When someone calls me and doesn't have much to say, I respond to their comments and then don't say a word. I just sit there in silence. If they called, they can talk or ask something, but I'm not gonna carry on the conversation for them. People usually stop talking if there's dead silence and say they're gonna go. I have no qualms at all with sitting on the phone for a minute straight in silence. Making up a conversation or small-talk to break the silence just prolongs useless phone calls!
