[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]its an easy conversation[/quote] People are hoping it will trigger subsequent conversation (e.g., my brother went there, I used to live nearby, I almost went there—whatever). It also tells them where the kid is geographically. You sound defensive if this bothers you.[/quote] This. They assume it's important to them and you, and it's the kind of thing that can spark further conversation. Maybe they went there, know someone who went there, just visited that town, just hired someone from there, what's their major, how do they like it, etc. [/quote]
