What Foreigners Think About Small Talk in the US?
I interview foreigners in the US about their thoughts on the American small talk culture. Do they experience the small talk culture daily and how do they feel about it?

This video is so funny that even my perm straightened up from laughing. Thank you, YouTubeπ
I always knew I was born in the wrong country. American here, introverted and intellectual. I absolutely abhor small talk. Which is why dating is very difficult for me. Iβm on dating apps and I have to have a series of the same opening line over and over again, like Groundhog Day. And a few times I start with something more substantive something a little less surface level they unmatch. I really need to get out of the country.
I understand you, are you a man or girl?
I’m similar when it comes to small talk. One of the reasons Americans like small talk is because they don’t know how to feel comfortable sitting in silence with their own thoughts
I’m the same bro. I should move to Germany or Poland lol. Plus women treat u better over there than in the States imo
We Canadian also like small talk ππππ
Haha in America I’d be talking about my whole life story to every person I meet.
I’m sure there’d be downsides π π
What is it you humans call it…
Short talk?π€
Im american. I dont like small talk. I can tolerate it to a certain degree but i prefer getting to the point.
Happy Thursday, Marina! Sending you love from Miami, Florida β€
Not a fan of small talk either. If I have something to say, Iβll say it.
I’m an American, who is occasionally introverted and I don’t like it too much either lol
Americans make good conversationalists for this reason I must say
It depends on where in America. People in Seattle don’t chit chat or smile and say hi in general.
