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.

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"

To plough on with a conversational monologue thats stopped interesting anyone anymore.
Usually realised when, having finished your point, you are met with a silent room and you have killed the conversation

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.
