Short People Unite

[Billfred]

Since half of the FIRST events I've gone to this season have involved Big Mike, I feel inclined to join you. Hopefully the 6'0" thing doesn't faze you.

Now, if you really want to get politically correct, let me present myself in a more positive light than "Vertically Challenged."

First of all, short people are not actually challenged. We are in fact, very very very skilled at obtaining family-size individuals to help us reach things and or put us into tall locations. Some of these family-size individuals are people, others are inanimate objects. It varies.

I pride myself in the following descriptive phrases -
Snack Size
Fun Size
Travel Size
Bite Size
Mini Size
Yum Size
Frolic Size

Snack size is a personal favorite, as I am eating a snack presently.

And no, I can't join your alliance. Just a bit too tall...

5'3.5 .. and that point five is extremely important .... EXTREMELY ...

oh .. and for other Canadians .. if you are under 5 feet (and fully grown) .. you may qualify for legal midget status ... ... look into it ...

Indeed!!!
I'm 4'11" and am so far the shortest person to post on this thread!! w00t!

"Before you go to college, you need a stool and a tall boyfriend to bring around everywhere" --My Parents, believe it or not

Another point:
We're very useful when those tall ppl are just a tad too short to reach something, and they need an addition to their height.

Lovin' the short life. It's taken me all of 5 years to go from 4"9 to 5"4... AT LAST TALLER THAN MY MOTHER. >< Shorter than everyone else.

Vertically challenged is the way to go.

I still haven't out grown my mother. At 5-1 it is horible. Every one I hangout with is at least 5-9 so it is really bad on my neck.
