    If you have an interesting life then you can commandeer small talk and make it interesting. It’s an opportunity to introduce other material.

        Ok, not what I meant at all. Especially the part about making things up (why insert this?). I just meant that there’s no rule that small talk has to stay as such. You’re making it seem like I meant one should be an unhinged narcissist bragging about their life while ignoring everyone around them.
