Was the planet fitness wearing dark clothes and listening to music?

No, no, no. It was riding a bicycle. Duh!

SUV driver killed man after driving into Planet Fitness.

There fixed the shitty headline

Not even buildings are safe from drivers.

And the 72 year old, wanting to better his health and longevity by working out... only to be killed by a driver while inside of the gym... cruel, cruel irony. 😟

Ugh, this brought back memories of trying to cancel my PF membership (they kept adding BS fees which practically doubled my membership cost) and had the audacity to want $75 for a cancellation fee.

Ended up closing the bank account instead and told them to go shove it. Never heard from them again.

Fuck Planet Fitness.
