Conversation Wedge

a. when two or more of your friends (or even strangers) are talking, and you come up between them and insert yourself in the conversation
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?"

mechanical conversation

A mechanical conversation consists of small talk. Usually found on the internet, but sometimes comes between two aquaintances who are waiting for something or someone. It is usually very choppy and awkward.

"Nice day, huh?" - man 1

"Oh, uh, ya." - man 2

"I'm really enjoying the sunshine." - man 1

Man 2 nods in recognition to Man 1's statement. (if on internet it would usually be an 'lol')

{awkward silence}

"So ummm.... how 'bout them Red Socks?" - man 1

later

"I had a very mechanical conversation why i was waiting for you earlier." - man 2

"Really? Awkward." - man 2's friend.
