Swim Rant

Originally posted by Trinubntraining a pool with no lane ropes or lane lines a pool where you're the only one swimming laps and everyone stares at you getting overtaken by someone who first hits you in head around the ear and then kicks you just below the lip on your chin, and then that same person subsequently acting as if nothing happened!! :eek: Sounds like a person with serious issues... My addition: a long while back, I swam in a pool divided for lap and open/rec swimming. That wouldn't have been a big deal, except that often people didn't respect the boundaries. For instance, I once had to work my way around two women who were just standing in a lap lane chitchatting and not moving aside so people could .... um... swim? I seem to remember too that they weren't even all that apologetic when reminded that it was a lap swimming lane. But since it was a long time ago, I could be remembering that part wrong.
