I remember at the end of my very first day of kindergarten they told us dismissal would be at 3:00 pm. I naturally assumed that this had something to do with missiles being fired off, and probably my entire family dying. It was a very frightening concept. I was relieved to find out that dismissal had nothing to do with explosives or my loved ones dying.

Next order of business, noises made by people while they work out. A few years ago I was working out at the Y and there was this really annoying dude wearing swim trunks and flip flops and every time he would complete a repetition of whatever exercise he was doing he would go "tss". I hated this guy. It annoyed the shit out of me, and had he not been so muscly I like to think I would have told him what for. Though probably not.

I had a similar experience today. I was getting my swell on with my 5 lb weights and elastic bands and low intensity, high repetition what have you's, when I heard what I thought was probably the bowels of hell opening up and depositing fiery madness into my ears. A fellow, I'll call him 'man', was counting off his reps, loudly growling out each one as though his stomach was being vacuumed out through his throat. He was doing these crazy exercises that involved parts of your body I didn't even know you were supposed to work out.

We were the only two people in the gym so it got really awkward (for me) when I would be standing there silently doing my little bicep curls and he's over in the corner sodomizing some crazy weight machine that looked like a torture device. Also, he was wearing business socks.

Then, he came really close to me to use the machine that I guess you put your face into, and then push down and it probably works your anus muscle or something. So he was just sitting there, doing his face/anus exercises, screaming out his reps, and I couldn't help it. I had to laugh. It was just preposterous. I would be too embarrassed to make those noises if I was all alone in my room with sound proof walls. He must have been on steroids or something.

You should probably cut the guy some slack. Roid Rage is hardly something to laugh at.

Also, I'd like you to know that the word verification I have to type below my comment is the word "proids". Also, what are those stupid verification things for anyways? Like, a blog terrorist doesnt know how to read AND write? I don't understand.
