That annoying christian.

Okay so you and your friends are all standing around and talking about sports, girls, cars, whatever(I actually like to talk about books I am reading), and a person that you all know comes up to join the conversation. You know this person's "persuasion" but you don't snub them instead waiting for them to "contribute". So as soon as one of your friends finishes a funny story (that he has edited to accommodate the newcomer) The newcomer sees his chance and chimes in. He starts off fine but sure enough, he turns the story into a sermon.
Now in high school, we were just rude and turned our back on these people, but when you grow up and you are in a nonprivate impromptu conversation with neighbors that isn't an option. Pretty soon wives and girlfriends complete with kids in tow join in and the "evangelical' that has just derailed what was an enjoyable conversation turns to his wife and compels her to add to the christian story.
I don't understand these people. They live in a fucking bubble. They are boring, uneducated, and completely unaware of the world around them.
For example one of my neighbor's was commenting on how his 7-year-old has read every Harry Potter book. The "church goer" chimes in with "Oh you should never allow your children to read Harry Potter." Where do you go from there? Do you lambast the asshole for his unrealistic censorship or tell him that he can raise his own kids but to leave everyone else's alone or do you do what I did and just say "Hmmm".
Fucking christians don't know how to act in public. They do nothing but talk about jesus. They don't even know what the fuck they are talking about. It's like they are trying very hard,...TOO FUCKING HARD to mainstream jesus.
Everyone has an annoying christian. All christians are annoying!
