Gym Etiquette
Did everyone resolve to lose weight in the New Year?
Having witnessed The Great Whole Foods Bagged Lettuce Riot of 2010, I’m guessing yes. I hope those pledging to slim down are doing it for health reasons, and not to conform to some arbitrary social norm. In my opinion, your butt is nobody’s business.

Tabloids explore the seamier side of the issue, gleefully speculating on whens, wheres and which cocktail waitresses.
