Why We Talk About The Weather
By MEHRAN K. THOMSON, Ph. D.
Author of The Springs of Hunan Action."
"Nice day," you say to a stran
ger, and he agrees with you. What
else is there for him to do? Any
one ean see that It is a nice day.
Ton have picked out a self-evident
fact which needs no further
proof. At a bit of Information It
is ridiculously absurd. Of course
your object wa not to inform the
other person, but simply to make
conversation and to show a friend
ly attitude.
We talk about the weather be
cause it is. the safest topic ot con
versation. It you approach a
stranger with the jubilant declar
ation: "Isn't it fortunate that we
have a Republican president?"
you may make a hit; you may
get hit. Tou will fare no better
by opening up on a religious top
ic or any other where there is the
slightest chance for a difference
of opinion. The "weather leaves no
room . for prejudice or personal
opinion. ;
The weather Is a safe bet be
cause you are. not responsible tor
it, The person whom you greet
with .f'Nice day,'! may not want
ft nice on. this particular occasion.
Perhaps he predicted bad weather
and placed a bet on his calcula
tions. But he can't be offended at
you because he knows you are in
no way responsible.
The weather Is a handy topic
among friends as well as among
strangers. If the meeting is brief,
the weather Is about as good as
any for a "greeting which he can
straightway forget and not have
to brood over your meaning and
hidden motives.
The weather also serves as a
legitimate tople of conversation
In its own right. To greet another
person with "Fine day. and have
his reply, "Tee, very fine," adds
something to your enjoyment, es
pecially it it is theyt good day
in many bad ones.S-enJoy shar
ing a good thing' with another
when it costs us nothing and we
have more of it by giving part
away. Similarlyit releases some
of the ontotional depression to
share a bad day. Whether the day
is fair or foul, there is an emotion
al release in talking about it.
The weather is a very useful
tople in the emotional and social
give-and-take of daily life. It is
a shock absorber. We have the
pleasure of conversation without
the risk of being contradicted.
We talk about the weather be
cause we ean talk without saying
anything:
Tomorrow Why we look
Around to See If Anyone Saw Us
Fall.
