If something is out of context it means it is out of its usual position, environment, or away from its usual associations, like a fish out of water, the wrong word in a phrase, a sentence whose meaning is confused when isolated from its explanatory paragraph. There are lots of examples, as people, words, colors, shapes, behaviors, etc can be "out of context".
