Overheard at the gym

I have talked before about the world of women (not ladies!) at my gym. If you have opinions about the niceness and demureness of sedate-looking women of a certain age, well, keep your jury out on that until you spent some time working out with them. Because a 70-something woman told this joke today…

Three old ladies are sitting on a park bench. A flasher stops in front of them and pulls his raincoat wide. So Mabel has a stroke. Then Louella has a stroke. But Bessie was too old; she couldn’t reach that far.

Enjoy your day.

  1. I love women.

    Many years ago at another gym (co-ed) there was a counselor named Marge, very knowledgeable, very fit, who noticed that I had difficulty with bench presses. She talked to me about it and finally concluded “Weak tits.”

    “Excuse me?”

    “You have weak tits. Bench presses are pectoral exercises as much as arm strength.”

    Slightly dismayed, but game, I said “Not a problem you have, I take it?”

    She smiled and shook her head. “Iron supplements.”

    *sigh* I love women.

  2. My mom is 73. She spent most of her life being repressed in every way possible by her mentally ill/personality-disordered parents. They are both deceased now and I am watching my mom blossom. It’s pretty incredible. I’ve been amazed at some of the things she’s said lately. We saw a woman treat her four-year-old son roughly in the mall because he wasn’t listening for a minute. This is a sore point with me because I wanted a ton of kids but physically can’t have them. I asked, rhetorically I thought, why people have kids if they don’t want to care for them properly. My mom answered, “Because sex is fun.”

    My mom is amazing.
