hierarchy of news

A phrase that can be used when, after a lengthy conversation, someone mentions an important piece of personal news. The phrase—often shouted—implies that the speaker should have mentioned the important news much earlier in the conversation.

::30 minutes into conversation::
Person A: ..(conclusion of long, boring, work story)...oh yeah and my car was stolen.
Person B: Wait, what? Hierarchy of news!
