WTF

While I was home sick yesterday I spent a lot of time in front of the television (as one in my cough induced condition would be inclined to do). Against my better judgement I decided to watch miscellaneous talk shows and gossip reels rather than just having a Dexter marathon like I should have.

One of the news shows had a segment about going to the gym. This wasn't your typical going to the gym segment, this was the what to wear and how to look segment. It was absurd - as a woman going to the gym you are supposed to portray an apparent look of not intending to sweat or get a work out of any sort. In order to do this you need to spend approximatedly $400 on miscellaneous crap. I'm so not even kidding about the price tag. You should wear at least $150 worth of clothes and shoes. Then you should buy fancy $10 hair ties so no one can see your ponytail holder. Then you should spend at least... AT LEAST $50 on special before you go to the gym makeup - then another at least $50 for the after you're done with the gym makeup. You also need to drop another $50 on gym perfume... I understand not wanting to smell like ass at the gym, but how bout some $3 deodorant!? I'm not going to put on any perfume that I can sweat through! And finally you should drop another $20 or so on some fancy hair powder instead of just washing it or leaving it in a ponytail... I was appaled. I still am.

I should, however, be more disgusted with the fact that I sat and watched the segment...
