2.) Inappropriate, scandalous or any other interruptive topics containing subject matter departing from the original topic of a conversation. Such as someone's interruptive tale of having sex on the beach when in fact the group were referring to the cocktail made from vodka, peach schnapps, orange juice and cranberry juice.
