preaching to the choir

Preaching to the choir means you are trying to make believers out of people who already believe, or convince people who are already convinced.

Preaching to the Choir

Spending time trying to convince people who are already behind you.
HR won't hire this guy. They want someone who can "hit the ground running". They must be waiting on a "purple unicorn". I apologize, I'm "preaching to the choir". (LOL. That was 3 metaphors in one explanation. I recommend using Urban Dictionary to look of the other two metaphors)

Preaching Wombat

The act of two homosexual men rubbing their nipples on one another, one of the males (1) then proceeds to drop plants on the ground. While the second male (2) eats the plants from the ground, taking the bait, the other male (1) brutally rapes him. Before ejaculation, the two finish off by praying to their god.
Ossian and Isak performed the Preaching Wombat yesterday! Ossian took the bait. The ambulance arrived shortly after it ended.

Preaching Sheik

Someone who goes around preaching to the unseen crowd. They can be found in quiet places, or if they are bold, in public, speaking to those who are not there, or to those who are hidden. Most preaching sheiks are borderline or full blown schizophrenics, though are not always crazy, as they appear to be.

Preaching sheiks give entertaining speeches and acts to the spirit world which watches them constantly. This may also be their way of praying to God in a very different style and manner.
if you happen to witness a preaching sheik in action, whether by hearing them preach or watching them put on a show to what appears to be nobody, keep in mind that you might be just the audience they are looking for.
Though alcohol and/or drugs may be involved in the sheik's sermon, they can do it completely sober. They simply choose to exercise their ability to talk outloud when and where they feel comfortable.
Guy#1: Did you see that dude drink a six pack all alone as he talked to himself for like an hour?

Guy#2: Lol, he didn't just talk bro, he danced and laughed at some pretty funny shit. By the way he was talking to whoever might be listening, he's a preaching sheik, not a nutcase.
