    everyone hates it, and no, you don’t know what people are about to say all the time.

      I’m usually right about 60% of the time with strangers, though I’m intentionally not finishing the sentence aloud.
      With friends and coworkers it’s usually that we’ve forgotten a common word somehow and just appreciate the other person remembering it for us.

          It prevents the sentence from continuing which makes everyone want to either leave the conversation or try to “help out”. Same principle.
