Conversation Killers
ThatNiceMan asks: Have you ever been talking with people down the pub when somebody throws such a complete curveball (Sample WTF moment: "I wonder what it's like to get bummed") that all talk is stopped dead? Tell us!

Plus three lightening attack to all locations
Many, many moons ago, I did a really rubbish IT apprenticeship that I eventually got sacked from. There were about 25 of us IT apprentices. The everage age of just about everyone on the course was 17. in fact, 23 of them fell were 16, 17 or 18. Except for me and one other. I was 23, the other bloke was pushing 25. It's amazing how immature you find teenagers when you're in your early-mid twenties, so me and the other older bloke kinda gravitated together - not least because we were the only ones who actually wanted to be there or pass the college course.
Anyway, the poi nt of this post - the other bloke was a LARPer. I don't have a problem with this, I play far too much in the way of computer games and frequented Games Workshop in those days. Howevere, this bloke was utterly obsessed with LARPing and I do mean UTTERLY obsessed, there was nothing else he would ever talk about. Ever.
So he was The King Of The Conversation Killers. No meatter what we were talking about, he could kill the conversation stone dead with a few choice sentences.
For example, one lunchtime, we were all debating whether the Nova SRi or the Fiesta XR2i was the better car. In an ever so slight pause in the heated debate, LARPer chimes in with "I found a new weapon last night that does plus three lightening attacks to all locations". Silence followed.
