So I'm at the gym this morning, and strike up casual conversation with a nicely muscled , fairly handsome fella. We're gettin' in to it, talking about motivation to work-out, when out of the blue, he quotes Bible paragraph and verse, and says: " Through Christ, I get my strength "
I immediately lost my mental hard-on , nodded, and ended the talk right then and there, walking away . Bleh ... barf.
Anyone else have a similar moment, when you thought you were meshing well, and then "poof" - god invaded !

One time at the tire shop a fellow and I got to talking about the recent rain. Out of the blue he says" forty days and forty nights." I was completely dumbfounded out of the conversation, it only took a second until I realized he was completely serious!

The instant someone speaks religion, I block, delete, defriend, etc them. If they are there in person I remember something I have to do, and LEAVE.
This happened to me while eating lunch with some Filipino friends here in Songkhla, Thailand..now EX friends. I complained about Trump and the religious alt-right and they actually began lecturing me and telling me they were Christians, and that they wouldn't allow me to speak against Christianity.
The irony? The girl lecturing me was the lover of the transmale sitting next to me.
They were mostly LGBTQ and yet unaware that their alternate lifestyles would get them attacked in any US Christian community.
I stood up and left, and I want nothing further to do with them.

"Mental hard-on" is hilarious! Love your sense of humor.
