Talking to your villagers too much makes their brains malfunction.

I've had interesting conversations with my villagers. Caesar salad seems to be a recurring topic among my villagers.

One convo I recently had with a villager during the cherry-blossom season, and it was specifically based on that event.

I have bandages on my character's face everyday. So many villagers ask the character if she's okay or seriously hurt. Biskit even cried and said something like 'You don't have to lie to me, Dae-Dae! You're so strong!' It was really sweet. The writers really put a lot of thought into the dialogue; the amount of detail is amazing
 
I remember around December when I was trying to get everybody's Christmas present hints I had trouble getting the second hints out of Mallary and Bettina. I'm pretty sure they both came close to taking out restraining orders on me. They never hit the point of completely ignoring me or losing their tempers, but Mallary said: "How many times has it BEEN today, lamb?!" at least twice a day for about five days. Bettina was more patient, but after a while I could tell by her weak grin and upside down eyebrows she was getting fed up.

My villagers never shut up about what tools I'm holding. In fact, Mira actually asked me what I was searching for with my shovel and gave me three options to chose from. I soon learnt not to approach anyone while holding a slingshot as I've had villagers start crying or shaking for fear that I'm planning to use my slingshot to shoot at them. I felt quite the monster frighting Punchy so much.
 
I was playing wild world the other day, and noticed a big difference in the level of engagement, like in wild world they'd come up to you a lot more often and sometimes multiple villagers at a time will need you, in ACNL it's less frequent, it's a bit like they keep themselves to themselves :/
I think that's why i'm less engaged with villagers nowadays compared to before (though it's partly due to lack of time and focusing more on other aspects of the game like town designing than villagers)

I noticed that with how they interact with each other. In Wild World, you are likely to see your villagers have conversations among themselves pretty much every time they cross paths. That seldom happens in New Leaf.
