Conversation incremulate

When someone is focusing on something else while youre telling a story and they realize youre talking, in the middle of your story they say " wait what were you saying? sorry i wasnt listening" pretty much sending the message that theyre not interested in what you have to say or theyre busy and they dont have time to talk.

Daniel: man today my teacher was talking about his mom, and then missy was like 'what about your dog?' and he was like well his name is..
Nicki: Im sorry what? i wasnt listening
Daniel: Damn, you just conversation incremulated me!
Nicki: Sorry

coyote conversation

When someone starts a conversation, then keeps talking without shutting up and traps you in an endless stream of babble until you are ready to do anything, even chewing your own arm off to escape!

She started off talking about her latest relationship and went on and on without stopping. After half an hour, I literally had to pretend that I was sick and ran to the bathroom to get away. It was a total coyote conversation!
