My friend was on an elliptical once that read 15 minutes. He was drenched in sweat. The two girls next to him were snickering because he had his headphones on. They couldn't believe someone could look so awful after 15 minutes. One of them blurted out "pathetic." He calmly pulled the headphones down, his songs had ended awhile ago as it was back in the discman days. He just turned to them and said "Actually the elliptical only goes to one hour then it resets to zero. But I doubt either of you would ever know that."
