LOL....couple things:

1) I fully admit I'm generally annoyed by people and things more so than most. I'm very perceptive and, with that, I consider that more of a curse than anything. I'd love to walk around not noticing every little thing, believe me. As they say, ignorance is bliss.

2) If a grown man snapped me with a wet towel, someone I do not know, just totally randomly in the locker room or out at a gym, I'm not being a keyboard tough guy here........he'd get smacked. Or, at a minimum, I'd get the gym involved and have him thrown out. Not sure if you've ever actually had that happen but a perfectly timed snap can feel like someone stabbed you.

Thanks for your input! You sound equally warm and fuzzy!

Thank you and likewise!

Correct, this is a thread to vent. If you don't like to hear people vent about annoying people, this prooooooobably isn't the best thread to read through, just a thought.

A couple of days ago there was a lady in our gym who SANG through most of her workout- apparently she was listening to music through her earbuds and singing along. I'll have to admit it was cheerful music and she had a nice voice and DID wear the required mask, but really? It just seemed a little invasive.

The dude who comes in every day and works out with jeans on. Cardio too.

The "bro" who wears a ski hat (we're in Florida, mind you) delicately placed on the back of his head, just enough so that it hangs off his head but not enough to where it will fall off. I suspect he spends 5 mins every a.m. in the mirror trying to get it juuuuuust right, then probably clips it to his hair. I want to "accidentally" knock it off one of these days.

Personally, if I'm nude I'm doing my best to get covered up not for my sake, but for everyone else's benefit.

There's always a few in every gym, isn't there? We have a guy who will wear cologne while working out (you can smell him from the other side of the room), he goes in and showers and then re-applies another half-bottle before he leaves. There have been times where he's left and 30 minutes later I walk in there and can still smell his Drakkar or whatever cheap cologne he's dousing himself with.

OMG cologne guy was working out next to me. I'm not kidding-we are 6 feet apart and it just consumes me. I think I'm going to have to say something to him. It's extremely annoying.

There’s a super annoying guy who is always dancing to whatever music is on his headphones, constantly flexing in front of the mirror, taking a selfie every two minutes, and using 2-3 areas at once to the exclusion of everyone else. And he’s not in that great of shape to explain the self-absorption.

We have a medium sized gym at work. There are like 3 guys that think the chairs in the shower room are to store their gear vs used for sitting. There are lockers and hooks but they always leave their gym bags on the chairs all day. Well, until I move them.
