Guy at the laundromat told me I was folding my shirts wrong
Last Tuesday I was at the 24hr laundromat on 3rd street and this older dude just walked up and grabbed a shirt out of my pile. He said I was crushing the collars by folding from the bottom up and showed me his method where you flip it from the shoulders. I stood there holding a damp sock while he demonstrated on three of my best button-ups. He didn't even say sorry for touching my stuff just kept talking about how he learned it in the army in 1985. Has anyone else had a random stranger just take over your routine like that?

Yo no way! That reminds me of something that happened to my buddy Marco at the gym last year. Some random dude walked up while he was doing bicep curls and literally pulled the dumbbell out of his hand mid-rep. The guy said his form was gonna wreck his elbows and then spent like ten minutes showing him "the right way" to curl. Marco just stood there with his mouth open holding air, lol. People are wild sometimes, especially the older guys who think they own every public space because they learned something back in the 80s.

Haha I gotta push back a little here @phoenix331! That's definitely not okay to just take someone's weights, but those older guys usually mean well even if they're super clumsy about it. I've had a few dudes give me unsolicited advice at the gym and most of it was actually helpful, just wish they'd ask first lol.
