My Top 5 Gym Pet-Peeves:

5. Couples or groups talking, laughing, enjoying a conversation. SHUT UP! I don't care about your kids. I don't care about your crush. Get it going or get out!

4. Women thoroughly, diligently cleaning equipment before exercising. Let's be honest ladies. If you put this much effort into your exercise, you wouldn't need to be here tonight. And, you almost never clean after yourselves! WTF?

3. Staff cleaning, maintaining, or repairing machines while the gym's at its fullest. C'mon, do it when there's no one waiting in line. Yes I know the machines aren't available anyway, but seeing you taking your time "working" on them is very annoying, not to mention distracting! Ugh.

2. People warming up for a long period of time before doing any actual exercise. Enough already! Get on with it! I don't want to see you on that machine stretching or posturing or reading instructions or pressing buttons for more than 30 seconds. If you are, you're a moron! Get the F out!

1. Men wearing long-sleeve sweatshirts with matching pants, or head-to-toe garbage bag inspired ensemble while exercising. I could bet on it that you would almost definitely stink. You're inconsiderate. You're gross. You need to invest in t-shirts and some good deodorant. You. Are. Wet. Walking. Pungent. Socks. That's right! You know what you smell like! Why are you torturing everyone around you? Get the F out!
