We KEPT trying to change the subject. Other than saying "Shut the **** up" which I can't say because I was in a professional setting, I think I was VERY clear that I was uncomfortable and embarrassed and wanted the person to stop their side of the conversation.
You did what you had to do. Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending them. They were obviously being dense. If something like that happens again with someone else, I'd say "Hey! Knock it off or I'll have to take this to HR." That will put a stop to it.
