I Miss The Gym. This Is Why I Can’t Go Back.



There’s no explanation for anti-maskers, anti-vaxxers, dictator-supporters and chaos-lovers. It’s all beyond comprehension.


Every single day insects vaccinate anti-vaxxers with their filthy mandibles: gnats, mosquitos, flies, dust mites, eyelash mites, ticks, etc., etc. — injecting filth, toxins, bacteria, viruses and more directly into anti-vaxxers’ bodies. Anti-vaxxers are obviously fine with this as not a word is spoken about it. But they are sent into an apoplectic rage over a sterile needle injecting life-saving medicine. Also, every anti-vaxxer has herself been vaccinated, so there’s that hypocrisy - not to mention the associate child abuse.


My gym, BJ Penn in Hilo Hawaii, has a big sign on the door: “NO ENTRANCE WITHOUT MASK.” After entering you must be buzzed through the locked gate which has the same sign on it. Signs are posted everywhere inside on the mirrors and machines. Spray bottles with disinfectant are at every machine.


I went in to work out and nearby was an asshole without a mask. Additionally he did not wipe down the machine as the gym policy demanded. Immediately I saw an employee walk by, look at this guy, and continue on, saying nothing to him. I followed the employee to the front desk:


ME - You saw that guy not wearing a mask and said nothing. He’s also not wiping down the machine.


EMPLOYEE - Yeah, I know. What can you do?


ME - What do you mean? You have the rules posted.


EMPLOYEE - Sorry, I don’t have the authority.


ME- You don’t have the authority? It’s a PRIVATE Business. You set the rules. Obey the rules or get out.


EMPLOYEE - I can't do that. He might cause trouble.


ME- Then call the police. You instead choose to insult every other member here by allowing one asshole to flaunt the rules and endanger everyone else?


EMPLOYEE - Sorry. (head tilt)


Beginning today it was announced that everything on the island of Oahu (Honolulu) is shut down for two weeks, thanks to the rule-breakers and the business owners who don’t enforce the rules. I feel sorry for the responsible business owners who despite complying may now may lose their businesses altogether, but it’s the rule breaker assholes they need to be enraged with, not the government.
