I don't mind it in small doses. Other times it can be painful to sit through.


I think the exact thing. Small talk 15 seconds to 30 seconds is fine, but 1 minute and higher is not fine.

I don't like at least some "small talk." I do like talking about the weather, though (meteorology is one of my special interests).

I like to be diplomatic if I'm introducing a sensitive subject; otherwise, I'm pretty much a "cut to the chase" kind of guy.


Meteorology and the weather is one of my obsessions too, but I get annoyed when people say what a bad summer, when statistically it is better in a number of regards.

However I must stop correcting people when they are wrong in this regard. It must be very annoying.
