I can't believe I even have to mention this, but there he was, a bald guy shaving his head into the sink at the gym. He's probably the same asshole who left a big unflushed turd in the toilet with toilet paper all over the seat.
I should probably add a note to those people who think they have to shave three times a day...please refrain from shaving in public sinks, period. A little stubble never hurt anyone, even those who were too lazy to shave BEFORE coming to work.
And for those asshats who insist on dumping their ice, coffee, and assorted trash into the hallway water fountain, a big fuck you to you. It's a public water fountain, not a public trash bin.

You dont have a thread for breaking news like this? A rant thread? A things James Ford hates/loves thread?

I think this issue is far too large to capture with the net that a personal vanity thread could cast.

There is no issue. You have an issue with everything. I see people doing shit i don't approve of all the time, but don't feel it necessary to bitch about it on the internet to strangers. So he was at the GYM? After working out? And the issue? Do you also have a problem with people taking a *GASP* shower there? ITs a public place after all... But you might see a wang and I am going to assume you would also start a thread about that.
(this is the reason there is a random thoughts thread)

I don't have a problem with people taking a shower at the gym. That is what the shower is for. But if they left a turd, a big pile of hair shavings, or a big wad of cum in the shower, yes, I would have a problem with that. As would most reasonable people. I'm just trying to get the message out from the reasonable people to the idiots of the world who can't think beyond themselves.
Let me guess. You're bald.

I don't understand why you get so bent outta shape about someone starting a thread on a topic you don't consider thread worthy. It's a message board, it's made for people to discuss things. For example, I don't like your nerdy geeky comic book thread, but my response isn't to say anything negative in it, rather I simply don't post in it at all. It in no way negatively affects me. But if I or James Ford make a topic that isn't Baltimore pissed jeans noise Rock house shows, you lose your crap every time. What gives?

I dont like Pissed Jeans. I left before they played UnFest.
I am trying to entertain myself, same as you.

Crying about it on the internet like a little beta is always more effective than actually saying something to the person in real life.

Good point. It's not really my place to say anything, but I certainly could say something to management. I actually think there have been signs which addressed these issues at the gym in the past. However, as soon as the signs come down, the problem behavior reappears. Hence, at this point, I have little recourse but to bitch and hope that assholes read message boards and are turned on to the errors of their ways.
If you want to bitch about human behavioral problems that don't seem to correct themselves, I'll happily lend an ear. I lend one to my wife every day for said reason.

well, I can think of at least two assholes who read this message board. Not sure if follicle-challenged gym guy is one of them though.

Perhaps you could get some cheap business cards printed through like vista print that instructs the person to check out your rant about their behavior on the 930.com forums and then hand them to the individuals discreetly and in a very nonconfrontational way. It'd probably improve your success rate.

Thanks Walkie! I'll even commit to paying for them and mailing them to Rhett if he'll agree to use them.

This whole discussion reminds me of the time that someone aggressively confronted me after I left an Express newspaper on my seat on the Metro (an Express paper that I had *found* on the seat mind you, left there my a previous patron). He followed me off the Metro train, chewing me out about leaving trash on the Metro, etc. He continued to follow me out of the Metro station, crossing the street, and following me all the way to the door of my workplace, continuing to chew me out. Often he was within a foot of my face and body, without actually making body contact.
Some kind of deranged homeless guy, you might think? Well not unless he was a deranged homeless (white) guy in business casual dress on a weekday.
Perhaps he should have had a business card ready instead.

how cute, this turnabout game, you are playing.

Hell, I don't even much like it when I see some dude brushing his teeth in the office bathroom sink. In theory it doesn't bother me, but in practice the guy who does makes a mess and seems to spray his pasty spittle everywhere.
When I walk into the bathroom and see these white globs of fluid, I want to be horrified at the notion of a man throwing sperm everywhere he sees life, not at the thought of someone fighting cavity creeps. Ya know?

