Me.... I would try to give him hint like you did and if he doesn't budge, try telling him in a sweet and cool way; so change, then i will straight away tell him on his face that "hey you... can you keep your mouth shut??? i can't hear such nonsense anymore.... Go and tell this to some one who is really interested in it...". You have a yet simpler option.... tell him this page's url and tell him to read this discussion... he will surely shut his mouth up... ha ha....

Tell him to mind his own business or you wont talk to him anymore, never ever.
