Ways to Avoid a Severely Awkward Situation

1. If they’re talking too much

Since there’s not a really polite way to tell other people to keep their mouth shut, you can try this trick to interrupt someone.

This will make them realize that they’ve been talking for a long time and they’ll feel uncomfortable, which will most likely make them stop talking.
