What would you consider a controversial discussion to start in a coffee house, bar, or other public setting, or a topic you wouldn't want to discuss publicly? Personal income? Politics? Religion?Taxes? Sexual orientation? I'd like to get everybody's top 3.

Just about anything involving race. I actually had to have a conversation about this the other day while eating with my brother and his little friend in Chick fil A... the kid (his friend) was saying that he went to a resort and there were no black people there and the only rich black people were like Oprah. I was horribly offended, I calmly went outside, smoked a cigarette, and came back in. Then I asked him how many black people lived in the area that we live (there aren't that many). Then I asked him if he'd ever been to Fayetteville (the area next to where we live, and where I went to school). I explained that in Fayetteville there were lots of black people, most of them were rich, and a good quantity of the white people live in trailer parks (which is true) and that there are lots of different places of which he's seen very few with many different races with different incomes that he doesn't know about because he hasn't traveled so much. My mom was there and she explained how her cousin who was home-schooled and not all too wealthy (also true) got into Harvard.
It was embarassing, but had to be done.

perhaps the different subjects should not be taboo. with scientific historic previous further to the record, what's there to talk approximately? i specific dont desire to take heed to approximately someones young ones and how they are doing in school, and except somebody has an exceptionally exciting activity, i dont desire to take heed to approximately that the two. so what we've here, is a socially proper communication that announces no longer something and means no longer something. time for yet another beer.
