The Latin phrase non sequitur means, literally, it does not follow. Thus, non sequitur is a term used to describe a comment or argument that does not logically transition from the previous conversation. To use the phrase in a sentence, one must simply remark upon a seemingly random conversation shift.
A: So I decided to apply for a new job.
B: Really? Have you noticed the weather lately?
A: Well, that was a non sequitur.

His statement contained a non sequitur.
Answer:
A non sequitur is the attempted connection in a sentence of 2 things that have nothing to do with each other (from Latin: 'does not follow'):
Phone Call:
"Hi is the man of the house in?"
"No, my mommy likes eggs."
The answer had nothing to do with the question. Some very good humor can come from non sequiturs but it can't be over and over; repetition kills the funny and if you do use a lot of them, there should be some tiny connection between the parts:
"Hi, is your mommy there?"
"My sister has cooties"
"Oh, you know, cooties like bananas!"
"I don't like bananas"
"Oh then I guess you're not a cootie, is mommy home?"
Often an entertainer can get a real laugh from the audience when an audience member pops up a wild non sequitur and they run with it.
