How hard is it to say "appreciate your friendliness, but I'm in the middle of a good book right now, thanks".

Or on a plane "I'm not in the mood for a conversation right now. But thanks for being friendly. Enjoy the flight"
I personally prefer to use clear verbal signals, such as "I'm reading right now, if you talk to me again, I'm going to rip off your face"
