You might have a small problem with road rage.

Workout related ones:
People who grunt while lifting weights.
People who stand on the treadmill with their feet spread, not running on it, while the thing goes at full speed... then they jump on it and sprint for like five seconds... then stop again.
People who do "super sets" at more than two stations... unless we're the only two people in the gym.
People who turn on the lights in the yoga studio when I'm in there without asking first.
People who hover by me if they want to use a bench or something. Be patient. Let me finish. Go walk on the treadmill or something.
People who don't rerack their weights.
People who don't clean off the equipment when done.
People who try to jump into a station I'm using when I leave my stuff there and walk five feet to get a drink at the water fountain. Only had this happen once. Some clueless woman. Understandable, BUT PAY ****ING ATTENTION
Anyone who uses a station for an unintended purpose... e.g. calf raises on the supports of another machine.
People who leave their stuff on a station they don't intend on using just because they want to keep their stuff close by and off the floor.
Anyone watching FOX News on the TV's at the various aerobic equipment (mostly old people).
People who talk (beyond the normal amount of time for short small talk) while at the gym... whether to other people or on a cell phone.
People who talk on a cell phone... and don't make it brief. (The worst was this guy using a bluetooth who did a 45 minute workout, going from station to station, yapping on the goddamn phone... also, he was speaking a foreign language... that made it twice as bad... it's one thing to hear a conversation and not hear the other end of it, it's another to do so when i can't even understand what the **** he is saying)
People who count their reps out loud.
People who smell bad or are wearing smelly ass workout clothes.
Douchebags dressed up in their douchebag outfits... the beats by dre headphones, maybe wearing a hat with a straight brim, tilted slightly at an angle... maybe carrying with them a workout shake.
Yeah, anyone who drinks a workout shake.
The occasional random non-member who tries to get in through the member entrance... perhaps waving at me or knocking on the door for me to open it. Sorry. No.
The occasional idiot who comes to talk to the owner, trying to get a free day's workout as a "trial" knowing full well they are only there to try and get a free work out for the day.To us, it is the BEAST.Comment

Yes. I try to limit my driving because of this. I love driving. I hate traffic. And by traffic, I mean every other single person on the road... pedestrians and cyclists included.Originally posted by Kidicious View Post
Also, **** cyclists. You know who rides a bike? Children. Take the ****ing spandex bull**** off. You aren't Lance Armstrong

I should state that cyclists are okay in cities where there are designated bike lanes. I'm talking more in the suburbs. I get it, the suburbs aren't often bike friendly. That sucks. That's also not my problem. Get the **** off the road.To us, it is the BEAST.Comment

You have no idea. I generally only react to other aggressive drivers, boxing them in, brake checking, swerve into their lane if they try to pass me and cut me off... that sort of thing. If someone wants to get out of the car and get some, I'm game for that too. I don't have many of these encounters... maybe one every two or three years.Originally posted by Hauldren Collider View Post
Probably the worst was when I delivered pizzas years ago. Some dip**** came up on me real fast... and I drive fast anyways, so that's totally uncalled for. I brake checked him hardcore. He tried passing me on a double yellow line road. I raced him. Swerved a few times almost ran him off the road. Finally, I got to my turn, I chucked some hard metal tool at his car... nailed it good. He turned to follow me. He hit my car trying to run me off the road. We weren't going fast at this point. I got out with a tire iron in hand. Started banging on his vehicle. He sped off. I threw it. Missed. Got in the car, followed him. Called the cops. He must've too. I followed him and we ended up at the station. Each told our sides of the story. Both got a summons to court. Judge ruled in my favor (there wasn't any evidence that I did anything wrong to begin with). His insurance paid to repair my car. I got a $75 ticket for going ape**** on his car with the tire iron. He had all sorts of stuff... reckless driving, etc. He got reamed.
Moral of the story... DONT **** WITH ME

Some people have to ride their bike to work because they are poor.

That is understandable. My primary concern is with middle aged suburbanites who do it as a leisure activity.To us, it is the BEAST.Comment

Oh, add to the list, joggers who run in the street when there is a perfectly good sidewalk. If your knees are so bad that they can't take the pounding on the concrete, you shouldn't be running. If your strides need to be so perfect that you need the more even surface of the street, you shouldn't be running.To us, it is the BEAST.Comment

Fat people should die in a fire. They walk slow and take up too much space. That is all. If anything else comes to me I'll update periodically.Comment

People who use selfie-sticks in crowded places. At least, it should be legal to anally violate them with their own selfie-stick...There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.Comment
