Subject: The most rediculous thing I saw/happend at the gym was...

I saw at the gym last night, 2 guys come in together (pretty boys) with Starbucks in their hands, wearing Abercrombie shirts (not proper workout attire) and proceed to the freewieghts (were I was). They then proceeded to stand around some benches and chat with each other. I did not see them actually work out the next 30 minutes while I was there.

1. only water bottles allowed in workout areas. Starbucks iced/frozen drinks do not fall into this category

2. Abercrombie? really?

3. Why not just sit at the tables outside of Starbucks and watch people walk in and out of the gym since you're not working out anyway?

Maybe 'cause you weren't doing your stuff outside Starbucks? Just a guess.

As a result of that thread, I now ask my wife if she wants to help me change a flat. She thinks I'm insane, but I just laugh and laugh.

In a nutshell:

A thread was started by someone who did not know how to change a flat. It evolved into a risque thread. So now "change a tire/flat"=the nasty

Wheww!! Sigh....that was scary. Kinda ruins the joke when you have to expain it.

The 2 funniest things I've seen at the gym lately both involve the bench press....

1) this guy put entirely too much weight on the bar for his strength and didn't put the spring-clips on to keep the plates in place.....on his first rep he was so wobbly-armed he turned the bar and all the weight slid off the side!  lol....the bar became unbalanced and then sure enough...plop...all the weight slid off the other side!  Made a huge noise and everyone in the gym just stared...I think one of the personal trainers came over and smacked him.

2) this guy was just going to town repping the bar and when he did his last rep he really heaved and ended up pushing it up past the pegs, over the top and then dropped it on the floor behind the bench!!!!  It would have landed on his spotter's foot if he'd been using a spotter.

And for some reason I get the feeling you started that thread, or atleast the turn to R rating.

um, did your gaydar go off? based on your descrip, Dr. RuthHollis says they were definitely gay, definitely flirting, and perhaps this was part of some bizarre courtship... I can explain nothing more. Gay boys are a mystery; to me, they are the strangest of species. They like boys. See, I get gay women and straight men. Women rule. I like em too. Straight women I kinda get, because, well, it's not their fault, they were born that way. But gay boys? The final frontier. DO we have any out men on this board? Maybe they could explain....

I sort of "get" gay men, but I'm not going to dare try to speak for them.  And I'm going to scream if this thread elicits any homophobic remarks from any of our leg-shaving spandex-wearing Manly Men.

Yes, my gaydar did go off with flashing rainbow colored lights and loud noises. heh.

I was trying to be as PC as possible with my post so not to start any political b*tch fest. That was not my point by starting this thread, neither was it to be sexual in nature. The point was to just tell some funny stories from the gym! Really. Please don't make this into a big political argument anyone, this is not what this was supposed to be about.

Getting back to the original idea...

When I lived in this apartment complex, I would work out at it's gym most mornings.  There was a lady who came in every day I was there with her 24 oz of OJ and a 24 oz of coffee.  She would hop on the treadmill, turn on some wonderful trash TV (Montel, Ricki Lake or something of the like) and walk at about 2.5 mph until she finished her drinks. Funniest thing I've ever seen at the gym. Really, I think she put in more calories than she burned in that process.

What about the typical guy ala Swatzenager, wearing a sleeveless gold’s gym shirt, throwing weight to the floor back and forward and talking on the cell phone SCREAMING between sets... There is a couple at my gym... It makes my workouts pretty entertaining.

I get gay women too.  As a straight man I can understand who a woman can look at a woman and think, "Wow, she's sexy!"  A straight woman can look at another woman and appreciate the body.  It was made with wonderful curves.       Wonderfully shaped accessories

Now, for a guys body, if you looked at a naked picture of a buff guy, then you have two lumps and a stick.  Not attractive accessories.

And I've been hit on my guys.  My wife jokes that I've been hit on by more guys than she has.  Oh well.

There's a thread waiting to happen.  Stories of getting hit on by the same sex.
