I always hit awkward spots in my conversations where I ahve no idea what to say next to keep it going, like when there's an awkward silence and someone needs to break it, does that ever happen to you? I suggest we put together a list of Conversation Un-Stickers: 1.) "So, have you seen any good movies lately?" 2.) (seasonal) "How's Spring Break been for you so far?" ...and I'm at a loss. Will someone please help me out here, I'm so pathetic...

3.) "So did you see the (Name of show) last night?" 4.) "Have you read any good books lately?" 5.) "What do you like on your hot dogs?" 6.) "What's your favorite band?"

"You. Me. Let's go. Right now." Haha, that's one that is always sure to stir either a laugh or an awkward look. My friends and I say it all the time.
Just start quoting random lyrics. That way, if you have similar music tastes, a conversation is born <3
And uh... I don't know, the situation kind of dictates it. Usually you can just pull off one of those "I got basically no sleep last night" comments, or a "my legs are still killing from soccer practice. It's actually very painful." You know...pretty much anything.

'Do you have any animals?'
'When's your birthday?'
I know mine are dumb. But hey, I've learned alot of things from people just by starting with those.

sports *cough, cough, soccer, cough, cough* are one of my fave things to talk about. but i hate talking to adults. what do you talk to them about? ur new haircut? ur grades? both for me pretty much never change? ugh. i usually have this terrible desire to go "awkward silence." the fews times i've said, people either laughed or just stared at me. awkward moment, my friends.

Yeah, I have a tendency to just ask random questions, which ahs actually made me some awesome friends, but most people would rather believe I'm odd than reply and inadvertently admit that they are, too.

one night at a show there was this guy sitting with his friends, and someone called him Adam. and later I saw him walking around the venue, and I had no one to talk to at the moment, so I called out his name and told him I was going to follow him. He was kind of awkward but it was cool. then I met his friends, and we didn't even know each other Now we're pretty much best friends, because he got me email and we talk a lot and see each other when we can. I love it
