Um, I’ll Let You Know…Things People Say Just to Be Polite

15.  It was nice meeting you.

You meet someone just long enough to know that they’re not looking forward to snow, live in the area and you have a mutual acquaintance.  It’s one of those shallow social interactions you have with a friend of a friend, a prospective employer or your UPS delivery guy.  Was it really nice meeting someone you may or may not ever see again?  You barely know them.  I mean these interactions don’t exactly suck, but most of them aren’t life changing either.  Before I tell someone this again, I’ll need at least 10 minutes of profound conversation.
