There are 3 reasons you might stay in a conversation that you want to leave"

Though this article was quite clear and interesting about novel ways to get out of a "bad conversation", I think that it's certainly counterintuitive (and possibly simply untrue) to view interrupting someone and completely changing the subject as "polite." Especially when done in an abrupt and unsubtle manner (as is advocated here), that really seems to be a plain lack of patience and politeness.
This was very interesting to me, because there are always situations where you don't want to be involved. Just like Allison said earlier, some of the methods they provided seems rude. If one really wants to be excused from that situation, they should not be sneaky, but excuse themselves with confidence.
