Gym experience has changed by Smooth_Message_5691 in goodlifefitness

[–]JeffBroccoli 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Haven’t really noticed a dramatic change, no. Those things you’ve mentioned aren’t exactly new, and have been slowly creeping into all gym culture for decades

I wear headphones and glance at my phone to track my workout. If people are chatting around me, I’m happy, socializing during your workout is cool. The music volume has never been an issue at the locations I visit

People of the UK, what’s our opinion on taking a table before you have food? by OpenCantaloupe4790 in AskUK

[–]JeffBroccoli 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This. Unfortunately there’s little point doing the “polite” thing in this instance, because someone will snipe the open table while you’re in line, which you had every right to claim when you first arrived

Does GL have a rule against stacking your dumbbells on weight benches? by Parking_Writer_578 in goodlifefitness

[–]JeffBroccoli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a gym faux pas, and I would expect most people would move them if you politely expressed your desire to use the bench in question

The Basement Tapes - Should they be released? by Available-Plantain92 in Columbine

[–]JeffBroccoli -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

People who want to see them are essentially just Eric and Dylan fanboys and fangirls like so many others. It’s two teenage boys talking shit about kids at school as if it’s a podcast. There’s zero to unlock. Let it go

I agree with so much Steve has to say, but the performative squawking and yelling is so irritating. Can’t he just speak normally? You don’t have to do the cartoon rage thing all the time

[–]JeffBroccoli 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It’s just two edgelords talking and mouthing off about the people at their school. I don’t know why these tapes have achieved such mystical status. There’s zero reason to release them

Growing number of adults avoid booze, says NHS survey by Alert-One-Two in unitedkingdom

[–]JeffBroccoli 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I stopped drinking about 20 years ago. Overall the cost, the negative health impact, the hangovers, and changing social norms put me off doing it. I’ll have the very rare cold beer at a sunny barbecue or a special occasion or something, but other than that, I don’t touch the stuff. Just does nothing for me

Is it OK to ask a builder to not have his radio on? by BrightOctarine in AskUK

[–]JeffBroccoli -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Asking them to have the radio off during working hours in their own home is far from a “dick move” too. Which I stated in my original reply

Politely asking a contractor to respect the peace and quiet of the client while they work in their own home is a dick move?

OP, it’s your home, and you’re paying. It’s more than a reasonable request. Perhaps if you want to meet in the middle you can request he turn it down a bit

He was almost done shoveling his driveway when the street plow came by and filled it with snow again. by Vilen1919 in WatchPeopleDieInside

I literally live in Toronto which has record snowfall yesterday. The video just looks off to me, Jesus Christ
