'zoom lens' joke deemed too obvious

Good news, people, local health clubs have *finally* had enough of people using the cameras on their cell phones to take pictures of other people in the locker rooms of their clubs. [strib story here] At last I can go back to letting it all hang out.

Hold up. Are people seriously going into locker rooms and taking pictures of other people taking showers or something? Really? I could see this being a problem if, say, the locker rooms were co-ed - and let's be honest, even in that case, I think it would mostly be the dudes who were the problem - but are there really a bunch of websites out there where people post a bunch of grainy pictures of pale white guys wearing only their high tops? Lord help us if there are.

And what's more, is it really necessary to make an explicit policy that bans taking nudie pictures in the locker room? Shouldn't that just be something that people kind of 'know' not to do? What's next? No peeing in the pool?

It's a slippery slope, my friends.
