In an earlier post, I described some of the stereotypes one has the misfortune of encountering in the locker room. A while back I had the dubious pleasure of discovering a hybrid betwen the Naked shaving guy and the Really creepy naked old guy. Several times I've walked by this 50+ dude who insists on using the locker room hair dryer whilst standing buck nekkid in front of the mirror. I didn't really pay much attention to it, besides mentally categorizing him as a card-carrying member of the weirdo society.
Now; this was based on the assumption that he uses the hair dryer to dry and shape his hair after showering. Sadly, this assumption - based on observing this stage of his behavior a number of times - turned out to be false. Dude stands buck nekkid with the hair dryer because dude doesn't bring a towel. And he dries everything using the locker room hair dryer.
Yes; everything. He lifts stuff up and does other unmentionable things in order to dry the entire body.
Damn - people are freaks, I tells ya!

Anders was saying earlier that he enjoyed reading your stories and reflections from the gym. He's right, your gym stories are priceless. And the naked old guy who has a thing for hot air takes the cake :)
ReplyDeleteIt's way better to hear/read about them than to experience these people - trust me on that.

ReplyDeleteI'm sure it is. And I'm sure I wouldn't be so amused if I experienced it myself. But I still enjoy hearing/reading it from you/on your bog. 'Cause you make it sound funny. Hope you don't have to see it every day...
by bog I mean blog of course :)
ReplyDeleteHope you don't have to see it every day...
ReplyDeleteNaaaahh...just four days a week
Where's teh french guy?
ReplyDeleteHis plane got delayed and he's not happy about it. Get ready to hear him whine about being a loser tomorrow during coffe break. I'm sure he misses you too :(
ReplyDeleteDelayed from where? Oslo or from that unholy place?
ReplyDelete...in other words; is he comin' home tonight, or be he f*cked?
Well, his first flight in Paris got delayed and without the delay he would have only had 50 minutes to catch the second flight in Oslo. So he might have to spend the night in Oslo.
ReplyDeleteHave you been making prank calls to the customs again, telling them to be on the look-out for a bird-like, french speaking guy, Wilhelm? You're so naughty sometimes. No wonder he's late...
ReplyDelete;-)
...mentally categorizing him as a card-carrying member of the weirdo society.
ReplyDeleteNot only a member, but also founder, president and Grand Master of Ceremonies! The social skills of some people are un-f*cking-believable to qoute Andrew "Dive" Clay.

ReplyDeleteI loves it when a plan comes together. :-)

Don't I know it. Came across another variety last night. Some people who frequent gyms are just oxygen thieves
