But if it is an unSwanky public spat then I do believe the traditional thing is not to give up the battlefield but to continue until someone (and let's pause to mentally compose the list of 5 mostly people) comes in something intended to distract the course of conversation back to shallow water (perhaps an intentionally but humorously sexual sentence clause) so everybody can cling to it and whistle past the graveyard.

Wait. I believe there is a grab bag of appropriately distracting thing that "should" be said in case of overwhelming discussions:

Choose one from the following selection:

Shiny
Pass the Popcorn and/or Red Vines
Get a room
Something about a Sphincter and accouterments
Boobies
Tacos


(I feel as if I'm forgetting a few important choices - forgive me.)
