Kid refused to spot me today, so I returned the favor

[lunamu]

@aeri20 Hey can you hurry up?
Sure, can you help me finish?
No

You did the right thing. Just make sure he doesn't die.

 

[joaa]

@aeri20 Fuck that kid but man 5-6 sets on the bench press you gotta offer to let him jump in

 

[dawn16]

@aeri20 Wow you're such a tough guy.. you both acted like kids in this.

 

[budrick]

@aeri20 I'm only 26, but I understand now why the elderly don't like teenagers. I never got it until I graduated college and spent more time around adults and not teenagers. Seeing a pack of them out in the wild makes me tense cause you never know what stupid mess they will pull.

 

[jontue]

@aeri20 I don’t care much about him not spotting you. But asking you in the middle of a set is really annoying. Only people that would do that is a newbie at the gym or a complete asshole.

You taking the time to write this petty thing shows it bothered you more than it should. Just let it go and have a good Thanksgiving bro

 

[jesusislord1]

@aeri20 Set an example bro. Don't be that guy.

 

[friend2]

@aeri20 Kid was a jerk, but making fun of someone for the weight they’re using is a real bad look.

 

[aeri20]

@friend2 Never said 115 was bad

 

[shoes56]

@aeri20 Why are you telling me this?

 

[loviedivine]

@aeri20 Why r grown men so obsessed w showing up literal children. Maybe this kids a stuck up snob, maybe his parent just died or he’s had a bad experience w strangers who fucking cares it’s a kid and ur a grown adult act like it weirdo

 

[aeri20]

@loviedivine Nope I’m not gonna let some spoiled kid act like he’s better than me or anyone else in the gym of all places.

Maybe his parent just died is a bit of a reach lmao

 

[aeri20]

@loviedivine No I’m tired of disrespectful little kids thinking they own the place lol

Also, I say ‘kid’ but it’s not like he’s 12. He’s damn near a grown adult.

 

[trujerz]

@aeri20 Imagine taking the time to post this. You're pathetic.

 

[temirlan]

@aeri20 Op my approach has always been to model the proper behavior so that others can learn from you especially if you are the adult in the room. I think you missed an opportunity to teach an ignorant kid.

 

[dawn16]

@temirlan Nah, sometimes people learn better the hard way and this is what happened here.

Most 17 year olds aren't self aware enough to model someones good behaviour in the gym, and OP will just serve to enable their shitty behaviour.

 

[lotie]

@aeri20 Delete this bro

 

[distracted1]

@aeri20 What are you? 16? lol

 

[georgiabrown]

@distracted1 That's what I'm thinking. I'd rather spot an asshole then see him get pinned under the bench .

 

[dawn16]

@georgiabrown It's 115lbs, it isn't going to crush him. He'll just have to roll it off him and deal with a hurt ego.

 

[distracted1]

@georgiabrown I think just the fact that this kid came to Reddit to post this shows about how mature they are, and it isn’t more than a 16 year old.
