in conversation, you could always fall back on your media experiences. So SO many people just talk about movies and music, games too.
also, did you know that when you read interesting things from interesting people, those interesting ideas become part of you? that's how I enjoy thinking of it. so if you read interesting things from interesting and obscure people, especially historical people, then you will have things to talk about (often very shocking things), and also become wise. In many ways, those experiences have become yours. that's what i tell myself, when i get sad about how little i've done with my life so far...
also refocusing your mindset. dont think about how interesting or uninteresting you might seem to the person you're talking to. think about how interesting THEY are!
i feel the same way, a lot.
