Ok...so im home sweet home from good ol' Purdue Regional. I finally got to meet Genia which was really cool(were both crazy..so watch out haha)...at first I thought she was tall and stuff by standing next to her..then we were walking and we both took of our shoes to see who is taller (cuz i am like 5'2 also")...and it comes to the conclusion that Genia is...SHORTER THAN ME! haha

*shakes her head* Some people put their effort into growing taller and some people put their effort into growing bigger brains :p

*high fives all the fellow short-people*

Short people are awesome ;).

<self-plug>
Which is why I'd like to advertise my short people society..."Short People to Power", or SPP. Look out for me with a shirt in Atlanta.

hey genia, what's the height maximum requirement for SPP?

Eugenia Gabrielov

For females or males?

For girls, at the moment, we're deciding between 5'3" and 5'4". Those both feel like transitional heights, but we're not sure which one. We have interest for both groups. However, anything above that is getting a bit tall...

So, naturally, if I grow another 2 inches, I can't be in my own society :p

For guys? Oh, this is a tough one...maybe 5'4"? 5'5"? I dunno...

Some guy help me decide.

Hmm...I'm about 5'7"...make it about there. :-p

well okay, i'm between 5'4" and 5'5" (doctor says i'm 5'5" but they also told me i was 4'10" two years ago, so i don't really trust them...) but i feel so short compared to everyone. i just realized last week that i am shorter than the majority of the freshman. then again, i wear 3" heels around school to make myself feel better. but you see, i'm STILL barely as tall as everyone else *frustration*

so can i be an exception to the club? *earnest smile*

I dont know what you guys are talking about, Genia is HUGE!

She makes me feel so insignificant and antlike when she towers over me, honestly thats why i was glad i could stay behind the scoring table because when i tower of brandon martus and he sits near me i can feel tall unlike when i am around genia.

Wait, i could have that backwards, nope i got it right.
Genia > Me > Brandon

back to sleep.

I'll be sure to scanning the ground for Genia if we go to nats. :)

i guess you could possibly say that her shortness improves her ability in DDR.

I watched her. She's amazing! :yikes:

thats were a helmet, glasses, and a foam suit come in handy.

this thread got me thinking
[off topic and nerdiness]
What's the official height limit at which one is considered a midget?
[/off topic and nerdiness]

my mom is 5'0 and my great grandma was 4'7". Genetics didn't work for me i'm 6'0 and growin

Q: What is the definition of dwarfism?

A: Little People of America (LPA) defines dwarfism as a medical or genetic condition that usually results in an adult height of 4'10" or shorter, among both men and women, although in some cases a person with a dwarfing condition may be slightly taller than that.

Thank you google! The site listed that many are below 4'0".

Yeah but at that point I would say you are losing the "it's easier" part and would actually save time building a real goal :p

Hmm...I'm not a big fan of "Short People to Power." What you really need is a liberation front. Yep, this is a situation for a liberation front if I've ever seen a situation for a liberation front. Something like "Short Person Liberation Front." or SBLF. Better yet, work an E into there, and be SELF.

/Yes, I did steal that idea from the eco-terrorists, ELF.
