Do your characters shoo you away to "think about things"?

I had a void move in (ugh) on the day before Toy Day. So here we are on toy day, and this villager is the only one who's gift I don't know. I have been talking to him a lot to get his gift preference, and he tells me "Sorry, but I can't talk right now. J actually need to focus on something else." And has been walking around town with the thought bubble above his head for the past few minutes. This has happened to me multiple times with different villagers. Has it ever happened to you?
 
Yes it has happened to me, it is a game mechanic. When you talk to a villager several times in a row eventually they will shoo you away and have the thought bubble above them. Every villager in the game can do this action if you talk to them enough in a row.
 
Only very rarely.

I'm pretty sure you can look up villagers gift preferences online, like a Toy Day gift preference guide or something. I'm not sure though.
 
they do that after talking to them a lot. also like above, i think you can search up their preferences online.
 
Just wait a few minutes or save & quit and reload the game and you can talk to him again.

I don't think they'll tell you their gift preference ON Toy Day though, only the few weeks leading up to it, and iirc gift preferences are random and differ from town to town, so you can't look it up. But if you know all your other villagers' preferences, just give them their gifts first and by process of elimination you'll be able to figure out what the last villager's gift is
