It can be hard to strike up a conversation for lots of people. Imagine two introverts on a blind date. They probably sit in silence. Or perhaps there is that socially awkward friend of yours who feels Embarrassed at parties so they never want to go. Let’s help these poor people by posting some conversation starters that cover as many random topics as we can think of. People can read this thread and they will be good for any situation ever.

    So, did you know that potatoes dissolve quickly in the stomach so if a forensic specialist finds a mostly whole one in your stomach after you are murdered they’ll know you were murdered right after dinner.

    I begin a lot of conversations by telling people how they remind me of my mother

    I've honestly never really thought about Albert Einstein as a real person

    I like to start by explaining that the reason why I’m overweight is because so many chairs, benches and seats out in the world just don’t have enough cushioning.

    Why? Seems like a weird thing at best, a creepy thing at worst. Also I’d feel bad as a mom if my kid was telling multiple people they remind him of me.

    Hmm. I’m really bad at small talk. I don’t like to talk to people (in person) that I do not know. But when I do, worldly events, and television shows are semi interesting conversations that can break ice.

    One day many years ago I was taking the bus home from school, when after about 15 mins I must of fallen asleep. I woke up suddenly thinking I had missed my stop, when the woman next to me said "don't worry this isn't your stop, you get off at the next one". I've never seen her in my life yet she knew exactly what bus stop I needed to get off at.
