If someone says 'cut the small talk', it means that this pointless conversation is headed nowhere and has no meaning. It can be used when:
- The
person is tired of wasting their
time and energy talking or doing something with someone, feeling it is going nowhere
Applicable situations:
1) First encounter with a stranger, too much small talk
2) Multiple encounters with stranger, with nothing happening
3) Estranged family members, you mutually both wouldn'
t go out of your way to meet them after the event
Do not
use if you:
- Will feel
awkward afterwards, or feel the need to talk to
people around you to prevent 'awkward silence'
- Have got no balls (applicable to male and female)
Do use if you:
- Would rather sit there in another persons company and not talk because theres no point.
