I have to post for the question of the day and need more ideas for interesting questions to ask or ideas to ask people for stories like "what's an embarrassing story you have?" but I already used that one?

Here are some interesting questions to ask if you want to break the ice, spark conversation, or just get to know someone better:
  • What’s the most memorable vacation you’ve ever been on?
  • What’s the best gift you’ve ever received?
  • What’s your favorite childhood memory?
  • Which of your achievements are you most proud of, and why?
  • What was it like growing up in your hometown?
  • What’s a fear you had to overcome, and how did you do it?
  • What’s the best piece of advice anyone’s ever given you?
  • What was your favorite family tradition when you were growing up?
  • What is one event that you consider to be a major turning point in your life?
  • What’s your favorite place in the world, and why?

A few interesting questions I would add to this list are “What were you like in high school?” and “What’s something that someone would be really surprised to learn about you?” These tend to reveal a lot about a person. You could also go for a simple question, like “What’s your pet peeve?”
