Like any other psychology sub, except only post psychology things that are immediately usable. For example, see the posts in this sub.
You can edit titles to make the how to apply this psychology to your life more obvious.

Thanks for sharing this. How about just saying ‘Will you just shut up?’ :D
Of course I’m kidding… :-/ I mean it’s something I would like to say but probably wouldn’t. :D
It makes sense to not encourage the conversation to continue. I would probably just make up an excuse, lie to them, tell them I have to go now, to the bathroom or whatever. But it’s amazing how some people are so unaware of themselves…
The best approach is actually did not respond in any kind of significant way, including head nods
Hmm, I am not so convinced about that, because it will be obvious that you are not interested and that you don't want to be part of that conversation - and if you want to be obvious then it is much better to be direct than indirect!!
I prefer to just say that I have to go do whatever I have to go do next. But at my work I always have a lot to do, so maybe I have it easy in that regard.
