I speak louder and say "I was speaking", then continue.

They generally look startled and shut up.

@briannawu Did that once in the company of older (boomer) women and they came up later and said "HOW DO YOU DO THAT?!?!".

I told them I just say the words and enjoy the confusion on the face of the dude I addressed.
