If you have to stand there staring at your phone, don't do it on the stairs or in the doorway! (Yet another crime with inverse age correlation).

If you have to stand there staring at your phone, don't do it on the stairs or in the doorway! Or while walking! I've gotten to the point where I won't move out of the way. I just stay my course and prepare to be walked into. And if they're stopped in the path, I stop and say "excuse me" and wait for them to move. I must be getting old and cranky ...

I must be getting old and cranky ... "Get off my lawn!" I can't bring myself to quite do what you do, but I have been known to say an occasional loud and somewhat sarcastic "excuse me". Pokemon Go has made this even worse, out and about. In the middle of the bike path. That sort of thing. I may want to get an air horn for my bike...

I may want to get an air horn for my bike... I like this idea -- it would be very entertaining to see how high they jump. Of course, you might need to also carry a defibrillator

That guy, you know that guy, who gets on the stair climber and not only stomps up the stairs as loudly as he can but, loudly, farts.

Or the person who sets up a bench, puts their stuff on the bench as a occupied marker, walks away, returns 30 minutes later, gathers their stuff up, and leaves. What up with that?

And the people who get on the threadmill, stand to the sides, set the mill to a high speed, and then make phone calls to brag about how fast they are going.

The people who get on the stairmasters, then text on their phone for 10 minutes WITHOUT EVEN STARTING THE MACHINE. Again, rendering perfectly good equipment useless.

Really? When did sniffing your armpits in the mirror between sets become a thing? (In front of the whole gym). I might be the last guy to adopt this practice, but it's catching on fast with the bros.

Are you seriously taking selfies (duck-face and all) in the locker room while everyone else around you is trying to get dressed for work??

People who set the treadmill to highest gradient, then proceed to walk while leaning back and holding onto the rails... effectively meaning they're walking perpendicular to the tread... as if it were flat. I guess it works the forearm muscles a bit?

If you have to stand there staring at your phone, don't do it on the stairs or in the doorway! That's an everywhere problem... especially the entrance to the supermarket.

I've gotten to the point where I won't move out of the way. I just stay my course and prepare to be walked into. One of my favorite things to do. When you're built like a NFL fullback, this is quite fun.

Please, please when you use the toilet at the gym and you don't flush, leave your address, so I can return the favor.
