What is the easiest question to start with?
Begin with a clear choice: crispy food or gravy, morning or night, indoors or outdoors. It gives people a starting point without asking a new acquaintance to explain their whole life.
After the first answer, ask one small follow-up such as “what made you pick that?” or share your own answer. It feels like conversation, not an interview.
How do you make room for everyone?
Use one phone and take turns. Someone who is not ready can answer briefly, listen first, or skip. Do not turn the funniest answer into a standard everyone has to match.
For groups of six or more, keep a round to one question so the pace stays light.
When should the group go deeper?
Move on when people begin adding stories without being prompted. Try a question about one memory, a small dream, or something they are looking forward to. If the room goes quiet again, return to a lighter deck.
Every question can be skipped. Answers are spoken and are not saved by Bualora.
