Rust Evangelism 

The practice where Rust developers (aka evangelists) and cult followers harass other developers, code maintainers, and open source communities in order to get them to submit to the borrow checker and rewrite everything in Rust. They're known to cite Stackoverflow surveys that Rust is so loved, and that memory safety is free in Rust.
You know, Rust Evangelists proposed that Linux be rewritten in Rust.
Man, the amount of Rust Evangelism on Hacker News is just insane.

My aunt sent Billy Graham some money once, and after that, his harassment specialists pestered her for more money every month until she changed her number. She never did that again!

evangelism 

The American Christian Al-Qaeda
Believe that those who dont recognize god are sinners and are automatically dammed to hell.
Don't believe in judgment of morals or deeds only on how close minded you are (the more the better)
Also are afraid to question anything they dont understand simply convince themselves that god wants it like that
Many are closet homosexuals and pedophiles as well as meth heads and white trash

Although there is the occasional right minded evangelist (jimmy carter) these are exceptions to the rules and come few and far between
"Dude my dad made me join this crazy cult"
"Sweet, which one"
"CHRISTIANITY!!!!!!!!!"
"Which kind"
"EVANGELISM!!!!"
"That sucks, good luck bro"

evangelism 

A group of crazy Christians who believe that if you speak tongues, you're speaking "the words of the Lord!!" and faking seizers means you're embracing the holy spirit.

They are basically misled, ill-informed, cult-like religious freaks who dedicated their lives to evangelism.

They can be easily associated with American White Trash, though many other types of Americans participate, however it is seemingly predominately White Trash.
Tommy believes in evangelism. Tommy is insane and brainwashed. Poor Tommy.

ecovangelist 

Evangelists spread the word of God; ecovangelists spread the word of Al Gore. They can be just as annoying, but unlike the evangelists, they don't want the world to end.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
