NYR

An acronym standing for "New Years Resolutioner". An NYR can be spotted at the gym fulfilling their New Year's Resolution to work out. After about 2 or 3 weeks of working out, this rare species often disappears back to their lair for the next 11 months or so before repeating the cycle again and again. Avid gym goers possess the ability to spot these NYR's immediately. The gym goers will often then strike up a conversation about the New York Rangers or something that associates with the initials of NYR, to alert the other gym members that an NYR is among them. The gym goers will then attempt to make the NYR feel awkward or self-conscious in hopes that they will never return. This way the avid gym goers can reclaim their machines, benches, squat racks, or treadmills.

*NYR walks into the gym and grabs your bench even though you still have three sets left*

Bill: (to all) ATTENTION EVERYBODY, THE NEW YORK RANGERS HAVE A GAME TONIGHT.

Avid Gym Goer: Thanks Bill, and hey i hate fat people by the way!
