Planet Fitness's business model apparently relies on marketing most heavily to people that will sign up for a full year on January 2nd, go once, and fail at their resolutions. I'm guessing that kind.

This is every gym's business model.

Planet Fitness is pretty much your average no-classes budget gym for people too cheap to pay for frills and runners who need a treadmill in the winter because they're giant babies about cold weather (I am both). At the one by me, the pizza is way off to the side by the front desk, not by any actual machines, but that's probably the least stupid thing about this story. But that's okay because whoever wrote it was clearly doing a parody. If it was posted in a blog that takes submissions, though, apparently at least one person believed it.

Who the gently caress talks like this? Who even thinks people talk like this? I've said it before, these things read like they were written by an alien who has only ever heard secondhand descriptions of human interaction and never actually witnessed any.

I've said it before, it really sounds like the way I would write a "bimbo villain" (or someone addressing said bimbo vilain) when I was like 12 years old/at the height of my middle school bitterness.

But either way I'm 99.5% sure this one was a parody so the unnatural dialogue isn't as stupid as if the person was actually trying to convince us.

At least go with a line like "let's go make that shower... co-ed", but even something as lame as that is probably reserved for the suave protagonist

The thing that I hate the most about these is that there is always some completely absurd time frame thing in every story. Like, at some point in every one of these stories the world comes to screeching halt so the writer can sit down and have a 15 minute conversation with someone so they can get enraged.

I've always been curious how dumb people develop grammatically wrong but internally consistent writing styles (like this guy's use........of ellipses) but not enough to ever actually look into the matter.

It really seems to be almost universal in cases where the story's protagonist defends a lowly customer service employee and/or a precious, precious gay.

Truly, a literary masterpiece for the modern age. You gotta read between the lines man. Also between the numerous ellipsis and exclamation marks. (when will people get exclamation marks just make them look like morons when used at that level?)

I also love how at first her want of sex is portrayed as good and attractive and then bam she's a SLUT oval office TEMPTRESS (like all women except his mom).

I think that was something the Not Always Right constellation of websites liked to jam into many of the longer stories. But that just might be the first time I noticed since it seemed to come up so often.

Dude meets girl, they are totally into each other, they go back to her's where dude meets her husband who's paralysed after a car crash and who seems to be OK with girl banging other dudes since he can't.

Protagonist proceeds to flip out and hurl abuse at the girl and shares a manly moment of bro hugs and respect with hubby.

Hear me out.
I was a good guy, trying to make a difference in schools. I had decided I wanted to be a teacher, and spent a year, almost two, teaching at-risk teens. It was a natural extension of my social work, and it felt good to provide a background. Last week of my third semester, one of my kids became obsessive with one of my aides. These people are learning the ropes, and trying to make themselves into great teachers. The Aide was very pretty, sweet girl with a kid and husband, and decided to let the kid down easy by taking him to a 'quiet room' (essentially a room for kids to calm down in) and explain that she was in her 20s, he was 15, and it wouldn't work. Kid didn't take no for an answer. He decided to lay hands, ripping her clothes, beating on her. I heard the scuffle and crashed my classroom (calling for additional aides and going to isolate the issue). He was about to begin his work with a chair. Kid had a violent record, and honestly it was a drop in situational awareness. The kid swung the chair to hit me, I dropped him with two punches to the face. It was rash, I busted the kid's nose and his eye socket. He admitted to wanting to sexually assault the teacher, and had done a real number on her. Dozens of stitches, all of her front teeth gone, broken cheek bone. After the hearing I plead down on the issue to lose my license, and started a new life. My job lets me get my teaching buzz out, but when it comes to a nearly full grown male deciding to rape my colleague? I don't feel sorry for the damage.Vote it down, vote it up, side to side. Don't care, just figured I'd tell the tale after so many years. Thanks for the listen.
