Prepare: Think of a believable excuse.
What to do: When the conversation gets unbearable, use your excuse as a reason to leave.
Example:
Jarrah: Hey, do you want to hear me sing? I've been practicing all day and-
Alberto: Umm, it's okay, you don't have to...
Jarrah: Oh, come on. You know you want to hear me sing.
Alberto: (glances at wristwatch) Hey, look at the time. My mom's gonna kill me if I break curfew again. I gotta go. (gets up to leave) Bye! See you later. (leaves)
Jarrah: (sings) Byeeeeeee! (glass shatters)
Conclusion: This is great when you've tried every other possible way to change the conversation and it hasn't worked. You leave and the conversation is over.
Warning: Only use this in the case of immediate emergency (like the prospect of your ears bleeding). It's pretty lame when you use something as uncreative as this. Remember, lying is WRONG...unless you happen to be very good at it.
