Person 1: "So anyway, that pretty much sums up me and Sunni's problems these days."
Person 2: "I'm sorry man. I hope it gets better soon! .....hey, did I ever tell you about my girlfriend from
two years ago? She had this thing where she would
always....."
(Person 1 interrupts, totally not listening or caring about what person 2 was saying in any form or fashion)
Person 1: "WELL, honestly, I just
don't
know what Sunni is thinking these days, or why these problems are
even happening...."
(Person 2 feels ignored and annoyed)
Person 1 has shown an example of how to "Garrison the conversation".
