Conversation Bear Trap 

A social situation in which one wanders into an inescapable -and typically brutally awkward - conversation unwittingly. Often victims will step into the conversation bear trap with an innocuous greeting like, "Hey Deb, what's up?"
"Careful around that new Account Manager, dude's a conversation bear trap."

"Whatever you do, don't ask Andi about her wedding. Conversation bear trap."

Conversation Ninja 

One makes a single random comment in someone elses conversation, which ends up killing it and making it awkward for everyone else. This is similar to a ninja swiftly killing a target then exiting.
Guy 1: Hey, do you see that really hot chick over there?
Guy 2: Hell yea, Id hit that all night!
Conversation Ninja: I screwed her and gave her herpes *disappears*
Guy 1: Oh... Im gonna go now.

Conversation Jacker 

Almost immediately after beginning to tell a story, you are interrupted by someone who begins to tell their own story of how the same thing happened to them. The interrupter continues to talk about themselves, and they never ask you about your story as if it never happened.
"I began to tell Stephanie how I almost got into an accident today, but she started telling me how she almost got into an accident as soon as I started my story!Then she just kept talking about all the accidents she almost got into in her life and never asked me about my accident. She's such a conversation Jacker."

Al: "So then I had to buy up all the bread in the store. Crazy, right?"
Joe: "Yeah!"
Al: "Mhmm."
Joe: "Mhmm."
Al: "We hit a conversation stalemate, I'll text you later."

Conversation Starter 

The term used for a $1 bill in a strip club/shake joint setting.
As one friend pulls out a wad of $1 bills, his buddy says to his friend:

"Damn man, look at all those those conversation starters...."

Another example would be:

Friend #1: Damn man, we heading to the shake joint so you know I need some ones.

Friend #2: We straight bro, I got change for dat 20 at the liquor store, so we got 20 conversation starters between the two of us.
