- zeeakz, on 08/09/2010, -3/+24Ewww, the mats of gym seriously sucks.
- djenna8, on 08/09/2010, -1/+18If you drink the alcohol instead of wasting it on the furniture you won't be so worried about germs..
- BeesKnees21, on 08/10/2010, -3/+18The only germs I see here are the "Digg Patriots".
- Aidenag, on 08/10/2010, -2/+17Reported: stop spamming legit users with your puppet accounts.
- Aidenag, on 08/10/2010, -6/+20Well if digg won't ban em, everyone just keep making sure they don't get anything on diggs frontpage.
All these non political stories are just them trying to not give credibility to Ole's expose on their secret club of partisan teabaggery.
And before any of these "patriots" replies to my comment with "we didnt do anything wrong"... I would like to interject that i worked as a mod for propeller.com up until 2009, and we banned most of your accounts back then for doing the VERY same things you just got caught doing on digg.
So give it a rest, Lizbett has had multiple accounts on multiple sites.. I know this because, im the one who banned them all..... She has been gaming social news for years now, and this is by no means the first time she has been caught doing it. - Jeepy, on 08/10/2010, -6/+19Honest question here Bett, no offense, but why do you still have an account? Between deserving to be banned and being ousted as a gigantic trolling dbag I'd refrain from submitting ***** just out of self-respect or at very least shame.
- inactive, on 08/09/2010, -7/+19One would hope that the gym would have spray bottles to wipe down the pads of the machines before use.
- Anomaly100, on 08/09/2010, -8/+20Buried for being "LAME" and at least I have the decency to comment when I bury, which is seldom. That is far more than your crew did for the rest of the 341.
- SteveMTyler, on 08/09/2010, -12/+24***** you
- USArugula, on 08/09/2010, -7/+18The scandal brought you back to digg? You just said the DP issue was getting old.
- 4321234, on 08/09/2010, -17/+28Can anyone explain why the digg patriots are submitting all these non-political articles, and yet it's mostly digg patriots that still give them their first 20 or 30 diggs?
Are they trying to get their popular % ratings higher or something. Maybe they think they're less likely to be banned, or something.
Any ideas on this?
And by the way digg.com, why the ***** do they still have accounts? - USArugula, on 08/09/2010, -7/+17You really suck at this, don't you? :-)

- BoboSmitor, on 08/09/2010, -1/+10Take a small spray bottle in your gym bag with alcohol in it. Spray it yourself if you are in doubt.
Here, I take one with me just in case.
I even spray my lunch table at staff room.
I hate germs. - misslindadee, on 08/09/2010, -5/+12and nasty germy fungals so leave footwear ON!

