Someone who lies in wait with a keen eye for someone who is about to leave, taking the opportunity to pounce and force a conversation upon his/her prey.
I’m leaving the office now, I am going to army crawl to the door so I don’t get snatched by the conversation pouncer, if you don’t hear from me in 15 minutes, please start a fire in the building so I can be released from the jaws of this predator.
1. how deftly an individual can adapt a story or sentence they are currently telling to steer the mood of the listeners in their favor

A real-life instance of good Conversational Reflexes:
I just was going 125mph in my rental car 10min before reaching a security checkpoint.
Officer: "is that a rental? how fast does it go?"
Me: "I wouldn't know, this car is really slow"
An individual who comes into a conversation and (Uncleverly) lays claim to all that was said. Like they brought all the information everyone was just discussing as their own. and worse?.....Believes that it were their own. this also can border line the grotesque acts of the "Conversation Vampire"!!!
Two people are standing there talking and a third person comes into the conversation, the third person nods head and agrees and within seconds begins to repeat what was said as it was their own idea, this is a "Conversation Thief". For it is obvious from the rest of the partakers in conversation that this individual lacks his or her own opinion, ideas, etc.
A fake conversation you have to distract or cover what you are really doing.
So I was looking at this girl but did not want her to notice so I started a cover conversation with my buddy.
A word or sentence that instantly kills any conversation.
John: "Oh hi! How are the kids?"
Susan: "I ate them."
Carl: "Have you seen Susan lately?"
John: "No, her conversational kills freak me out."
A conversation, usually over online chat, which has two separate unrelated topics being discussed at the same time.
