the trail off

when a group of people are talking/bitching about someone they're not sure they should be because either someone in the group is a big gossip or friends with the person they're bitching about; they 'beep' out the important words by trailing off.

example of the trail off in action

person 1: yeah i know she's so like.. mm
person 2: yeah and she came in and was like.. yeah
person 1: *agrees* yeah i remember that, it was so like...
person 2: yeah.. what is with her..

person 3: CAN SOMEONE PLEASE FINISH THE SENTENCE?!

off trail

Not on the groomed trail or stuck in a hole

God we have to pull him out again . “Hey at least I go off trail”

get off my trail

Similar to "get off my dick" and "get off my back", basically meaning stop following me or leave me alone.

"Yo bro aren't you broke?"

"Get off my trail"

Or

"Get off my trail and stop following me."
