Oh damn. Should I not ask if I can touch their sexy guns??

Hard to deny that you've got a spare tire when it's bouncing and jiggling right in front of you.

I do this. Shut up. I am working out in the privacy of my own pseudo-bedroom/office/it really is just a large closet.

Except the ones that make a certain body part look larger. I'm sure you weren't talking about those mirrors.

Haha this is awesome. There is this little dude at my gym and his back is like broken in half by polio or whatever but he's still in excellent physical shape but walks bent over. Well he is about breast level to me and most chicks. He will flit around like the goddamn polio fairy saying kitschy motivational phrases at our breasts. It's mostly only uncomfortable because I want to laugh at him so bad but without hurting his feelings. When he's covered in sweat though his motivational @ breast moments can be quite terrifying.

I don't know. I switched to a new gym with a pool for rehab on my ankle and there are a bunch of meatheads there. I feel intimidated to even go lift weights because they're always staring creepily at themselves in the mirror and taking up so much SPACE.

I actually prefer the guys that stare creepily into the mirror over guys who will stare creepily at me while I work out.

Also to add to this communal gym rant, can I just say one thing? If you wear neon clothing or racing jerseys to the gym you are a fucking douchebag. Wear neutral colors for the LOVE OF CHRIST. We're all trying hard to focus on something in here and I really didn't intend for it to be your skin-tight, neon peach bicycle shorts.

I use funhouse mirrors to look at my wee-wee.
