Where I work, there are televisions continuously burning either with Fox News or CNN. What that usually leads to is turning conversations towards current events, and/or politics. Unfortunately, political discussions often degenerate into polarized red/blue arguments, which I preffer not to participate in. Every so often, our lead supervisor comes in from out of town and we go to lunch offsite. Conversation usually revolves around the supervisor and his current 'mission' when this happens.
