Great Conversation Topics
This week had some great news and some great entertainment, here are the highlights for you, so you have some interesting topics to talk about this weekend.
- John Travolta’s Dogs Run Over At Airport. Yes, the Travolta’s face another untimely death in the family, two in fact. The dogs were being walked at Bangor International Airport when struck by an airport service vehicle. Freak accident indeed.
- Conan O’Brien shares his fave 5 youtube videos. You’ve got to see these five hilarious videos. Stay up-to-date with the comedian’s faves and you’ll certainly have something interesting to talk about.
- The Porsche!!! As only a teen can experience and a father can cry about… or is it the other way around? This is what happens when a teen crashes a $180,000.00 2010 Porsche Turbo.
Friday’s Conversation Topics
This Friday wraps up some great news stories that will help you with entertaining conversations with those you meet this weekend, even if all you do is click around to ChatRoulette.com.
I have to start this week’s news with one that affects us all: free speech in games versus protecting kids from graphic violence and suggestive sexual, often violent, depictions. While I don’t agree that the government has to babysit what we choose to watch I do agree that the standard should be higher to protect youth from violence, even if it is in movies or video/computer games.
- Supreme court will rule on violence in video games accessible to minors. Yes, someone has to define what is acceptable.
- Sandra Bullock files for divorce. So sad for Jesse James. Does this mean he’ll go back to making porn? And who’s going to get the lion’s share of the money, along with custody rights to a baby that isn’t either of theirs?
- Man eats 1,500 lightbulbs. Starting at age 12, Wang Xianjun, 54, of Sichuan Province has been eating lightbulbs. Not whole, of course, but in pieces. Regular doctor checkups show no adverse affects. His secret is being carefully monitored by the “Revolutionary Sex For Women” people… the relation escapes me.
- Man fined €14,000 for ‘ass-bombing pool’ in Germany. Not quite you think an ass-bomb is the equivalent to a cannonball jump into a pool… but this still qualifies for an interesting conversation topic, don’t you think?
Have a great weekend!
This Week’s Best Conversational News Stories

Time is running on!
Stay current, be interesting. Get prepared now by reading our conversation topic suggestions below.
- Is a robot or human better at kicking field goals? If you’ve ever been stumped by this question you now have the opportunity to find out the answer. This is good for a few great minutes of conversation and can lead to whole new areas of continuing the conversation too.
- Beware when you’re texting personal messages at work! If the place you work for and they supply you with a phone, they may have every right to “ckeck in” on what personal business you’re dealing with while on company property or using your employers electronics. For me it’s a no-brainer, they own it, they can do what they want, even if it means they are invading your privacy. Will the supreme court agree?
- ‘Balloon Boy’ dad to pay $36,000.00 restitution. I have to ask, is 36K enough of a deterrent to stop the next media-crazed individual to staging a news-worthy event for a media starved public? Time will tell. And you can keep up with today’s most popular video on this page.
- Craigslist Lovers. Henry Russell’s book, Craigslist Casual Encounters: The Hilarious and Disturbing World of Seeking Sex Online, is out listing some of the most freakish encounters that have been attempted to occur through the free classified site. Go ahead and read the article, you need a laugh about now anyways. Order your copy of the book here at Amazon.com
Have a great weekend!
Friday’s Conversation Topics
This Friday evening and weekend I want you to be well prepared for the conversations you will find yourself a part of.
Remember:
A woman that can contribute and lead conversations is a strong and attractive women.
The man that can keep up with the conversation and add exciting facts at appropriate moments becomes very interesting and exciting to the women that surround him.
So, this is your homework, read these selected articles and prepare yourself for some fun conversation this weekend!
- 13 year old boy will attempt to climb Mount Everest. Hell, I’d like to get out of my car without needing to catch my breath. But good for the kid, this effort will complete his goal of climbing mountains on all seven continents. Too bad he still has a couple of years to get to the top of “Mount Breast”.
- How women control men and influence people using Facebook. It’s about time someone stood up and told the truth about how women use social networking tools to maintain and control relationships online and offline. Of course, we also have to ask “Do online friends influence drinking habits“?
- Steven Seagal sued. Does he really own two Russian sex slaves? Full article at TMZ.com
- How not to use Craigslist.org. Woman posts ad “Come and get free stuff in the front yard” and people take most of the free stuff and thieves take the other stuff still inside the house, including fridge, stove, etc.