Like I said before there are like 10 threads about bands that are plating in town. Condense them down to one and that clutter will be gone. I want more interesting threads. Why do we possibly need a just announced and just announced commentary. Combine them. As for this thread I am all for it. Instead of James Ford derailing a thread he is putting it by itself.

Brushing your teeth while strangers are shitting in the same room is very gross. I would use the water fountain. I don't get the brushing your teeth at work unless you are on your way to the dentist.

The good thing about being tall and bigger than most people is that I never have to experience shit like that. I probably would have shoved him.

I think this is just a way for you to put down bald guys. I approve. But I am surprised that you pay for a gym membership.

The big question is why do you need to shave your head in front of a mirror? What are you inspecting and how much does the mirror really help? Wouldn't it have been just as easy and more efficient to do it while showering (I'm assuming if you're shaving/shaving your head at the gym you've probably showered as well) as you wouldn't be stuck gazing into a mirror and wondering where it all went wrong?

All very good questions. He was shaving his head with some kind of electric contraption. So if he had taken it into the shower, he would have been electrocuted. Apparently, he's thoughtless but not dumb.

I think some bald guys look better without hair. America is the land of the bad male haircut, and some people just plain have ugly hair.
Also, some people have employers who pay for their gym membership and others have employers who provide non-profit gyms with low rates in their building. I *might* fall into one of those categories.

I'm always too worried about losing/breaking my expensive specs to be physical with anyone. So my blindness and complete dependence on my glasses actually probably ends up being a benefit.

What you spent money on expensive glasses? I wear Prada glasses what do you wear?
-
Expensive is all relative I guess. I have a pair by Pro Design and another pair I bought at a See Eyewear store (I think they only make their own (?)) When you're as blind as I am and need the thin lenses, I think the lenses end up costing you more than the frames.
My brother just did the two pair for $69 deal at one of those discount places. As someone who chooses not to have kids, they work as the perfect form of birth control for him.

I think whenever I get glasses they end up being 600 dollars no matter what I choose. I think those Lens Crafters/Pearl Vision stores have all their frames from Italy made at the same factory so whatever brand you get is made at the same place.

amazing you felt a need to share something so gross..
maybe i should start a hey guys please wash your hands after taking a wiz thread

You are correct. Luxottica makes 80% of all frames sold.
They also own Lens Crafters, Pearl Vision, Sunglass Hut and Target/Sears Optical.
Amazing what people will pay for the same molded plastic and wire.

I think I've said it before, and perhaps it proves my vanity. Two things I don't mind paying beyond the median for are a good haircut and a nice looking, comfortable pair of glasses.

I'm sufficiently happy the pair I got off of Coastal, but with my crap eyes my free pair still ended up being roughly $90-100 still better than retail, and I get the offhand compliment on them every now and then. Usually from dudes, but I just assume they're gay and take it as a double compliment.
-
Why aren't you glasses dudes getting Lasik?
-
I would love to, but I am a poor candidate as I have one eye that is legally blind. . . not the one that my corrective lenses correct. My eyes are crap upon crap.
-
I got lasik like 7 years ago. Best thing evar. wished I had done it sooner.
-

is it true that if you get Lasic and then severally years later your eyesight gets worse, you can't wear contacts ever again?
-
Lasik does not prevent your eyes from aging. Don't know abt the contacts thing, but i can't wear them for reasons unrelated to lasik.
-
That's a very good question. My brother got the Lasik years ago, and now he's back to the budget birth control glasses. Not sure about the contacts, I'll have to ask him.

Sure thing, though h ill only be sample of one.
This says it's an unban legend, fwiw.
http://www.wakehealth.edu/LASIK-Surgery/Frequently-Asked-Questions.htm
If necessary, can I wear contact lenses after LASIK?
LASIK does not modify the cornea in a way that would prevent contact lens wear. Not being able to wear contact lens years after LASIK is an ?urban legend? that probably got started because this was true for radial keratotomy or RK.

Not pointless at all. I know who has tastes that are somewhat similar to my own and when they are listening to something I have not heard, it makes me check it out. That thread has a very clear point.
