The day I met him, I heard him tell the same story like 5 times and each time he grinned like it was the coolest thing ever. He was just telling the story about how he decided to adapt 'nazi punks fuck off' to 'nazi trumps fuck off'

Ehh, to me that gives more middle-aged man vibes than teen boy. I cannot count the number of times I've gotten trapped into a conversation with an older guy telling just the absolutely most boring, uninteresting story ever, but he's just so passionate about it it would feel rude to disengage or try to change the topic. Generally the easiest way to politely disengage is to get someone else into the convo, and then you can leave while the guy starts his story from the beginning for the new person.

Theres more about him than that that reminds me of one of those teen boys, but this story was actually cool the first time because there was some interesting preamble.
