To the man on the cardio level of a downtown gym wearing inappropriately short shorts on Monday around 2pm…
Dude, seriously, nobody wants to see that. You’re a young, good-looking guy, but those shorts riding up your thighs are ruining it. It’s not a fashion show, but please, just put on some pants. —Treadmill #1

eew eew yucky poo 🙂
didn’t like the shape of his dick, o.p.?
He/She probably thought he was smuggling grapes
Perhaps Lemmiwinks was nearing the end of his quest.
*Jesus!, Jesus Christ*
Hope he isn’t shedding any bag hair on the machines.
Put the mouse in the house junior.
If one slips out the side, take a minute to adjust.
everyone will be better off for it.
The gym in question is quite popular with gay men, thus that explains the hot short shorts.
HAHAHAHAAHAHAHA
TTFN…I gagged at that one. Thanks
Saying it isn’t a fashion show isn’t really true, though, is it? I don’t go to gyms but I’ve heard the stories about how these chicks get dressed up for a workout.
They’re also the ones, Cranky, who stay on the treadmill for like 5 minutes on 2.5 and no incline because they don’t want to break out a sweat. Obviously, they’re not there to work out.
Given the girth of my ass these days (due to some unfortunate stuffing of one’s unemployed face this summer) I’m sure someone’s going to write a gym bitch about me because I really don’t give a shit what I look like at the gym these days. I’m just happy I’m back working out regularly and not eating like crap, and sure my gym pants might be a little tight at the moment and sure I got a little bit of “roll” hanging over the waist that’s accentuated by the tighter tank top, but goddamnit, I’m not there to impress anyone, I’m there to lose the extra ‘padding’ I acquired over the past summer.
But at least my boobs are huge these days 😛 Guess that’s one plus?
I’ve heard of chicks applying additional foundation to their faces in between sets and circuits. And especially right before going on the treadmills. They tend to think that foundation is different and not going to make their faces break out in shit – then, low and behold, they break out in shit. The point of working out is to let your face and pores breathe, not to clog them with powders and creams with a coating of sweat.
… NGF would you really want to see them without the foundation? Some ladies, usually the ones applying mounds of make up are real rough.
PK so what if you have a few rolls, rolls are different than like ass cheek in full view. If your rolls are covered whatever, same goes for the bum cheek.
At least you go to the gym …
At a gym I don’t care what you look like. But I do hear your comment though.
Maybe after your sweaty face is washed and dried then put on some foundation.
Sadly, if those ladies laid off putting foundation on on a regular basis and invested that money into a good skin care system their skin would look a whole lot healthier.
I use clinique’s three step system. 80 bucks for the whole thing, but it lasts me for more than six months (the cleanser lasts that long, the toner about 8 months and the moisturizer a bit longer) so it really isn’t that expensive in the long run and I hardly ever have to wear foundation like I used to. Now when I wear foundation my skin feels icky. The MOST I’ll use is MAC mineral powder or clinique’s almost make up.
Sometimes I just want to tell these girls that the more foundation they put on, the shittier their skin looks and IS. Most foundations are so bad for your skin it’s unreal. And on bad skin it just looks cakey and nasty. *sigh* but I digress.
Anyway, thanks for the comment, Donkey. I’ve got about 30lbs to go before January and then we’ll see how “baked good-like” I look then and take it from there. The gym sucks, but so does wearing spanx because your all your clothes are too tight 😛
