non sequitard 

A chain of logic with ends so remote that to anybody else it seems to be completely unrelated. Like a wiki walk, but through your head, and there's no history.

Example of a non sequitard:

Alice: Hmm... I think Grassy Knoll Dew would be better than Mountain Dew.
<pause>
Bob: Would walruses fight for us in the zombie apocalypse if we gave them buckets?
Bob: Don't even try to figure out how I got there.

borderline non sequitur 

1. A statement that only just succeeds in logically following the statement that came before it.

2. A statement that logically follows the statement that came before it, but to an insignificant degree.

Adi: Cha' it makes sense, twas a borderline non sequitur though. You were quite roundabout in the way you were trying to explain your point. I almost thought you were about to continue that abrupt transition to it's endmost unrelated-ness. Where we would begin exploring a path of some non sequitur, but you just barely somehow inbrought all those tangential thoughts together to explain your point. I'm impressed.

Non Sequiturious

(adj) describing a random statement or conclusion that has nothing to do with the statements made prior to it.

Several family members are discussing what to have for supper: "spaghetti? hot dogs?"
when Bill Doe says, "we should hire rodeo camel trainers to help us uncover the secrets of the Bermuda triangle!!"

His statement does not relate to any of the previous statements, and thus is "Non Sequiturious."
