24 Hour Fitness updated their app to require photo login for checkin but the Take A Photo button is broken and unresponsive. The only fix is to log out, log back in, answer a mandatory 12 page survey, and take a photo whereupon the Check-in button breaks. The desk staff are having a *great* day.

alright, so Prudence is dead set on getting photos of Bigfoot because: back in the day, her colleagues missed their chance to snap a photo of Nessie, because Prudence was masturbating too loudly and scared it away true facts.
