To desist

The faux question

To make an interruption appear less harsh and objectionable one can interrupt by asking a question. The question is not polite and proper but a slimy rude obnoxious intervention. The person the question is aimed at will not be given time to answer it. Instead, the person interrupting with the question will interrupt them too, shortly after the question is posed. They will then talk about themselves now that they have stolen the conversation baton. The best counter is to eradicate them from your life. Alternatively, fire can be fought with fire. Raise your voice, interject and take the baton back.
