More than idle curiosity prompted my question.

Small talk?

This is no time for silly conversation.

Oh, this is shop talk.

Even if you just want to talk, come on in and shoot the breeze.

Then finally, we ended ran out of chatter.

Just passing the time of day with these here cowpokes.

Karen and I were just chatting.

He tell you to hang around my wife?

Just now I was chatting with my parents.

And just from personal experience, we know that things on their own just don't kind of go to the macro state that has fewer micro states, you know.

I'll wait for you to continue our little talk.

I'm a dog to run off, I know.

Anything you don't understand, you call small talk.

Just bumped into one another. Got to talking, walking around.

The twilight bark? That's only a gossip chain.

Am I boring you with all this?

Does the play bore you?

I think it's really lame.

I was bored, so I fell asleep.

You're bored, aren't you?

No, to be honest, I find it dull.

No, those people bore me.

When we're finished, you can spend all your time making small talk.

You see, it's just not appropriate for him to spend all his days in the theater, loafing about!

At least, not for me.

But it slightly bores me.

Make him comfortable. Don't let him feel lonely.

You'll be bored stiff. Take me along.

Not about anything serious, simply laugh and gossip and forget for a while.

Throw that dreary letter away. It bores me.

Patsy, I'm sorry you're so bored tonight.

And two of them, two 20 something researchers at the APL are there at the cafeteria table having an informal conversation with a bunch of their colleagues.

It never hurts to discuss things.

I am bored.

What nonsense. Nonsense.

What a great bore.

Oh, it's so boring.

This is absurd.

Sometimes I have to read boring novels.

Something is better than nothing.

But I haven't time for saying

It's no fun!

Don't be soft.

Well, hell, what a bore.
