Conversation Starters
Everyday from 4PM to 4:30PM I find myself sitting in the front room of the building in which I work, alone but for an incredibly attactive girl sitting opposite me. And everyday, that half an hour passes in absolute silence.
It's not that we don't like each other. We haven't really worked alongside for long enough to have a solid opinion of each other. We're just two particularly bad conversationalists.
And this is where I need your help, fellow GDers. I need some ideas as to what to say, how to start a conversation with her, so that eventually we'll be comfortable in each other's company. Something witty, something funny, something deep... just something that provides the foundations for building up a friendship.
By the way, although I'd like to give her a good hard seeing to, all I really want is something to make those thirty minutes that little bit more interesting, so if possible, refrain from suggesting chat up lines or anything similar to chat up lines (compliments are okay).
GO!

"So, erm... have you ever had two men at the same time?"
I hope you didn't expect any more mature suggestions

Ask her what she's working on for a start, but make it clear that if you're interrupting her for her to just say.

No, that's gay, got to be more forceful.
Something like "Hey baby, if you handle your men like you handle your keyboard I'm in for a right seeing to! WOOF! WOOF!! "

Claim not to know the locations of the nearest toilet, and demand that she tell you where they are.
Or
"Ahoy, you wouldn't happen to have a pen\pencil\paper I can borrow would you, as I appear to have misplaced mine." Then comment on the sensuality of the pen\paper\pencil.

Yes, and then when you get the pen, slowly start licking it.... up.... and down... up.... and down....
and then put it in your mouth, and carefully suck on it.... carefully.... in.... and out.... in.... and out....
and slowly start to suck it harder, and wilder.... and harder.... faster....
And then you'll have sex with her....
or not ofcourse...

Cut the bottoms out of your pockets so you can fumble with yourself, and then wink and lick your lips when she looks up to see what all the moaning is about.

With that line you will appear to be an easy chetter, not taking things to serious. It's a good thing, trust me.
Alternativly you could try:
Look over at her and make eye contact, make a badly camuflaged grin, and look down, look back upp again and say:
"I'd just like to let you know that I don't mind if you start talking to me at all. I'm really not as busy as I seem." Then grin again.

I 've attempted the small talk, but it 's not been very successful so far. I figure making her laugh is the way forward, but I have no idea how to do so, since my vocabulary of humour consists of fart and mom jokes.

For some of us this comes automatically, but remember that these people are not as pretty as us Silver.

Introduce yourself for a start.
Then be like. What do you do or sth
don't sleaze.
oh
to get good rapport, try and mimic how she sits, if you do it subtly enough, it's a big sunconcious thing as it seems like you're clicking, even if you do it on purpose.
also, look into her eyes when you speak.
and, if she is good looking and you are ugly, make sure you have a nice personality.

Explain that a future version of yourself travelled back in time, and told you that the world was doomed, and that the only thing that could save the planet from certain destruction is the superhero, that would result from the combination of your and her dna.
Alternatively, rent a horse and carriage, ride to somewhere nice, where you can watch the sunset, and ask her to marry you.
Which of the above approaches you choose, depends on your motives.

Any sort of comment, if you can interspere with "funny" will work.
Or, some specific thing related to you, which you can turn into a conversation piece. So, for example, I never wear a coat (don't ask) and therefore on any sort of cold-day I can turn the reason why I don't wear a coat into the beginning of a conversation.
Alternately, asking some really banal could work as an opening. For example, do you know even vaguely where abouts she lives? Like which side of town? Just say you live on the other side of town (or whatever) and you need to know how to get to X (which is closer to her house than yours). When people are giving directions (or recalling any kind of factual information) they tend to relax on a certain level as it's not a pressured social encounter. You can then weave in anecdotes into the discussion if you want.
So, for example, upon speaking to someone from my work I enquired which side of Bromley she was from, as I needed to get a bus to Chislehurst. She then vaguely went over where she was from. I interrupted and said I thought only gypsies came from there (in a humorous fashion), she laughed, and conversation pursued, although I realised I had been continually insulting gypsies for about 20 mins by the time the bus came. Then I realised that (a) I was married, (b) I'm an ugly bastard and this girl was way out of my league and (c) this girl seemed to be anti-gypsy bigot, although so I was I at this point, so I gave up.
But still...

I don't like clothes. The most I generally wear is a dressing gown.
