"Folder talk" is a term for when someone is telling a you story and they change the subject in the middle of it,
creating a "folder inside of a folder". (A "folder" means a story/subject).
I am credited with introducing the term "Folder talk".
The idea for the name for the term sources from me being unable to finish a story without going into very unimportant details about a completely different story for the reason of me having a fear of being misunderstood which results in always creating a folder inside of a folder inside of another folder.
Folder talking might be irritating at times, but it's important to remember that a person who folder talks can't help it.
It's necessary that you sit through the whole story, act like you are invested, interested and fully understand it.

Me: "I once overheard a conversation of two people sitting next to me on the bus, they were talking about-
Oh, that just reminded me, have I ever told you about that one time that I-"
Y/N: "YO, STOP FOLDER TALKING!"
Me: "Oh, sorry!"

Get the folder talk mug.Boring mundane conversation often coming from family members in old age or younger people who act like them.
Eg. A mother telling her son on the phone that she had a horrible day because she misplaced her spatula which is usually in the second drawer but that everything was redeemed when she found it in the third drawer a few moments later. Spatula talk.

Oh my god; my mom is doing my head in with her spatula talk!
Sorry I’m late. I got stuck on the phone to Aunt Mildred who was spatula talking about her daily activities.
