condensation

I'm surprised how many people have this as their go-to topic of conversation.

I agree with every single thing mentioned so far! I don’t understand people’s fascination with any of those things. Except for sandals. I like sandals.

Well, I can sort of understand sport - if you have a geeky interest, I can understand people liking to discuss tactics, scorings and so on, not that I have the slightest bit of interest. But I really don’t understand why many fans take it *so incredibly seriously* - sport is meant to be a bit of fun right? Or not?
In football I find it quite funny seeing managers getting all angry on the side, as well as when captains have post-match interviews in their monotone voice trying to make it all sound all so important.

Thinking I might give this a try next time I'm stuck for small talk.

'So, what do you make of this water vapour becoming liquid business, then?'

Condensation conversations at the bus stop?

It works for me! It would also give me an excuse to use one of Appear's poll itch answers in a conversation:

"How about me and you Merritt leave this bus stop and partake in a bit of drippy slip slap?"

Anyway

I'm not usually interested in sports of any kind. I'm also not a fan of drinking (unless it's loaded with sugar) And self love! (mainly as the lever seems to be busted and it's not paying out anymore)

It's the only time you'll hear a man using the word ''delighted.'' They always say ''I was delighted.''

Formula 1. I'm keen on many sports, but F1 is possibly the most tediocre invention in the entire history of womankind.

Formula 1/NASCAR, If I stumbled upon that on TV, I'd probably watch if there was not anything interesting to watch on any other channel.
In my opinion, the most boring sport has to be Golf.

^ Jen! What's not to love about this rain-soaked, overcrowded shit hole!?

Seriously though, can you not make use of your SoCal roots, or is emigration to the US not an option?
