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"

Stealing the conversation

It's when one uninvolved and uninvited asshole barges in on a private conversation, and dominates it to the exclusion of one of the original people who was conversing. This can be a form of cockblocking.
Jason: John is a complete asshole. Notice how he is always stealing the conversation?

Joe: Yeah, what a fucking cockblocker!

Robbing the conversation

When a complete asshole takes over a private conversation already in progress an ignores one of the people previously in the conversation.

If one does this to his friends, he will soon have none.
Jason is hanging out with Seth and Brad and just talking about whatever. John comes in and starts talking about other shit that Jason isn't a part of, forcing him out of the conversation.

Eventually, Seth and Brad catch on that he is robbing the conversation and they beat the snot out of John.
