My job involves making lots of small talk. I've got a bit formulaic, but it works for the environment. Mind you it isn't designed to get me laid so you might need to modify it.
1. What is your job/major/hobby/pet/sexuality/etc? (Short answer)
2. Do you like that? (short answer)
3. Why do you like it? (long answer)
The trick is listening and understanding the response to ask questions that lead somewhere.
Other standbys:
What kind of music/TV shows/movies/sports do you like (add Q. 3, above)
Which are better: dogs or cats?
Your last vacation.
