stop and chat

When someone stops to engage in a conversation with another while passing them in public. These conversations are short, meaningless, awkward and mostly unwanted by at least one of the parties involved. This term was coined by Larry David on the HBO series Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Oh there's Tom, don't acknowledge him, he always wants to stop and chat.
