Back to the Gym
12.13.05 (10:06 am)   [edit]
Haven't given you guys an update of my observations and experiences at the gym lately...

First of all, there is TIGER GIRL...
I see this person walking toward me (long hallway). First I thought it was a guy - 1 inch buzz-cut hair. Those things in the ears that stretch them - look sort of like spools of thread. Ring thru nose that makes it look like a doorknocker. Hoop thru lower lip. I thought 'he' was wearing a long-sleeve shirt, but I soon realize it's a t-shirt with sleeves cut off. "He" is actually a "she" and has tattoos of tiger stripes all the way down to her wrists. Tiger Girl gets on a piece of equipment next to me - she has that sort of angry-looking demeanor that would kick your ass into next week if you even looked her way. "She" is wearing leggings, but as she is doing the exercise, they ride up a bit, and it turns out she has tiger stripes on her legs too! Oh. My. God. (I wonder if she had fantasies about Tony the Tiger growing up???)This woman really scared me.

Then there was "creepy guy".
The circuit-training area of the gym has like 30 different pieces of equipment. The area was practically empty - maybe 4 people in it including yours truly. This guy, early-50's, kept standing behind me while I was doing the hip abduction exercise (consists of me sitting in chair spreading legs against weights...) When I was done with my first set, I started to get up to let him use it - he said "no, that's okay - you can continue to use it". Ewwwwwwww....

Finally, there's was Mr. Granimal.
Actually pretty-decent looking guy. I'd say late 20's. Talking really loud about how he's training for the Iron Man (riiiiight...) And, (shockingly) he's a groaner too - I felt like I was listening to a porn flick. (Oh yeah! Oh! Oh! Grunt grunt grunt) He's in an orange t-shirt, orange baseball cap, gray shorts and MATCHING ORANGE socks. What came to mind is - no gay man would be caught dead in this ensemble, so did his mother pick out this outfit???

Apparently, you haven't been to the gym's circuit-training area or you would know what I was talking about. ;)

It was just a little too matched - mr. granimal. This is the YMCA, a no-frills sort of gym, not one of those places where you prance around with a thong unitard and tights. Way too much effort went into matching the ensemble.

And Tiger Girl gave off a "Don't fuck with me vibe" - she might have clawed my tiara off. (kidding)

You are right, no gay guy would be caught in that outfit. Only a REALLY COOL guy would wear something as awesome as that! Makes me want to go up and get one of my flannel shirts with the sleeves ripped off.

lol I go to an all women's gym, so i don't encounter the creepy guys. But I do check out the leotards some of these women squeeze themselves into.

Don't forget to wear black socks with that flannel shirt. And I recommend wearing really really oversized shorts with no undies so you flash sausage on the rowing machine.
