talking to mute

The increasingly common situation where an individual on a conference orvideo call talks extensively without remembering to turn on their microphone. Also an excuse for situations where that same person wasn't paying attention to the call whatsoever. This situation is most common in conference call scenarios although it can also be seen in video conferences, particularly in the current work-from-home environment.

"Jamie? Jamie?? You there? We need your approval to allow the project to start."

(long pause)
"Oops, sorry, guys. Talking to mute again." (with the sound of toilet flushing in the background)

Shout Talking

Loud, intense, boisterous, uninterrupted COVID conversation. Often during a Zoom call, one will shout talk to ensure that their voice is heard.

The conversation in the Office pertaining to COVID was so loud that shout talking was the only way to get a word in edgewise.

vodka talk

The detailed conversation that you had that gets wiped clean from short term memory due to repeated ingestion alcohol.

An overly ambitious boast that doesn't get executed because of ten times distilled potato juice.

Can't believe Emily didn't remember she could pick your mom up from the airport on Saturday I guess it was just Vodka Talk.

You'll never do a stand-up Kathleen it's just Vodka Talk.
