      It seems the rest of the world has decided that saunas need to be quiet, when the actual Finnish thing is a social event. You have a beer, sometimes a sausage on the oven. I don’t know what the point of a stfu wellness sauna in a gym is.

          People have told me and my friend to be silent twice before when we were talking in a respectful quiet tone, not even addressing anyone else.

      In places I’ve been to, yeah.

      I’m not interested in making small talk while trying to unlock all my chakras points and reach my final form.

      At my local it’s like a fucking pub in there. Yapping away. I wish they would all just shit up and sweat silently
