Rule of Conversations

The Rule of Conversations is to only be the first to start a conversation with someone online or over text twice in a row lest you always be annoying them
"Have you talked to Lacy recently?"

"No I started conversations the past two times; if she really wants to put in effort in this friendship, she needs to start one now!"

"Ah, the Rule of Conversations, huh?"

conversation-continuing crouch

Refers to the humorous-looking but gentlemanly maneuver that you perform when you hafta pass between two people who are speaking with each other, but you still wanna maintain your momma's oft-admonished politeness-directive of "don't stand between two people when they're talking"; what you do as you approach the pair, therefore, is to hastily stoop down far below head-height and then speedily slitther your way through between the two conversers, so that they can continue talking and maintaining eye-contact "over your head". Again, employing the "triple-C" can indeed appear amusing to observers, but they will still be grateful to you for your showing them this extra measure of etiquette, especially if their conversation was rather tense/involved/emotional, they were in a hurry to finish speaking and be on their way, etc.
My local commercial-fishing buddies are fairly causal-minded and know me quite well, but I am sure they still appreciate my always practicing the conversation-continuing crouch whenever I hafta pass between them during a chat.

Conversation jumper

That one annoying asshole who no one talks to and just jumps into conversations that they weren’t involved in not to mention no one was talking to them and they do this because they’re lonely as fuck
John: "So, Sarah, what do you think about going hiking this weekend?"

Sarah: "I'm all for it! The weather should be perfect."

Mark: "Hey, guys, have you ever tried rock climbing? I hear it's a great workout!"

John: *whispers to Sarah* "Looks like we've got a conversation jumper on our hands."

Sarah: *nods* "Yeah, it seems like Mark just can't resist jumping into our conversations."
