The feeling you get in the morning after having a really deep discussion with someone right before going to bed.
Jennifer: I woke up this morning with a conversation hangover I think...lol.
Steve: Yeah that will happen when we talk about deep stuff right before bed.
(1) a conversation held in an old-fashioned manner, usually face-to-face or on the phone; often used to denigrate old-fashioned bosses or old school parents
(2) a face-to-face conversation, as opposed to conversations via text, email, twitter or phone
(3) a conversation that instantly becomes memorable
If I had known we were going to break up via twitter, I would've asked for a classic conversation.
After all of the sexting, the classic conversation was a little weird.
My boss is old school. Doesn't do email and always wants a classic conversation.
It's when one uninvolved and uninvited asshole barges in on a private conversation, and dominates it to the exclusion of one of the original people who was conversing. This can be a form of cockblocking.
Jason: John is a complete asshole. Notice how he is always stealing the conversation?
Joe: Yeah, what a fucking cockblocker!
A mechanical conversation consists of small talk. Usually found on the internet, but sometimes comes between two aquaintances who are waiting for something or someone. It is usually very choppy and awkward.
"Nice day, huh?" - man 1
"Oh, uh, ya." - man 2
"I'm really enjoying the sunshine." - man 1
Man 2 nods in recognition to Man 1's statement. (if on internet it would usually be an 'lol')
{awkward silence}
"So ummm.... how 'bout them Red Socks?" - man 1
later
"I had a very mechanical conversation why i was waiting for you earlier." - man 2
"Really? Awkward." - man 2's friend.
Someone who listens to a conversation but never contributes
Jenny is such a Conversational Sponge! I want her to say something!
A scorched earth approach to obliterating someone's conversation that is not your own.
Interrupting a conversation and quickly dominating the topic, or changing it entirely.
Much like Conversation Hijack, but with a militant approach.
Jody and I were having a private conversation when Carol walked in, asked us what we were talking about, and then quickly changed the topic to something she was interested in - Obliterating our conversation with Conversation Napalm.
