As an English speaker, that just seems weird as hell to me lol. Why talk to other people as if they aren't there?

I honestly hate some of what gets defined as small talk...like I don't think, "How are you?" Is really an appropriate question for people you don't know...(if you actually want an honest exchange that isn't just filling the air with empty words/automatic responses. )
But books, movies, what someone is wearing, someone's pets, something their kid is doing, unusual or irritating weather...I think those can be decent conversation starters.
