection of what is in your own heart's longing...lacking?

Must you parry my questions with questions? =).

I wasn't trying to teach you how to cook, I was trying to show you how to cut veggies in even pieces. Cooking is a different story. It requires fire and imagination (kinda sounds like a passionate love affair, huh?).

Anyways, thanks for the invite. I think it would be too costly since I don't live anywhere close to where you live. And besides, I always bring my dessert with me when I get invited to a friend's house for dinner. I bake a mean fruit tart!

I wasn't going to post any pictures of myself. I don't want to get stalked, or jumped, or kidnapped, or mobbed. Don't know really, who Vic Chao is. I just saw a picture of him on Goldsea and thought he was kinda cute. That's all. But he didn't post his pic, the Editors did.

chicky poo,
I think the small talk also depends on the type of people and the situation you are in. Business verus Personal.

AC Dropout,
Funny questions. Do you actually ask people that? And if you do, do you ask it at any other place besides at a fish and chip place. For the ketchup question, you can follow up saying with some random fact like Heinz decided to replace glass bottles with plastic squeeze bottles because some restaurants fill ketchup glass bottles with non Heinz ketchup. Can you taste the difference between Heinz ketchup and non Heinz ketchup? (this could lead to pepsi and coke question) Also, what do you think of the green ketchup? (can lead to a discussion on food coloring)

I like weather questions for coworkers, like damn it's hot today. We are finally in the summer after a crazy spring with hot and cold weather. I think it’s global warming..
And if you are bunch of guys (I know chickpoo is a girl), I would say something like I saw this really really.. REALLY pretty girl on the subway. My immediate reaction was say wow. (Good guy talk, I don’t know what girls talk when it’s just girls).
And here is an interesting conversation if you are the only girl in group of guys (says.. what do guys talk about when the girls are not around?).

MLK,

Don't post your pic. This forum is not a place for it. If everyone started posting their pics, then all of us might want to jump to AOL instead!

BTW, who is Vic Chao? Is he an actor? Never heard of him.

MLK,
Thanks for the suggestion. Since you are so nice to teach me how to cook, how about sampling some of my cooking using your technique at a candle light dinner :) Afterward, dessert at fancy restaurant.

chicky poo,

Small talk is suppose to be light conversation. Usually heavy subject matters; science, politics, deep philosophical thoughts should be avoided.

The delivery of small talk has to be positive, confident, and light (slightly humorous) on the part of the initiator.

Think of small talk like a Seinfeld episode. It's about nothing, really.

Because it is lunch time now. Some small talk topic I would have with people at lunch would be like.

"Do you think ketchup taste better from glass or plastic bottles?"

"Do you think soda from a fountain has a strange after taste as compared to soda in a can?"

If people take you seriously when you talk about the topics above there must be something wrong with the audience.
