I walked down the hallway of my school one monday telling my friend how my weekend was when she turned into the library without my knowing; I was still talking. I was at the end of the hallway when I realized she wasn't there, it was then that I figured out why everyone was giving me funny looks. -Invisible Conversationalism-
A forced conversation with a person who is obviously not interested in talking to you; talking to a person who is trying to read or study, stopping a person in the hall who was avoiding eye contact with you, and seeking a person out for a pointless conversation are all conversational rape.
