1. While running on the treadmill, checking out that hot girl over
there. Tripping on the treadmill and flying off in a heap. Dying.

Nothing wrong with that...except for the dieing part.

more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day
the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the
White House will be adorned by a downright moron."

but George W. Bush has managed to overcome that presumption."

I HATE IT WHEN:

1) People feel the need to drag dumbells away to faraway obscure
corners of the gym and NOT bring them back tothe racks when done.
2) You can only find 1 dumbell for the weight you need, probably
because some A$$h0L3 from #1 didn't return the other one. Then you have
to jump up to a much heavier weight than you wanted.
3) People don't wear deodorant.
4) People are d!#*heads about spotting you. If you don't wanna spot
someone just say so, don't go on a rant and rave out loud about your
discontent at being asked such a request. This ties in to #5..
5) People think their [censored] don't stink. No you are not god. Get over
it. I'm not gonna leave the machine just cause you showed up.
6) People stand around not doing anything. Get out of my way.

There's plenty more....good topic I'll keep them coming if I think of
any.

I'm like Steve F* in that my sweat practically doesn't smell. I've
been told so by, uhm, ... friends. My theory is that we developed that
as an adaptation over many centuries, so that other Eastern European
brothers couldn't sniff us out the basements during pogroms.

He'd understand as long as we don't bring various cranial-spandrelian
(mis) measurements of men into that. An why would I? I'd term it all
in the language of preadaptations to 21 century deadly
mosquitoes. They do spare me too.

That reminds of when I was doing good mornings. I had to fart, but I figured
I could do my GM's then go cut it in the locker room as I changed. As I was
straining to do my last rep, a squeaker came out. I hurried and racked the
weight and looked around obscurely as I was unloading the bar. There was
this very good looking woman behind me on the leg extension machine. I
hurried back to the locker room, traveling behind any equipment I could. As
I was leaving, I stopped at the front desk to ask the manager a question,
and sure as [censored] the same lady stopped at the desk. That was the most
embarrassing moment I have been in.
