Heres a simple opener you could use anywhere. I plan on using it in the mall because I actually plan on going to get my ears pierced so its relevant and it wont be a pointless question/opener. But here it is

Me:Hey I need help with something!
Them:Sure what is it
Me:Do you think guys look better with their ears pierced?
Them:yes/no because whatever their answer is
Me:Well I was just about to go get my ears pierced but I dont know if i should or not. Im getting cold feet ! What do yall think!
Them:Yes ull look great go ahead

Then stack to something else some other material

Me:Well before I go let me ask yall something else!
Them: ok!!

Then use whatever material you plan on stacking with, ill probably use another opinion opener, which would be a question about whether you should break up with someone through a text.
