Conversation Wedge

b. when you are in a conversation and say something really awkward and the conversation stops because you can't say anything else

a. "Did you see how Jenny just came up and started talking to us? She's such a conversation wedge."
b. Person A: "Yeah so I was at my dad's girlfriend's place, and all I could notice was how she left her clothes everywhere!"
Person B: "I love smelling underwear."
Person A: "That's awkward. Why do you always have to create a conversation wedge?"

Conversational Probe

when your doctor gets chatty during a prostate exam

Lou had his annual physical, and after fasting he was in a very grumpy mood. when his doctor got to the point of "the finger", Lou felt him fishing around up there like he lost his keys. "so how the kids doing? everybody good? hmm... does that hurt" the doc asked during a very Conversational Probe. Lou thought to himself, "you have your finger in my ass what do u think dude"

conversational decay

Conversational decay refers to the amount of time it takes for a conversation with a stranger to die down to stagnation.

In-person:

Let's say you met someone from your class or work for the first time and start talking about mutual interests, the decay of that conversation wouldn't be as quick. Therefore, it's reasonable to state that the conversational decay would be somewhere between 30 minutes to an hour.

Online:

If you meet someone on Discord for the first time and start a regular conversation with them, it is estimated that it may take between 1 minute to a few weeks for your conversation to completely stagnate with them.

The person Harry matched up with on Bumble seemed pretty promising but, the conversational decay was under 10 minutes.
