Are you kidding loud grunting guy at the gym?

Physical fitness? Watch what you eat, exercise, don't smoke....it's important. And, without it we wouldn't have great infomercials for ridiculous exercise apparatuses with celebrity endorsements like Susan Summers for the the Thigh Master or Chuck Norris & Christie Brinkley for the Total Gym. (Yes, I knew those off the top of my head. No, I am not embarrassed, I just watch a lot of t.v.) But it's safe to say that instead of making 4 easy payments of $52.99, most people join a gym. And gyms are great. They have all the equipment and services that anyone would need to fulfill their wildest fitness dreams. But what gym's don't need is the bonus soundtrack. Ugh! Ugh! Ugh! Are you kidding loud grunting guy at the gym? Everyone knows you are there. It's kind of hard not to notice an old guy wearing a two-sizes-too-small-cutoff t-shirt who obviously has more chemicals running through him than the major leagues. Why do you feel it necessary to further announce your presence by grunting? You make it sound like Edwin Starr's "War" is playing on repeat. I get it. The weights are heavy. But are they heavier than the entire Junior Team USA? You see, loud grunting guy at the gym, Coach Gordon Bombay lifted the entire team to win the Junior Goodwill Games. And not once during D2: The Mighty Ducks did he grunt. I think the weights you are lifting weigh a little less than Goldberg and the Bash Brothers, let alone the rest of the team. So the next time you want to loudly grunt at the gym, think of the knuckle puck and keep your damn mouth shut.
