Oh noes, grunting at teh gyms?!?!

This is just stupid. I've never heard of a "no grunting" policy. People breathe. People breathe more, and more heavily, when working out. It's not a tough concept that a person doing heavy lifting will exert their breathing so forcefully that it makes a grunting sound. They're not just sitting around making pig noises, they're working out.

I like the list comment about "because libraries are just too noisy." This place's policy is ridiculous.

I also find it hard to believe what she claims, that he instantly became "very offensive and very loud" because she wanted to kick him out for grunting- especially given that he's hardly the only person who has a beef with this absurd policy. Go ahead and run your business the way you want, but you are putting your business' success in danger when you do stupid shit like this.

I hope he wins.
