Something I never got about conversation pits is, when do you use it exactly. Do you hang out in there waiting for a conversation to start? Or do you start the conversation somewhere else and at some point say, "we should take this to the pit." Either option seems mortifying

I can’t add to this thread because this is the Correct Answer
