Related to the first one - my "favorite" is people who ask something, and then say "see! You don't have an answer" as you're about to answer. Like it had to be right on the tip of my tongue, completely ready the second they stopped talking.

In regards to the second one - some people deliberately make jokes that they know are making a person uncomfortable, in order to provoke a response. I can always tell when it's this and not just cluelessness, because the person keeps bringing it up over and over again until they get the response they want.

A good way around that is to have a phrase like "I've got an idea, just let me think how to word it" and hold your hand up in a wait gesture as you figure the best phrasing out. As long as you don't make them wait more than 15 seconds or so, you'll get a chance to put your words in edgewise.

If it's at work, write down your thoughts on a piece of paper so nothing gets forgotten or left behind, even if not in the meeting you can bring your ideas up individually later.
