Etiquette at the Gym

I put in all my stats, get the program started, fire up the iPod, and start my run.

After about 15 minutes, a guy comes and stands right in front of my treadmill. I do not know him. After a couple of seconds of him looking at me, I reach up and take the earbuds out of my ears. And he says "That's my usual treadmill."

"Oh," I say. I look down at the display and say "I'll be finished in about 15 minutes."

He repeats that it is his usual treadmill. I look around, note at least a dozen unused treadmill, and shrug my shoulders. I then replace my earbuds.

Did this asshole really think I was going to just stop in the middle of my workout so that he could have "his usual treadmill"?
I've experienced this also. The other move I love is when the guy stands behind the weight machine you're using and paces and sulks at you in the mirror. I pull my hat down real low and stare at the floor, so he can't make eye contact. I imagine that, were I not wearing my Ipod, I'd have to listen to the prick disgustedly sigh.

I hate getting caught staring at chicks asses at the gym. I do it as slyly as I can. but I ain't that sly. I'm always getting busted by MILFs, who probably think its flattering, and college girls, who probably think its gross. I assume women at gyms know men are doing this and don't care all that much. Do you take it as a compliment when you catch a guy sneaking a peak, or unwanted attention?
