Small talk used to be an art, so let’s keep it that way! Here are a few ways you can leverage pop culture so that you’ll seem witty (maybe…probably not) and “in the know.”
Step 1: Don’t talk about Pilates. It’s gauche. [The Cut]
Step 2: Talk about that new Olivia Wilde movie. She’s classy and was once a real countess. [Refinery29]
Step 3: Make a joke about Legolas’ final battle actually being with a dwarf. [Gawker]
Step 4: Reference Dante’s Il Canto when talking about your yuppie and repetitive life. [Time]
God speed!
