The frat boys come in packs between 4-12, they usually tie up about 3 benches/machines, and the entire time they talk about the parties they had that week, how much beer was left over, their upcoming poly sci test and how they are going all sit in a row and wear baseball caps. And of course they discuss this in the loudest possible voices so the whole room can hear. I usually try to hit the gym when the frat boys aren't there because they are just so damn annoying.
Bingo. Especially the ones that weigh about 130lbs, have kanjii tattoos on their arms, shorts that are half hanging off their ass, etc, and think that they should be competing in strong man competitions . And they usually show up about once a month, do about 5 bad reps on a machine, then stand in the mirror and flex.

Oh yea, then there are the assholes who you see in there who haven't broke a sweat their entire life, but they try to give advice to other people or their friends that is completely WRONG. Better yet, watching them try to do exercises that they're completely incapable of doing. For example, I usually do iron crosses with 5 to 12 lb barbells and hold it for about a minute to strengthen my shoulders after the torn rotator cuff. One guy decided to be tough and try it with a pair of 25 lb bells . He could only get them up about half way, and held it for maybe 4 seconds.
