It took me a while to pinpoint exactly what bugs the shit out of me most about this. It isn't the bullshit nature of the ridiculously fabricated story, it is that whoever posted it wouldn't do so unless they actually thought people would believe it sounded plausible. The combination of stupidity and arrogance is, well, just kind of sad.

It's kind of Fureyesque in its blatant manufactured ad copy. It lacks only the wizened oldster imparting the secret knowledge....
Out of breath, I was winded just from carrying a bag of groceries up the stairs to my townhouse. That's when I noticed the guy in a trenchcoat sitting by the steam grate.

"Hey, young fella, how would you like to be able to carry two grocery bags up those steps?"

Impossible, I scoffed to myself. What could this stubbly beggar know of true bag toting power? But nonetheless, I found myself intrigued by the idea, and I finally admitted-

"I wish I could, but I don't see how."

"I can show you how, but first you must prove yourself serious, and prove you are truly committed to eliteness."

"How do I do that?"

"You must buy me... a bottle of gin."

That night my life was changed forever.

Genital warts mentioned in one comment some years ago. Not exactly a confirmation, but a funny addition to the goofiness of the trainwreck that is Shoreline. It's like the stupidest kid on the football team became a coach.

I do not really have any hate for crossfit, I like to laugh at them, but I hate Shoreline crossfit. The women that runs that place is a english teacher, could you tell from her writing? I liked going there for a time because she had the strict librarian look going, but that has passed.

It's like that classic line from Red Green ..."(She) means well...she just doesn't do well."

Jesus, every tendon and ligament in my elbows and back flinched when I saw this.

In her defense, that's probably a thruster and not a clean.

Shitty exercises don't have proper form.

I am guessing she is closer to 90lbs if she kept the yogurt and flax oil down.
