I utterly hate it. I don't see it having any worth at all. Some people say that it's necessary for starting up a conversation, no, just no. Why make conversation on something you actually give no shits about. Here's the worst part, if you give a honest answer, people have no idea what to do. Don't greet people with "what's up", "how's it going" cause u don't care, don't ask, just nod or say hi move along.
"Open you mouth only if what you say is more beautiful than silence"
For people who argue that small talk is needed for making conversation, no, not really. Though this depends on people's definition of small talk. Making small talk is exchanging inconsequential information, making conversation is an exchange of interesting information.
Commenting on weather makes no sense, I'm right here, experiencing the exact same weather. Unless you want to discuss the impending northern air fronts that may or may not bring snow next weekend depending on the moisture levels generated by the recent warm air front from the east coast, don't comment/ask.
In that regard, if that certain person actually has legitimate interest in the topic, that's just maing conversation.
