Have you tried hitting him?

Seriously though, that is fucking weird. He definitely has no friends and hasn’t had sex in a number of years. I’d struggle not to ask him what the fuck he was doing but no, I agree with Tatsu.

Maybe he’s waiting for you to sit on the other end of the barbell so it’s like a seesaw which reminds him of being with his little sister who unfortunately died a while back.[/quote]

hahah this was hilarous.

I would have kicked him in the face. Recently an old guy got on a piece of equipment I wasn’t done with yet, so I broke his hip and through him in the lap pool to see if he could still swim. My court date is set for April.[/quote]

Were you holding a shoe while you did it?

OP–Don’t sweat it. He was prolly just on tha roidz…

But seriously–it might help to be more vocal at the onset of a situation like that, before it becomes awkward. [/quote]

Hey itchy, I see where you are coming from, but he already made it awkward by sitting on my plates that are loaded on the bar. And really if we are in confronation now, I don’t need to say anything, I want it to be awkward. I will be silent, and I will stare into your eyes until it is very awkward and make you nervous…by that point without being vocal at all, you should get the point that I am making. Which is very simple: You are not welcome here.

I agree that this guy sounds strange, but instead of just staring at him and making the situation awkward, why not just say something? And I don’t mean a confrontation, why not just politely point out to him that he’s in your way?[/quote]

Yes for sure. I will definately tell him next time IF he does it again in a respectable fashion, because that’s the kind of person I am and want to be. I won’t just stare him down like last time. This guy just looked like the type thouggh esp. with body language that he wouldn’t care. I mean he SMIRKED at me when I loaded the plates while he was sitting on it, then got up. That’s just messed up man.
And by the third time I just stared him down, cause frankly you don’t need to be a genius to see whats goin on, and he knew what he was doing.

It’s all extremely pointless in the end, and a bad situation can stem from absolutely nothing…but if he wants it that way, then so be it.

you could take the tactic that is normal…

‘you need something, cause im using those’

or just neutralize it a different way.

stick your hand out
’ how are you, Im so and so’
then bust out the ’ I’m about to do a set, do you mind, thanks’

without any bravado , you have introduced yourself,
given full opportunity for him to roll out without
any further posturing.
I have no time for shit like this- so I am always polite , but make it clear that
they dont really get a choice in how they should behave.

I would of whipped out the Anaconda and measured up with the bitch, tell him and his needle dick to go home.

Lol.

Ahh don’t lie kmc, you know you’d bust out your wrestlin skillz :wink: haha

I really like your approach and will take it, I thought the smile and nod was enough the 2nd time…that’s why I just stared him down the 3rd time, to get the point.

I like that this gives them no choice whatsoever…it is better than my idea to just be enemies and eventually lead to me smashing him.

Just let loose some of those Serbian powers… as my father in law would say. My mother in law is also Serbian… so he has some experience. She can be very fierce, lol.

There is no steroid that can stop a man from being kicked in his atrophied testicles. No exercise thickens the eyelids. And no workout can build muscle on the windpipe.

Just FYI.
