How does one eat and make conversation at the dinner table at the same time without appearing offensive?
Rule #1: DO NOT get drunk. Omit, or at least limit, alcoholic intake. People talk louder when they drink alcohol. Their convictions become stronger; therefore they can be perceived as obnoxious and offensive.
Rule #2: Avoid controversial subjects such as sex, religion, politics, and controversial characters (e.g. Monica Lewinsky, Hillary Clinton, Tom Daschel, etc.)
Rule #3: Listen to others more than talk about yourself. Your interest in another person makes you a more interesting person. Talk to people on both sides of you through out the meal.
Rule #4: Know your table manners! Chew with your mouth closed and enjoy the experience.
