re: I realized why group conversations usually suck

Hell sometimes people are just straight up cutting off the person talking.

This is generally true. I've found that:
a) most people only want to talk, not engage in an actual two-way conversation
b) most people confuse waiting for their turn to talk with actual listening

When this happens (and it always does), I get up and get a fresh drink or some fresh air.
