can't use chalk at my gym either, same reason you cannot juice.... cause you have nimrods that abuse it and don't clean up after themselves.
the best gym i've ever been to was my high school gym. it was dusty, chalk everywhere.. no shirt rule, grunting was allowed, yelling was allowed. you could drop the weights..

This right here is one of my BIGGEST pet peeves. It drives me absolutely friggin nuts.
We've got this group of mexicans that come in and usually only flat bench. They MIGHT weigh 150 soaking wet and are like twigs. They usually get up to a whopping 185ish and literally move the bar MAYBE 4" and then lockout. It's hilarious and I laugh every time.
Doing pull-ups........
Do a set... taking my break under the bar........ and 2 guys come over (after watching me) right next to me and start doing pull-ups... WTF?
This would not have bothered me if they woulda said "hey man can i jump in"...
i seriously contemplated the consequeces of hitting them both in the jaw....... and telling them to have some dam manners... but i like this Gym
BTW there are 4 other Pull-up bars in the dam gym....

When I put up the gymnastic rings on the pull up bars eyerone adn there droper thinks they can do dips and muscle ups on it. It is hilarious to watch them come over after seeing me do 25 muscle ups, and they ask, " Hey can i try?" I politely tell em sure go ahead. I have yet to see one person who can manage to do a full dip on them, they usually spead them way out and fall to the ground. The muscleups are even more hilarious as they can pull up to parallel, but when the try to bend there wrist and push up they fall from the rings.
And then there is the guys who see me power clean and they try to do it and fall over!

I had an asshat experience this am. I workout at 6:15 everyday. Usually the same crowd there and can get through my workout pretty quickly, hit some cardio and roll. Well this am there is some old guy probably late 60's in there. I am like dam I hope i am still working out when I am his age. Long story short he starts supersetting between the smiths machine and the cables each on opposite sides of the gym. So I respectfully go over and work a set while he is on the Smiths. Put the weight back to where he had it the whole 9. Next thing I know he comes running over to me as if to let me know he is going to use both machines at the same time. To top matters off I try to go to the opposite side of the cable machine to continue with my set of rope push downs and as I am grabbing the rope and headed to the other side some chick walks right in front of me and just lays her hand up on the machine I need and starts gabbing to her girlfriend. Ok lets look at this. It is 6:15am. Tren running through my veins and trying my best to be polite. Have to say I let a Good God!!!! Slip and said it pretty loud due to the fact I had my I-pod blasting and I think the chick got the hint because she went back to the machines and went to gab outside of the free wieght room. Geez does any body have any gym etiquette anymore?
Nope... every gym day.. i go to use equipment and i have to rack weights... Im gonna go the fuck off one of these days...

Two women in the squat rack next to me. Had 95 lbs on the bar and were doing some ridiculous partials and shit. The racks are tight so I wait until they clear away before I put my next set of plates on my bar. So I set up for my lift, and they stand right next to my bar just outside my rack and start talking about how great planet fitness is. Needless to say, I said fuck it and started the lift anyway. They got out of the way in lue of being knocked in the head with some plates...
Then to my left I have 3 idiots screaming at the kid on the seated OHP bench to get more reps like it was an Olympic event. The bar had a set of dime plates on it.

^^ People who have NO awareness at all of what's going on around them and stand in the dumbest places in the gym just amaze the hell out of me. I find myself all the time waiting for people to get out of the way of the obvious path of the barbell. Are you really that oblivious that you're standing right up against a squat rack/power cage that someone is actively using with several hundred pounds on the bar? lol...it's amazing.
Imagine how these people would fare in the wild..
