Smoking AT the Gym?

Now that I know you’re from Boston ignore my post on the first page.[/quote]

i doubt she’s from boston or she would’ve done this right off the bat, solved this this little issue, and been done with it rather allowing this frothy brew-ha-ha. instead she seems to be hoping that gym- going roller-disco smoker-grl by some odd chance will read this forum and get the message. besides all that if you’re really “from” boston you don’t leave.

What I can’t truly fathom is the narcissism that Tek shows by thinking anyone gives two shits about people smoking outside her gym.

At least the balls story had some humor to it.

The only entertainment coming from this is shock and awe of the “My life is so important that I need to share every little thing that inconveniences it with the masses.”

Stop being an attention whore and just tell the people smoking to move when your coming out the door.

Or if you can’t muster the “balls” to do that tell a gym manager to tell them to move.

Don’t forget kids in grocery stores!

So, now Tek hates children in grocery stores,or is it children in general. There is an older retired gentleman that hands out dollar coins to kids in the grocery store that I get my eggs, milk, etc. (small plug) from. The kids’ faces really light up.

Actions like this seem to be such a rarity in the inner city. Tek, I think you need to learn to hand out a little compassion and understanding of your own. Especially towards children. Hell, they’re the future. [/quote]

I don’t HATE kids. I simply have no patience for people that choose not to control them and allow them to wail incessantly in public.

Perhaps if you had bothered to actually read this thread BEFORE jumping in and adding your worthless two cents, you would know that the staff had already been approached. It seems you’re the real attention whore since you’re busting at the seams to post your missive without knowing all of the facts.

besides all that if you’re really “from” boston you don’t leave.

You do if you get a good job offer. I suppose since Burger King is in most major cities you don’t feel the need to leave.

Let me guess, you probably live in Brockton and say you’re “from Boston”.
What-ev-ah.

No one gives a shit, and yet you felt the need to post…if I’m such a tool, go on to the next thread, dude.

I guess the first part of Mens sana in corpore sano is not for you…

And YOU have a sound mind? Highly unlikely…go have another smoke, you have free healthcare in Canada don’t you? I guess you can keep on puffing until you’re dead.

I don’t smoke. Never did, never will.

But maybe you should. A lot of smokers claim it helps them calm down.

That or add some Midols to your supplements.

You’re definitely being whinier and more premenstrual on this thread than she is taking such a strong stand on this when it really has nothing to do with you.

I agree. I don’t understand the hate for tekgrl. Having to walk through smokers huddling in front of the door sucks.[/quote]

It especially sucks when you have long hair and it lingers on it all day…

I don’t plan on going soft anytime soon:-) I’ve already had a few “interactions” since I got here…I was going to give it up for Lent:-)

FYI: Revere is a different accent than Boston (My husband is from Revere).
Also, not everyone from Boston has the stereotypical accent portrayed on “Fever Pitch”.
I guess you’re too ashamed to post where your from-your profile is blank.

Allergies are just a weakness of the mind. Why are you choosing to be allergic to smoke?

(Yes I’m just joking)

smartass:-)
I’m really only allergic to ignorant people…this thread has a few of them:-)

Tekgrl,
I don’t know you well but here’s what I think after reading through this thread:

You may not be the strongest or the fastest, but you truly are the QUICKEST TO VIOLENCE!

I’m gald you moved out of Vegas, I wouldn’t want to run into you at the gym. (kidding)

My wife’s tough and I think that’s very fucking hot. You rock, tekgrl!

I may come from Revere, which is the armpit of the Northshore, but Brockton is Massachusett’s colon. Marvin H. is not even from Brockton, his trainers with the bad hair helmets are. You’re very proud of Brockton, you must be one of those West Brockton guys that refuse to rent to my black friends. Great legacy, or are you a liberal from STOUGHTON who can still walk to the West Gate Mall?

At a fucking gym??

sigh, so annoying, some people.

i like giving cold stares, i’d probably do that.

Brockton? BROCKTON!!! The Masshole? I don’t think so…all crappy cities/towns of my blessed home state bow to Springfield, I’m afraid.

You too? Small world.

Yes, it sucks. It’s nasty. But it’s one of life’s minor annoyances - hardly fatal or life-threatening. I’m sure you do equally annoying things.

Deal with it.