Friday’s Conversation Topics
I’d like to say that I don’t have much exciting news to share with you this week, and then your burden of reading, remembering and conversing about a wide range of topics would be lessened… but you’re not going to get out of this endevour that easily.
You need to know what’s going on so you can be the interesting person that we all know you want to be. So let’s get started, shall we?
- Easter is cancelled. More of just a picture than anything else, but we all have to start somewhere, right?
- Woman dressed as Easter bunny attacked… seriously, who knew this would be the second news item? My sense of humor, and the attacker, is still being searched for.
- Is an Apple iPad in your future? Not if you’re Jon Byron. Or other such odd, non-Apple-consumer-driven-robots like the millions that swear by their iPhone or iTouch, or Nano, etc… but still have yet to buy a real Apple computer (since the 1980′s). Hell, I can think of more than 20 reasons why I don’t want one. But I know that I’ll have one by latest being the second version to be released, probably in the summer. For that matter, anyone want to buy my used iPad? (Note: how to read comic books with your iPad video)
- Unpaid air hostesses strip in protest. From Rueters ‘Oddly Enough’ category. This article is complete with pictures and video. Curious enough to look yet? Yes, it is about women not getting paid by their employer so they get even by taking off their clothes and posing for a calendar. This never happens where I work. Never ever. The stripping part, not the getting paid on time part. At least the stripping by the women under 25. The old bats will take their clothes off at the drop of a dime. LOL
- Turn your hot tub into a time machine. No, not the funny, lame-assed movie, this is about the real deal! Read and get ready to travel anoytime, anywhere. Everyone except you physics majors, anyways.
Have a great weekend!
Friday’s Conversation Topics
This past week, like many others we have experienced in this young year, has been full of interesting and conversational stories. Read and remember, you’ll need to be up-to-date to be a part of some great conversations this weekend.
- Facebook can give you syphilis. Yes, sadly this is a true, weird story. Or a lame-assed grab at some headlines on a slow news day. But think about this, the more people can connect the more they can pass along an STD. Of course, social networking sites also allow for some very bad music becoming popular too.
- Full body scanner operator warned about sexual harassment. When these machines were being distributed in January on a mass scale, I made a bet that it would take two weeks before someone was brought up on such “peek-a-boo” charges. Sure, it took longer than I thought, but I was still found right.
- Cash falls out of armored car… and guess what? Lots of motorists stop, pick up bundles of cash and leave. The scary part is they may be fearful of spending their ‘windfall’ after a possible threat of being charged with grand theft is made by local police.
- You have to wonder when teachers pull this kind of crap. Teachers, as a science lesson, fake a shooting and teacher’s death to teach the 10 - 13 year olds hanging out in the schoolyard and ten minutes later call them inside to tell them it was all a joke. UGH.
- Bush wipes hand on Clinton’s shirt. Yes, complete with video.
Have a great weekend.
Friday’s Conversation Topics
The weekend is upon us again and you’ll need to talk all the way through it… again…Luckily for you I am here and so are you, we will work together, you and I, to share some great news stories from the past week that you can read and talk with the people you find yourself with in the days and hours to come.
After all, if you have nothing interesting to say then you are boring! And we don’t want to be boring, right?
Ok then, now that all that is settled, here are this week’s most interesting topics for you as selected by me:
- 10 stupid things you shouldn’t do with a camera around. I think the article title says it all (with photos, sfw).
- Meet the computer that can meet your mind. It was only a matter of time, right?
- War hero get’s reprimanded for managing the battle that he received a Silver Star of bravery for. This is when bad things get a lot worse for all people in uniform.
- Is latest Prius driver acceleration victim faking for a big payday? This background info casts a very big shadow on the whole episode. And is he really running a shadow life involving swinging and mysterious thefts?
- Sony introduces new PS3 motion controller. This really isn’t news, it’s a product press release. But it showed up in so many places that I am starting to wonder what really is news these days… here and here. Why did I even bother with this one? Good question.
- What do you do when you have a dead moose in your yard? First thing, get your puppy away from it. Second thing: Open up the Yellow Pages and find a “moose carcass removal service”. Sounds easy, right?
Have a great weekend!
