I just feel like a lot of people here are defining "small talk" as "a conversation that I don't want to have" rather than any meaningful definition.
I would consider stepping outside in the morning with your partner and stating "oh wow it's such a nice day today" to be small talk. It's a conversation without an end goal, sure, but I don't think it's as worthless as people are making it out to be.
Idk I took it more to mean "wow I don't want to start a deep, thoughtful conversation the moment I get home from work let me relax for a minute" while at the same time still wanting to talk to your partner. But I guess it's up to reader interpretation and I do seem to be in the minority here.
How did everyone take this post to mean that you should only do small talk with your partner and not have deeper conversations?
This dude is gonna send me straight to the shadow realm
I think it was more of a question like "what are you angry about?" Or "what makes you angry?" Rather than "why are you so upset?" But idk I didn't make the posts
Doesn't this definition exclude the first dragon quest from being an RPG?
Doctor Solomonides. I'm absolutely terrible with names and it's stuck with me since I was a child.
And that reason would be?
