fads. Workout fads, clothing fads, etc. It bothers me that sheep enjoy the **** out of them, then in five years they get to look back and go "ZOMG what was I thinking? LULZ" all lighthearted and stuff.

most of them but especially shox.

when i sign up for a site, then they start spamming me with their useless newsletter. i try to unsubscribe, but it then asks me to sign in first and im too lazy / forgot pw so i just don't bother. unsubscribe links from emails should always automatically unsubscribe. no sign in bull****.

this should piss you off.

Seeing the Amanda Knox thread on the front page.

Girls who were uggs thinking that its cute and men like it

This one doesn't piss me off but it makes me laugh. I've told my 76 year old mother I will be memorializing her on the back window one day. Maybe sooner than planned if she doesn't straighten up.

How long has this been going on? In my neighborhood there is a "Pops" Salas 1951-2009 on a dark blue Chevy pickup.

Being memorialized anywhere, outside of having a building named after you or something, is pretty lame

Car window stickers, road signs, tattoos, etc.

what about low dunks? you hate them too?

shox are terrible though but i wouldn't consider those as sneakers. i also don't get why people like air max. apart from the fact they are probably comfortable to walk in. look pretty stupid to me.

I'm going to put this sticker on my back windshield:

'79-'55 Big Al

And that memorial

This may fall into the category of thing that should piss you off but I don't care. I'm pissed off when I go to the gym and cretins don't take the time to put weights away or they put the weights away incorrectly. There is a proper place for each plate to go. This is an example of how NOT to do it:



Notice the branch on the lower left. There is what looks like 2 5# plates on top of 2 25# plates on top of a 35# plate. If you want the 35# plate you need to take off all the other plates. Each weight denomination should be on its own branch. This isn't rocket science but I see it all the time.

I'm going to bring my phone to the gym Friday (another thing I hate: people on their phones at the gym) to take pictures of the more egregious examples and I will report back.

What's the problem? Afraid of a little lifting? Too much work?

mojo56, you should check out the General Gym Observations thread in H&F.

The gym pisses me off. All those germs. Blech.

I bet you don't even lift.

It looks to me like the largest plate on that rack is 25 lbs. The problem is they are mixing the Olympic (large hole) weights with the small curl bar weights, although I can't really see the holes. I wouldn't want to be benching with anything other than weights that have the separately revolving cylinder on each end of the bar, though.

They are all the same style weights, just different sizes. If they had large and small holes they wouldn't sit as uniform as they do.

Yes, people racking their weights all wrong is tilting as ***.

Good catch! You are right and I agree about the mixed up weights.

This is illegal afaik.

The weight racking phenomenon is all about alpha maleness. The biggest guys don't even remove their weights from the bar. They just move on to the next machine.

Then if you are maybe not quite the alpha but are trying to prove it, you take your 45 pound weights off the bar then place them on the 5 pound rack and DARE someone to call you out bro.

It's all alpha bull**** iyam.

This post is pure bull****. The fit guys at the gym are usually the ones that re-rack correctly because we know gym adequate.

Bro, Do you even lift?

Etty kit.

Doesn't know the difference between etiquette and adequate: could be a legit musclehead.

We couldn't be more different.
