talking to mute

The increasingly common situation where an individual on a conference orvideo call talks extensively without remembering to turn on their microphone. Also an excuse for situations where that same person wasn't paying attention to the call whatsoever. This situation is most common in conference call scenarios although it can also be seen in video conferences, particularly in the current work-from-home environment.

"Jamie? Jamie?? You there? We need your approval to allow the project to start."

(long pause)
"Oops, sorry, guys. Talking to mute again." (with the sound of toilet flushing in the background)

It’s the algorithm talking

When people that you care about have been negatively manipulated by social media falsehoods, nonsense and conspiracy theories.

Similar to ‘it’s the whiskey talking’ when friends lose their filter after a night of drinking.

Cut Uncle Lenny some slack - it’s the algorithm talking.

Tide Talking

When a child is crying uncontrollably and you attempt to talk like an auctioneer to a third person within the painfully short, quiet, rhythmic, predictable breath(or reloading) periods of the aforementioned child's bawling.

Dean would not stop crying, so we tried tide talking for 5 minutes straight to spite him.
