It's true, "small talk" is a reality of human conversation.

I'm not very good in social situations so maybe it's just me, but I wish smalltalk was usually of the kind of talking about the weather or other external state instead of asking pointless personal questions. Also, sometimes those personal questions asked as smalltalk touch some topic which is actually sensitive, and it always feels weird to me to answer back with some platitude.
