14. I run into "bus stop preachers" all the time.

Either at the stop or on the bus. They talk loudly about "jaysus" and how "blessed" they are before finding some excuse to start approaching the other passengers. They usually start with small talk about the weather or ask for directions but the "god" pitch is never far behind.

My personal favorite is the well-dressed middle aged guy carrying his bible who always manages to target the most attractive young women he can find. I'm sure he is just trying to fill them with the holy spirit, or something like that.
