\"Bummer\" (Am.жаргон) means many things, but in this case it can mean \"1. dull, boring; 2. strange, unusual; 3.it does not make any sense, stupid, weird.\"

Take your pick, it all depends on the context.

gosh, what a conversation!
well, you sure know how to start a dialog... (если разговорчик ещё не развили, а только затеяли)

а если разговор был утомительный и пустой, можно сказать чудесное \"yatata, yatata...\" %)

не. без контекста можно мюслями растечься.

  -> thanks!

agree  Jack Doughty: I don't thing a "bull session" is necessarily nonsense, it's just a prolonged general conversation. But it's US English anyway, so others will know better than I do.

  -> I'm not 100% sure about "bull session", either, but I thought that "bull" means "nonsense" in almost any context...
