Even if you do have someone’s attention, you have to make sure you keep it by making what you’re saying interesting. That’s where conversation starters come in. Good conversation starters are powerful because they initiate conversations that never would have happened otherwise. If they weren’t said, there wouldn’t be a conversation. If a conversation wasn’t started, there would be no way for people to get to know each other or form new bonds. Conversation Starters are good for two reasons: one, they serve as an icebreaker, and two, they pique people’s interest in each other and make them want to know more about each other. Weird conversation starters are basic conversation starters with a twist: They are strange enough to catch the conversation partner off guard, but not too weird that the person feels uncomfortable. The basic principle behind all good conversation starters is this: draw the other person out of their comfort zone by being interesting and different enough so that they want to talk more about what you said.

Weird conversation starters are a sure-shot way to create an environment where everyone can have fun and enjoy the moment. But what exactly is a weird conversation starter? Weird Conversation starters are questions or statements which will make your partner or someone thinks and later on lead to a very interesting discussion. It is like any other conversation starter, but here, the opening lines begin with weird questions, statements, phrases, sentences, and lines that keep the conversation going deeper. It had always been my habit to get into a conversation with random people, as it gives me a chance to know about them and also their perspectives about life, work, friends, and other things. I have tried so many different types of conversation starters, but here I am going to share some weirdest conversation starters and weird conversation topics that work pretty well for any situation either in person or through online texts, messages, and chats.

Weird conversation starters

Here is a list of weird conversation starters for almost any social or virtual situation:

  1. Did you know that…? This way of conversation-starting is a good idea if you want to talk about something that is quite funny or unusual. You can use this with any statement, but if you are looking for something more specific then you can try something like, “Did you know that ducks don’t have tongues?” Or, “Did you know that cats don’t have any taste receptors? This weird conversation starter will never fail because you can use it on anything from celebrity gossip to scientific theories. If you have enough facts tucked away in your brain, this is the perfect conversational tool for when you run out of weird conversation ideas. 2.  What would your last meal be? This question is a fun way to find out what sort of food the person likes and maybe even where they would go on vacation. If they are going to eat their last meal, then they have nothing to lose! 3.  Why do you think people like to watch other people suffer? If you’re watching reality TV, this could be a fun discussion topic. If not, then it can still be interesting to learn why people like to see other people suffer in movies or on TV shows. 4.  What if everyone had wings? This question makes you think outside of the box and imagine a world that doesn’t exist yet! How would the world change if everyone had wings?
  2. Ever thought about making a serious search for a soulmate? This comes out as a weird conversation starter, but it is also one that can lead to an interesting conversation. If someone has never thought about their soulmate before then they could have some really interesting ideas on why this might be the case.
  3. Are you tempted to take a one-way trip to Mars? This weird conversation starter is one that can trigger a lot of different responses, and it will help you to get to know the person you’re talking to a little better. This is because you will find out what they think about life and how they feel about their own life. Is this something that seems boring and mundane to them? Or is it something that they would like to do at some point in the future?
  4. So you knew that was coming huh? “So you knew that was coming, huh?” Why? This will grab your audience’s attention.  It’s a fun way to kick things off.  The seed of curiosity has been planted and they’ll want to know what you’re talking about.  The “look of confusion” is a great segue into whatever kitten-related topic you have chosen for this particular chat session (see below).
  5. Have you ever thought about… You can also just think of something interesting that is not directly related to the current conversation and ask your partner if they have ever thought about that. You might want to start with something not too personal (in case the other person is more reserved).  For example, if you are talking about sports, you could ask: “Have you ever considered what would happen if robots were allowed to compete in human sporting events?” Or: “Have you ever thought about what it would be like if we only had one gender?”
  6. What do you think about… This sort of conversation opener is a great way to make connections with anyone, even if you’ve just met them. It’s likely that the person you’re talking to will share their own thoughts and feelings on the matter, and then you can move into deeper discussion about it. Here are some questions to ask about current events:

What do you think about the US government shutdown?What are your opinions on Brexit?How do you feel about Trump’s latest move?

  1. Hey! Did you just…? This is one of the easiest ways to start a weird conversation: simply call someone out on something they’re doing or saying. This can be done in the form of a compliment, a question, or curiosity.  It can be as simple as “Hey, I love your shoes!” while passing someone in the mall, or as surprising and exciting as “Did you just quote from my favorite TV show?” even if it wasn’t.  The key point is that you’ve confronted them about something and now have an opening to continue the conversation with whatever stream-of-consciousness nonsense flows into your head next—or maybe even make some friends along the way.
  2. Have you noticed how fast time flies by nowadays? This is the kind of conversation starter that might catch a person off guard in a good way, and open up a new door to talk about something that isn’t what you typically hear about.  For example, you can talk about how your family spent their vacation, or when you did something really fun with friends. It can also get more philosophical, where people think about how they spend their time now compared to when they were younger.  Some people like to reflect on memories and conversations from their past as well. Using this conversation starter gives someone the opportunity to mention an important topic in their life without it seeming weird or forced.
  3. Can I take a picture with you? This is an unconventional opener that can lead to either a fascinating or completely awkward conversation. If they’re not in the mood, they may just ignore your request and tell you no.  If they are willing to participate, however, you have a fun opportunity to talk about why you were so intrigued by them and what it was about them that made you want to take their picture.  This approach sounds like it could be creepy—but think of how much more interesting this kind of opener is than the typical “what’s your name?”
  4. Are you a robot or what? Asking someone whether they’re a robot seems like a strange thing to ask, but it’s actually an effective way to get started on an unusual conversation. First of all, it’s unexpected.  The person you’re asking will probably pause for a moment before responding because they weren’t expecting the question. They might even answer with a confused “what?” or “huh?”  Which is totally fine. This just means that you’ll have the opportunity to clarify: “I mean, are you actually a robot? Like from the future?” Or something along those lines. This should provide ample material for more conversation about robots and how we feel about them and how much we know (or don’t know) about them in general.
