Why don’t you just give the guy who made the video the benefit of the doubt and see that yes, it’s retarded. No need to be one of those college-types who argues every point and defends things that are stupid just to look open minded.

And again, I’m asking a question, to the guy that took the picture, or anybody else… If in this situation you actually needed THAT machine, would you tell the guy to bug off, or would you go find something else to do?

I work at a gym currently and yesterday while cleaning the family locker room, there was a bloody tampon on the wall. I guess some woman just got roid rage and ripped it out and decided to throw it on the wall?
I’ve also seen shit in the showers, pubes (pile of it in the showers), people shaving in the steamroom/sauna, old guys who feel the need to have a conversation with me as I’m picking up the towels to be washed while they are ass-naked, dip spit in the corners of the hallway, toilet seats that look like someone just decided to have explosive diaherra all over them, and had a member complain about a guy pissing in the steam room drain (said he didn’t feel like getting out and having the steam room have no steam in it).
Needless to say, people are just dirty.[/quote]
I think some people just go to the gym to do whatever they wouldn’t do in their own shower/bathroom.
Case in point is this one old guy who dyes his hair probably once a month. Srsly. I’ve seen him do once or twice where he walks around butt nekkid in the locker room for a good hour with these nasty chemicals in his hair plus a plastic hat. He then proceeds to rinse at the sink making it look like someone ax murdered a 500 lb. slug. Nasty, nasty, nasty. After he leaves, that sink is a hazmat zone for the rest of the day. Every month. yip… No question when he’s been there.

Why don’t they revoke his membership?[/quote]
It’s a university gym. There is no membership per se to revoke. You pay a flat yearly fee and have the run of the place. Besides, almost the only people that work there during the day are completely clueless hourly students who absolutely do not give a shit what happens. I’ll bet the custodial staff wants to murder the guy, but they come in after hours. Sure I could go raise a stink about it, but why? I’d have to drag some student down to see this and then I’d be the one filling out complaint forms and driving the whole process. If nobody gives a damn, it’s just easier to sidestep his mess and keep going.
I have great stories…I used to work at a gym during the mid-late 80’s. CRAZY shxt would go on. One of my favorite stories involved the steam room. One day I walk in and it looks like a slaughterhouse, blood all over the floor trickling into a drain. Standing in the corner is a guy “trying” to shave his face with an old nasty razor. No shaving cream…just steam. Meanwhile people are stepping through the blood stream and not even knowing it cuz it was hard to see through the steam. And this was right about the time AIDS became a household word.

No, the top gym crime is the naked old guy who used to lean in to the counter while shaving his face at the gym I used to train at. Since when is resting your junk on the sink an acceptable practice?[/quote]
You didn’t happen to go to ohio University by chance? I think there was a team of thsoe guys. Ball washers we called them. These guys would wash their junk in the sink and read the newspaper in the buff.

Read much? I’m not defending the guy’s choice of exercise dummy, he could be doing finger pushups for all I care as long as there’s another open leg press right next to him. My point is, who cares what every dipshit is doing in the gym as long as they are not getting in your way.
And again, I’m asking a question, to the guy that took the picture, or anybody else… If in this situation you actually needed THAT machine, would you tell the guy to bug off, or would you go find something else to do?
And why the fuck would I give anybody the “benefit of the doubt” anyway? Then I’d have to give it to you too, another retard.[/quote]
I’m a retard but…but …you’re from New Jersey!

I will always remember this black guy who would always stand naked in front of the mirror and lather up his entire body with lotion. I mean, it was a lot of lotion! We aren’t talking like a dime sized amount, he would literally fill his entire palm with it and just start rubbing down his body. On top of that he would always whistle some random tune. It was pretty creepy.[/quote]
Just a heads up, I am betting the majority of the black population does that to a degree. I can’t avoid lotion when it is cool to cold outside. White people can’t see when their skin gets dry like we can. I turn white if I don’t use lotion…and we can’t have that. I just don’t stand there naked and do it in public…no matter how many offers I get.[/quote]
Prof,
You should occasionally skip the lotion and take advantage of your whiteness so you can get some of the free shit and special treatment we white people give each other when there are no minorities around.

LOL, one of my 1st friends in college believed this happened his entire childhood where he grew up in Harlem. He swore white people were giving each other discounts and free shit when black people weren’t around. One time at the college pizzeria my white roomate went up to get a refill on his drink and the owner didn’t charge him. (they usually charged a small fee). My black friend(now visually agitated) downed his pepsi in 2 gulps, went up and said “I want a free refill just like he got”. I don’t even think he was thirsty at that point haha.
