This reminds a lot of a post here on HN. Someone described a very different way some people talk to each other. If someone else was else was listening in, no sentence and it's response from the other person would seem related at all. But to them that communication is very coherent.

Trying to search that post.

Edit: in the discussion there was a link to a do a YouTube video where to movie characters were playing word badminton with each other.

You might be thinking of the discussion around the weavers and storytellers, which I only just realised the connection between The Weave and weavers.

The idea helps when talking with autistic people who might have quite extreme versions of weaving. A conversation between two weavers is kind of an exchange of blunt facts about their world views, which does sound a lot like disparate unrelated tidbits. In contrast to storytellers, who have a discrete path and story to tell, with a start and a finish.
