Gymgoer makes enemies by cutting the line and hogging equipment, cue petty payback: ‘My blood is boiling just from the principle of it’

There is nothing quite like an obnoxious person at the gym. On some days, they're just interrupting your workout and it's minor enough for you to shrug it off. However, sometimes the behavior is so egregious that it entirely ruins your day. It could be the way that they're hogging the equipment. It could be the way they're posing for social media posts. It could even be the way they always seem to be looking in your general direction. As someone who rarely goes to the gym anymore, I can't say I fully relate but I can empathize with the sentiment.

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit by u/Exciting_Telephone65, who witnessed an obnoxious fellow gymgoer cut the entire line on a busy day. Later when he tried to steal equipment, OP could not help but make matters more difficult for him. Keep scrolling below for the full story and for similar anecdotes from folks in the comments section.
