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.

door conversation

When a social gathering is about to disband, everyone makes their way to the exit, and then continues to talk for another 15 minutes.

"Well, I guess I should be going..."
*makes way to door*
15 Minutes later: *still chatting, altho now dressed in coat, shoes, etc* - This is a door conversation

Conversation Cuffs

The imaginary handcuffs slapped upon you when someone engages you in what should be a brief conversation, but turns into a long, drawn-out monologue. You are trapped in a conversation from which you cannot escape.

"Sorry I'm late for our meeting but I ran into Julie and she had me in conversation cuffs and I couldn't get away."

conversation shitter

A toilet in a school men's room where there is no stall or door around it, allowing for anyone else who walks in to begin conversation with you while you shit.

I don't like to be visible to others while I shit, but the only toilet in this restroom is a conversation shitter.

"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".
