I want to challenge myself to talk to strangers when I go places. Baby steps are better than nothing, right? I just want to ask about simple things...like what time it is, how someone's day is going, or just simply saying hello. Maybe also complimenting people just to conversate a little bit, like "Your shoes are really nice, where did you get them"
Anyway, my point is..can you help me think of other things that I could say?
I want to have a lot of options so I don't get bored with it day after day. I can't think of anything else other than the ones I've already mentioned.

"Hello" is a good place to start.
I live in Pennsylvania. Just recently it got hot, so my comments have been "Nice 'summer' we're having." I usually get a laugh.
People also will agree with a mild complaint. Like "I hate long lines....", or "banks are such a pain".
If your standing in a queue and you here pple huffing and puffing cause its taking to long, not enough tills open etc, you can make a comment and they will respond.
Also if your in a food store you can look at what they have in their trolley or basket and say something like "ive not tried that, whats it like?" "Or how do you cook that?"
Pple love to talk about other pple so if your sitting somewhere and you see a
jogger ...."I wish i had that level of fitness"
A guy wearing something unusual, make a comment about what he's wearing
A women who catches your eye, make a comment about her (not while with another women tho, lol)
Animals... dogs and cats
Plants, if your in the park
Buildings and architecture
Basically its all about being aware of your surroundings and using what is at hand!
