For our purposes here, we clarify Small Talk as follows:
Small Talk - id·i·ot·ic ban·ter "i-dE-'ä-tik 'ban-t&r" (n)1. Idle chat or "chit chat" 2. Conversation for the sake of conversation, only, with no real point to be made or opinion to be expressed (other than an inane opinion about the weather) 3. Rumor or the subject matter of gossip
EXAMPLES OF SMALL TALK include but are not limited to:
- "How are you?"... "Fine. How are you?"... "Fine."
- "Hello! Someone say hello to me!"
- "How's the weather in your neck of the woods?"
- "Certain members of this group may or may not be offline because they are in drug rehab, and their name rhymes with..."
We, as your Edge Management, feel that this is clarification enough to ban you if you use Small Talk on this board... ever. We assume you have read this notice before joining as you were warned to do.
