quantum conversation 

When you're talking with someone who says stuff you can't make sense out of, so you treat their sentences as a superposition of all possible interpretations and reply to them generically enough such that when the point finally becomes clear, all your previous replies still make sense and you didn't end up having to make a fool out of yourself along the way.

I've had such a quantum conversation with my friend again. Thankfully I finally managed to understand what he was on about before I agreed to something stupid.

"Garrison the conversation" 

To unabashedly powersteer the topic of conversation back to what you want to talk about, regardless of what anyone else thinks.

Person 1: "So anyway, that pretty much sums up me and Sunni's problems these days."

Person 2: "I'm sorry man. I hope it gets better soon! .....hey, did I ever tell you about my girlfriend from two years ago? She had this thing where she would always....."

(Person 1 interrupts, totally not listening or caring about what person 2 was saying in any form or fashion)

Person 1: "WELL, honestly, I just don't know what Sunni is thinking these days, or why these problems are even happening...."

(Person 2 feels ignored and annoyed)

Person 1 has shown an example of how to "Garrison the conversation".

double back door conversation 

When you find your self cornered in a conversation where somebody is trying to either trap you into loaning money, shoes or asking you out, you might want to create a double back door conversation leaving yourself two ways out.

End of Meaningful Conversation 

When your friend IM's you about something random and then never responds to your answer.

friend: hey you back in your dorm room?
you: yeah
no response to this leaves you wondering what the heck the person wanted and was the end of meaningful conversation.

post-conversation conversation 

After having quite a long conversation; and after farewelling and parting from the other, one of the two in the conversation might suddenly bring up something new to talk about. This sparks an additional conversation about that topic. A post-conversation conversation can last up to a couple of hours; but normally last for about three to four minutes.

John: 'I just had the longest post-conversation conversation with Bob.'

Harry: 'cool beans.'
