Slang Gang Word of the Day


nonversation

A completely worthless conversation, wherein nothing is illuminated, explained or otherwise elaborated upon. Typically occurs at parties or other events where meaningful conversation is nearly impossible.

Smith: What a waste of time it is talking to that guy.

Jones: I know, every time I do, it's like a complete nonversation.



Is it a problem that I nonversate with myself daily?

I nonversate with myself all the time. It keeps me sane.
