Don't block the F'en mirror!

[FknKnuckleHd]

I was at the gym yesterday and I'm doing cable pull downs and I was using the mirror which was about 20ft away and this focken jackass walks directly in front of me, blocks the mirror and starts doing an exercise. I workout at my local Gold's Gym so the place is fairly big and it was just he and I in that particular area. Like most when I train I use the mirrors to keep good form and lets face it most of us are vane mf's anyway. I can't take it when these dickheads pay no attention to anybody else but themselves. I told the guy to get the fuck outa my way and he just about started crying. But what should I have done and this has happened several times, never the same person twice and its getting to the point where I'm having a hard time controlling myself . I know it was the wrong way to handle the situation. I know these skinny non-form having too much weight doin assholes are thinking "roid rage" but my test levels have nothing to do with it. It has everything to do with jerks that have never heard of gym courtesy, re-rack your weights, don't stare at the ladies crotches when they're doing the leg spread machine(?)(unless she's not wearing panties)wipe your sweat stain off the bench, don't attempt to ask me a question in the middle of a set and DON'T BLOCK THE F'en MIRROR WHEN I AM USING IT! Am I reaching when I say the lazy shit behind the counter signing up new members should make that part of his/her speech for newbie's? Your opinions are always appreciated!
Thanks for letting me share and with that I'll keep coming back!

you could have asked nicely.

did you really use the F-word?

You were 20 feet away and pissed that someone was in your way? GMAFB Most people are barely aware of what's occuring within 8 feet of them let alone 20 feet away. If you'd have said it to me that way I'd have told you to fuck off and die and likely made it a point after that to be in your way. Now, if you'd said something nicely, since I likely had no clue I was in your way, I'd have not only moved, but went out of my way to watch more closely the next time.

Is that a joke?

I was squatting a few months ago...the mirror couldn't have been 6 feet in front of me...about 2 feet in front of the rack. When I'm IN THE MIDDLE OF MY SET, some nut job stands in front of me, looking at me, and reaches around the rack to grab some weight. Not behind me, RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME WHILE I'M DOING MY SET. I flipped!

"ARE YOU A FUCKING IDIOT? DO YOU NOT SEE ME SQUATTING RIGHT HERE? IF I COULD THROW THIS WEIGHT AT YOU I WOULD! GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME BEFORE I CHOKE THE LIFE RIGHT OUT OF YOUR DUMB ASS!"


So yes, I think it's a legit complaint.

You were prolly nicer about it than I was.

20 feet. LMAO! I get mad when people are in the locker room at the same time as me. I mean, give me a fucking break! Can't a man have some privacy! Rude mutherfuckers...

6ft is a whole different deal than 20 ft is.

That's you and this is me.
I said it was only he and I in the area and 40ft of mirror he chose to stand in the worse possible place.
Buddy if he/you told me to fuck off in or out of the gym I'd split your shit wide the fuck open and I hate saying stupid shit like this through a computer because it opens a can of worms that can't be shut. But, if you ever hear someone at a gym tell a person to get the F out of their way because that persons doing some rude shit, even if its not directed at you tell that guy to "fuck off" and if there is a God in this world may that guy be me! Enough said go back to your needle point.

Oh how cute. And you still said the stupid shit over a computer. Then completely missed the point that there's a highly significant possibility that the guy had NO clue he was in your way. And being the bright boy you are, it didn't occur to you that 20 feet is a damn long circumfrance of distance for anyone to pay attention to. And even more splendidly you demonstrate the bullshit bully mentality and attitude that gives our sport a bad name. Congrats for fulfilling the sterotype. I cherish meeting bad boys like you in the gym or out. It completely makes my day.

I thought that was the point he was making?
That of all the places this guy could have stood, it was in front of him?
And that people need to be more cognizant of whats happening around them instead of being in their own little world?

Ok, and how many people are worried about what's occuring 20 feet away from them? And how many people are going to DELIBERATELY put themselves in FRONT of someone to block their view? Most people are lucky to pay attention to what's occuring just beyond arms reach of themselves.
