Fine. London was near the top of my list of 'hey that's a non-trivial town why haven't I heard of anyone here there' towns.

Caleb:
You should always hang out and meet new people.

Otherwise you eventually become socially retarded in your late twenties.

I am speaking from experience.

Buy Cranium and convince four other people to join you. Cranium is the best drunk board game that exists in this world, closely followed by Trivial Pursuit.

A guy in my class today asked me to hang out with him and his roomies sometime in the next few weeks. This is kind of freaking me out. I've sat next to this guy for the last few months, and all I know about him is (a) He's a democrat, or at least, he's an Obama supporter (b) He does charity work sometimes, although it could be community service or the like and (c) He drives a truck. He's very clean cut, athletic, probably student government in high school. For whatever reason I'm suspecting he's a christian, an FCA type. He might think me a potential convert (I don't know why I think this, but it seems plausible to me) I don't know what to do. The guy seems nice enough, he doesn't seem like a bro, although the possibility is still there. But I'm being asked to jump into a social situation with a group of strangers. I'm pretty stiff when I'm out with my best friends. I have a feeling of impending doom. Something about this guy is sending off all sorts of red flags in the back of my mind.

The worst that's likely to happen is that you'll have an evening that's kind of a bummer. The best that's likely to happen is that you'll make new friends. If he tries to convert you, just be polite, make it clear that you're happy with your own faith/lack there of, and don't hang out again. It is also possible for clean cut moderate-liberal Christian athletes who drive trucks to just be friendly people who want to hang out. Also: a clean cut, athletic democrat, and you assume it's because he's a Christian? Have you considered that he might be gay (not that that would exclude also being a Christian)?

mooface:
geez, or maybe you should just not make blatant judgments on people and just get to know them first
