Dorks And Losers

I don’t know how many times that I’ve expe­ri­enced this, but I think it hap­pens at least once a day on days that I swim. I hate it when some­one tries to get into your lane with­out noti­fiy­ing you or any­one else that is swim­ming in your lane. It’s proper lap swim eti­quette. You notify every­one in the lane that you’re com­ing in AND you don’t get in until you do.

When cir­cle swim­ming, you have to be con­scious of those swim­ming with you. The worst thing that could hap­pen is swim­ming into each other. You can’t be con­scious of those swim­ming with you if you don’t know how many peo­ple are in your lane. Peo­ple can’t just be get­ting into the lane with­out notice.

Case in point: Today I swam. This other girl and I were split­ting the lane. This guy tells me that he’s get­ting in and pre­cedes to swim with­out noti­fy­ing the other girl. He uses my lane until I start swim­ming. When the girl fin­ishes her lap, I tell her that there’s another per­son in the lane. Her response: “Oh wow.” She had no idea there was a third per­son in the lane nor did she know that we were sup­posed to cir­cle swim.

Idiots that do this: STOP. You’re being idiots.
