how to be more social: learn how to pretend to enjoy pointless small talk and conversations around topics you couldn't give less of a flying fuck about

Did you see that ludicrous display last night?
What's Wenger thinking sending Walcott on that early?
The thing about Arsenal is they always try to walk it in...
i did! and i'm excited to talk about it, hopefully for the next hour or two!
How about that local generic sports team? They sure did good and/or bad.
i SOOOO fucking care about that shit!!!!
Are you enduring a slight difficulty but have compassionately reframed and developed a healthy plan to address it?
Need to rewatch this so bad 😭
I just say fair enough over and over until they stop talking, people want to feel like they're in the right and being heard, feed that need and they will end the weird conversation.
And you have to throw in “I told you that bitch crazy!”
You can always try to find friends who like same stuff as you, and spend some time together.
As an example: I am an introvert, but I recently started to go to Polish-Russian Language Exchange club and I am planning to go to English speaking club as well. But I guess learning languages as a hobby is a bit of cheating 😀
