mp_en_viaje: haha nah. i look like traditional euro male, what pumos.
asciilifeform: prolly when they see mp_en_viaje they think 'he pumps, somewhere else'
asciilifeform: i have nfi whether this is how 'pumpers' think (possibly word 'think' isn't even applicable) but can't say it is impossible either

diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: well yes, quite; asciilifeform I actually know gym without glass and moreover actually impossible to see into from outside but yes, not the run of the mill gym
mp_en_viaje: one step below making you wear their tshirts

asciilifeform: erry single public gym i've ever been to, had glass
asciilifeform: i always thought it were so that 'pumpers' could show off their muscle to pedestrians

mp_en_viaje: nice plushy couches for me ; the girls are working out across the glass.
mp_en_viaje: sooo, i'm at the gym.
