The girls especially. Many of them seem like they're mental...

This one day a black guy came in that I'd never seen before. He was using the leg press with fairly heavy weight. He kept going to the bathroom between every set and it sounded like he was gaging/puking in there.

not just women, it's people in general, dudes that are 163 pounds of skinny/fat wearing skin tight Under Armor, tank tops and tiny micro shorts in the middle of winter, 60 year old women showing way too much skin, the mexicans who "train" in packs of 5-6 doing 155 pound smith machine row/shrug/deadlift combos, the headphones, Ipods, attitudes, "energy" drinks, etc., it's all bullshit.

If they don't involve G4P and oiled up men in thongs...I'm not interested.

A old guy was kicked out of my gym for checking out guys. This guys was just plain weird and kinda reminds me of that homosexual from Family Guy. I just remember getting dressed and tieing my shoes on the bench in the dressing room and he would walk around naked and try to get his penis as close to you as possible.

HAHAHAHA

It's so funny you say that.

My old gym was fairly small, and everyone pretty much knew each other. We had these five Mexican guys that trained together. They had terrible form and pretty much just did Cable Crossovers, Rowing Machine, and BB Curls

There was also this Arab guy that told me muscle size wasn't everything and that he was really really strong. I didn't even know how to respond to someone telling me that out of no where. HAHAHAHA

I think gyms are high on the list but I would take a guess that Walmart is probably #1 if not very close to it...

I also think every police department in the world is full of cops with serious mental issues...

It would have been hilarious to witness him getting kicked out. What would they say to him?

Mexicans are pretty hilarious.. Ignoring the dress code, sneaker requirements, and wearing baseball caps and baggy jeans. What's really funny is how they walk with such a strut despite being 145 lbs and 4 feet tall equipped with bad hair styles and beer bellies.

But now I attend my school's gym and not only is it very well equipped, but it's also mostly weirdo, mexican, old people and know-it-all free. Mostly our athletes and students.

65 year old guys who stand around naked talking to each other for half an hour, dudes blow drying their nuts, sitting their naked ass on the fuccking wooden locker room benches, the little 5'2" african janitor who follows people around staring at them relentlessly, etc.

In my old gym it some beedy eyed mexican giving people the stare down while holding his mop like a roman spear.

I stared some jack ass teenager down from my car while he was walking into a store, the place had old automatic doors that swing out and it was stuck open and he walked right into it. I about died laughing, it probably gave him a black eye.

Wildest, huh ? Damn ... talk about putting me on the spot.

I remember one time ( although this incident had happened quite a few times ) walking in on a guy pissing on the sauna rocks ... man, was I fucking pissed ! As you walk into the lockeroom you can see what's going in the sauna through the window ... I guess this #### didn't think that I'd be checking the lockeroom at 2am ...

. Needless to say, he's no longer a member of the gym ( that I know of ... maybe he came back ).

I remember a time sitting at the front desk reading a book ... when I looked up at the clock I noticed a chick spread out on one of those exercise balls ... funny thing was she wasn't wearing any panties. It was a sight to see, too ! You talk about some roast beef curtains !

I remember a time when a big #### ( approx. 6'4" 260 lbs or so ) got his ass handed by a guy that was approx. 5'6" and about 160 lbs soaking wet. He got light up too !

I remember it taking me almost 10 minutes to make a 1 minute shake because I was so fucking high from having smoked weed out in the parking lot with my friend.

Btw, sorry if I'm boring you guys ... I just got so much shit in my head ... it's hard to remember the wildest. I remember breaking up two girls that were going at in the tanner ( right during the fucking day, too ) ... I remember one of my bosses fucking some chick in the tanner !

I'll sleep on the rest guys and share some tomorrow if you guys are interested. More detailed stuff. It's getting rather late now and I got my lady waiting in the bedroom. Talk to you guys later.

the 23 year old still living with mom and dad who was drafted by the Red Sox/Yankees/Royals/Dodgers/Devil rays/Cardinals etc., etc. but didn't go to a big enough college and now is just lifting in case one of the teams calls him.
