More Gym Etiquette

Whenever I'm at the gym, I always see and hear guys straining to lift as much weight as they can.  I'm afraid this is going to happen:




Please don't exert yourself so much that you lose control of your bowels trying to lift heavy weights.  You just might end up picking up a pile of your own shit off the floor instead of a barbell.

How Not to Use an ATM

Even though I no longer live in my hometown, I still keep up on the news since many of my friends and family are still there, and it gives a few minutes of conversation.  I also keep abreast (haha) of the news because I think it's funnier than hell when I see someone I used to know make the news for doing something stupid, or occasionally one of them will write into the paper and it's usually a good (enlightening and/or poignant) read.
Here is the article on this soon-to-be Darwin Award Winner:
This is my depiction of this guy:
 Now, I'm proud to say that I don't know this guy, but if I did, I'd tell him he was a dumbass and then I would turn him in to the local Crimestoppers and collect my $1000 reward, which was more than this fucktard got.

Gym Locker Room (or Too Many Nude Dudes in the Room)

I know that  gym locker rooms have the propensity to have guys briefly strip down while changing or after showering, and that's just dandy.  It doesn't really affect me one iota.  I can even tolerate guys that change clothes at a snail's pace by their locker.  I draw the line at this:


There is no compelling reason that obese, sweaty men need to stand or sit around for excessive amounts of time completely nude.  There are even ones so fucking brazen that they won't even bother taking a towel or drawers to the shower to put on when they are done.  Nude at the locker, nude walking to the shower, nude walking back to the locker...well, you get the point.
 
Get a damn towel and wrap it around you, is it that tough?  Apparently, every day is one fine day to be nude:

Blog Name Change

For my ZERO followers so far, I felt I had to change the name and URL of the blog, as it seemed a little to close to theoatmeal.com.  It's a great and funny site, and a great read.  Out of respect and sudden realization, and my lack of followers, it is changed.

Bent Paper Clip Shapes

I'm back, not that zero followers noticed.  I have been unable to decide whether or not I was happy with this blog title or not.  I am not happy, nor am I not unhappy, just undecided.

Work was a little slow today, and sitting in my desk was a box of paper clips.  I have never made paper clip origami before, so I decided to give it a shot.

The first thing I decided to make was a jumping paper clip:



It did all right, I was able to get it to jump over my computer monitor.

Then I decided to make a bug.  As I was bending the legs, I realized that I did not have enough paper clip for six legs, and decided to make a four-legged creature:


I cheated on this one and used pliers, but still not shabby for my first attempt.

Stay tuned.  As my talent increases, so might the coolness and complexity of my paper clip creations.
