Character up at carlisle, complain?

curadh · 19-08-2009, 22:49

Okay I'm serious there was a black fella up at carlsile gym today who did little or no weights for about one hour and just stood/sat on a bench smiling and flexing for the mirror pulling up his top and generally looking like a tool. I could stand that, but then unbelieveably he was in the changing rooms after parading around naked for about 30 mins with a big smile again and just had no interest in getting changed. Honestly I thought it was a filthy beadles about or something, even the old timers were laughing at him. My point is we could really do without this type of crap...am I venting this in the right place

I imagine he paid his money to join just like everyone else, and if he wants to admire himself, that's up to him. If he's not actually harassing anyone, I don't see that you have anything to complain about.

I think he should complain about you...

No. However, these groups would be far happier to accommodate your 'concerns'.

I use the Carlisle and have spoken to this lad a few times, seems sound and always willing to give you a spot.
Maybe you should just use your hour up there to exercise instead of looking at him.

What's the colour of his skin got to do with anything.

Anyhoo, he can sit where he wants so long as he doesn't prevent anyone else using said bench.

thats hilarious brutus knew who I was on a bout. I'm not a white supremicist haha if he was white I'd still be laughing but him being the only black guy in the place added to the funny funny. Listen if your in carlisle give yourself a giggle and watch this fella for a few mins

probably absolutely nothing, however as un-PC as it was, it was probably the easiest way for the OP to describe him.

edit: just seen the OP's response and it seems like I was wrong

I don't think a thread singling out this particular person is fitness related. Locked.
