Anyway, after I stretched I started feeling guilty which is why I'm confessing here (but, like, also just don't do that, it's not your own private personal gym)
So when some dude came in and stacked his towel & swim trunks on the top rack of dumbbells like it was his personal table (he used machines and did cardio), 30 mins later I picked them up and ceremoniously plopped them on the floor next to it (yes, I needed the weights for a little shoulder work)
