Nonversation 

A non-converation where two or more people greet each other but do not follow with a conversation, but instead follow with an awkward silence, that can result in figeting and short quick glances around the room.
Zack: So, how did you like my friend Michael?
Matthew: He's really nice, but after you left we had a really weird nonversation. It was really awkward!
Zack: Man, I hate those.

nonversation 

When you're sitting at a table full of people (pref. boisterous and social) but you're between two conversations, and no matter how hard you try, you can't seem to get into either of them.

So you end up staring at your drink.

Sad.

Alone.
"Hey Rod, why so quiet?"

"Wha--? Oh sorry -- I'm stuck in the nonversation over here."

Nonversation 

I don't talk much, so most the time I just join a little nonversation

nonversation 

When 2 or more people are together but not talking. Or when a group of people are talking together, but one or more of them is sitting in silence.
*silence*

Thats a nonversation.

nonversation 

Talk that doesn't consist of anything besides the boring or the usual. Small talk, about as common as the plague.
"So how was your day?"
"Fine."
Sigh, yet another nonversation.

Nonversation 

A nonversation occurs when someone talks to you (most commonly on a social networking site or via text) about something you don't care about and can't really answer back to.

If you're ever in the situation where someone is talking AT you and your brain says "I don't actually care" then you're in a NONversation!

You: Cool...

You: Yeah so I'm going out now talk later

Nonversation 

A conversation in which words are exchanged between people — often co-workers — but nothing is really said.
Two office colleagues bump into each other in the hallway. This is them having a nonversation:

Office worker #1: Hey, so I heard it went well.

Office worker #2: Yup. Went great.
Office worker #1: Glad to hear. And we're still good for Tuesday?
Office worker #2: Yup. Nothing's changed.

Office worker #1: Great. Well let me know if anything does.
Office worker #2: Of course.
Office worker #1: Ok, great. Thanks.
