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.

(1) a conversation held in an old-fashioned manner, usually face-to-face or on the phone; often used to denigrate old-fashioned bosses or old school parents
(2) a face-to-face conversation, as opposed to conversations via text, email, twitter or phone
(3) a conversation that instantly becomes memorable

If I had known we were going to break up via twitter, I would've asked for a classic conversation.
After all of the sexting, the classic conversation was a little weird.
My boss is old school. Doesn't do email and always wants a classic conversation.

The feeling you get in the morning after having a really deep discussion with someone right before going to bed.
Jennifer: I woke up this morning with a conversation hangover I think...lol.
Steve: Yeah that will happen when we talk about deep stuff right before bed.

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?"

A scorched earth approach to obliterating someone's conversation that is not your own.
Interrupting a conversation and quickly dominating the topic, or changing it entirely.
Much like Conversation Hijack, but with a militant approach.

Jody and I were having a private conversation when Carol walked in, asked us what we were talking about, and then quickly changed the topic to something she was interested in - Obliterating our conversation with Conversation Napalm.
