Serious topic.
This is probably what I suck at the most in life. Whenever I meet a new person, I never know what to say and I end up saying something really stupid.

For Example:
I'm alone in the car with somebody going out to lunch.
"..."
Me: So yeah what are you getting at jack in the box
Him: I don't know. Probably a Chicken sandwich.
Me: Oh yeah? That's cool...
...

Bad example but seriously what do you do to break the ice

What's your name
Where are you from
Do you like sports?

If they answer no to that last question, all hope is lost

Himu

Well...

I just make whoever it is comfortable.  Make them laugh, ask dumb what is your favorite asdfghjkl; questions.

Point at something and ask them to identify it. Then pat them on the head and scratch under their chin if they are correct.