You've got it right, I think. It's camoflauge. - Kellster, on 08/10/2010, -4/+9Aside the from the atrocious writing, this is an absurd article. I have worked out for YEARS in some pretty horrible gyms - haven't has so much as a cold in forever. It's just another excuse for people to sit home and get fat. Bring a spray bottle with you to clean equipment? Are you kidding me? I'm 44 - and in great shape. Stay in great shape, and you'll protect yourself. It's really that simple.
Stop building a nation of scaredy-cats. - drewniverse, on 08/10/2010, -3/+8How does ***** like this get digged up?
Oh yeah, they gave mrbaby a bottle. - AusJP, on 08/10/2010, -1/+6Germs are in abundance where people sweat, shed skin and barely wipe down afterwards?
In other news, water is wet. - Thraken, on 08/10/2010, -0/+4But it is rather difficult finding barbells, dumbbells, and such out there!
Which is fine, cause I don't really like jogging outside when it gets to be -20 degrees anyway! - Amadeus2490, on 08/10/2010, -0/+4And has germs in it.
- Anomaly100, on 08/09/2010, -8/+12@4321234: I can explain that for you. She is doing what she *thought* we were doing:
Bett- “I will always bury them. Do we let them manipulate into gaining their positions back on digg with lots of FP soft/fluff stories then they sub a super liberal piece of crap and that goes FP too. We have to think this through….. what power we want them to have?” - chudson2, on 08/10/2010, -0/+3Thats why you lift rocks and squirrels.
- 4321234, on 08/09/2010, -4/+7Nice.
- bj1989, on 08/10/2010, -0/+3You walk around all day carrying a spray bottle of disinfectant? Everyone needs a few germs from time to time to keep their immune system on guard.
I suggest you stop trying to control the world around you and start to live, you may die early from skin cancer or you may live smoking till your 95 years old and fall down a step. It's all a big gamble and spraying alcohol isn't going to change that. - evilspoon21, on 08/10/2010, -0/+1"Im a high tech low life..."
- Microwav, on 08/13/2010, -0/+1Shoes and sandal for women,,,
Find the high Quality reviews and product.. http://shoes-women.tk/ - firebat9er, on 08/10/2010, -3/+4Fun fact: You can get plenty of exercise in the outside natural world for free. You know that place with the blue sky, green things, and fresh air?
- noumuon, on 08/10/2010, -1/+2yea, because anecdotal evidence is anecdotal and doesn't mean ***** for all kellster. of course, with your rationale, i'm not surprised you don't even grasp the basics.
- Thraken, on 08/10/2010, -1/+2I got a rash from the gym. Plenty of people have.
- DaviDTC, on 08/10/2010, -2/+2They still have accounts cause Digg still allows blatantly widespread blind digging. The blind burying is just a small thing compared to the blind digging that goes on. When they ban for blind digging they can then ban for blind burying.
- 2Deluxe, on 08/10/2010, -1/+1You're using the sauna wrong.
- agoodz, on 08/10/2010, -1/+1I got MRSA at a gym. True story.
- Kellster, on 08/10/2010, -3/+2Stop being such a wuss. It's not going to hurt you. Just get a workout in, shower, and leave.
Sheesh. - 2Deluxe, on 08/10/2010, -2/+1"They are the shower, mats, and exercise machines"... oh I see, so everywhere except outside the gym? INFORMATIVE ARTICLE, WOULD DIGG AGAIN A++++++.
Seriously though, nothing like scaring people for traffic. I go to the gym almost daily, as I have for the last 3 years and am yet to catch anything.. As long as you don't start licking the pads you'll be fine. Stop turning everyone into whiney antibacterial pussies with food allergies. - tinomen, on 08/10/2010, -1/+0I got on a commercial after going to karate class barefoot:

This IS an issue for someone with a compromised immune system, but for someone who is healthy, just don't do anything stupid, you'll be fine. - DaviDTC, on 08/10/2010, -5/+3I hate to argue for the DP users, but just look at the submissions before people found out. Plenty of non-political stories there already. If you are going to bitch about them, at least don't make ***** up that is easy to prove wrong.

Oh and since I gave a link to all her submissions, feel free to bury them all. I know I am. - inactive, on 08/09/2010, -23/+15It is called submitting good content, checking friends' activity, having a good network on Digg, and eventually getting voted up by the "community". Enough. The whole "DP" non-issue is getting old!
- akchrs, on 08/10/2010, -11/+1LOL!! Just got frontpaged.
- inactive, on 08/09/2010, -18/+7Sleep? This scandal is what brought me back to Digg. Six more months? No way! The elections are around the corner.
- inactive, on 08/09/2010, -19/+6What is "this"? A bulletin has gone out on several Tea Party meetups about the whole deal, and we are hoping to get reinforcements.
- inactive, on 08/09/2010, -18/+5I read a blurb on it from ABC news and started looking into it. Who would have thought that an internecine struggle on Digg would make the headlines. It intrigued me to the point that I felt compelled to come to the aid of the Digg Patriots.
- inactive, on 08/09/2010, -22/+7Reported. Stop spamming threads.
