19 Reasons Why Being Short Is The Best by valboy20(m): 10:23pm On Aug 03, 2014 |
1. Legroom on airplanes/cars is never an issue. 2. Oh, and of course, long-legged people who need the front seat are always grateful when you volunteer to fit in the back. 3. You can shop in the petites section AND the regular section. 4. And you’ve been known to sometimes shop in the kids’ section. (Cheaper!) 5. You pretty much never have to worry about being taller than your date. 6. You can be a jockey if you want. 7. Because you have a low center of gravity, you’re less likely to topple over. 8. You’ll never be too tall for a bed. 9. You can fit into small spaces if need be. 10. You never have to worry about bumping your head on stuff…unlike the pole heighted fellas 11. You can get lower to the ground when challenged to a game of limbo. 12. Evidence suggests that shorter people live longer lives. And there are numerous claims about short people having fewer health issues. 13. Short people actually experience things faster than taller people. According to one neuroscientist, taller people take about one-tenth of a second longer to perceive sensory information, which makes sense when you think about it — short people would have shorter neural pathways, meaning the distance information travels to your brain is much shorter. 14. Even though reaching things may be an issue, tall people always seem to be friendly enough to help a stranger out. 15. You can always hem long pants shorter…but you can’t make too-short pants longer. So, you win. 16. You’ll never have to worry about blocking someone’s view in a movie theater. 17. You can be an expert couchsurfer because you’ll always fit on a sofa. 18. People tend to mistake you for being younger than you are (at least, in your early twenties this seems to happen a lot). 19. Because you know you’re in good company with all the other fine short folks out there. http://buzzfeed.com/leonoraepstein/reasons-why-being-short-is-the-best?s=mobile 2 Likes |

What is this one saying? Btw : Q:What do you call a midget {short person} with. Three legs? A: Tom (DICK) & harry Q: What do you get when you cross a midget with a computer? A: A short circuit. Q: What do short people look forward to in life? A: Growing up! Q: Why are most midgets good guys? A: Because they don't look down on people. If Pluto isn't a planet because it's too small, then are midgets really people? I wish I was friends with a midget so I could introduce them by saying, "Say hello to my little friend" I just saw a midget nun and all I could think was oh ye of little faith. That awkward moment when you ask a midget what they want to be when they grow up. Last weekend I had about 45 minutes to kill before my NASCAR race came on TV, so I decided to watch a short film on my PC, so I wouldn't miss the start of my race, so I gooogled short films, .....and midget porn popped up, WTF, thats not what I meant by a short film!! I mean yeah everybody likes a little sex but thats ridiculous Op sorry |

so,OP what do you suggest i do?? cut my legs ,na ur type use umbrella wan bring out my eyeballs today 1. Tall people are more noticeable. Tall people are more noticeable, of course, but why is it a good thing? I know many of us see it as a detriment sometimes. We want to be avoided, not noticed. If we can turn this around however, it can become exceedingly positive. Being easily noticeable is something we can learn to use to our extreme advantage. There are many situations in life where it can be good to stand out. Can you think of any? It's also great to have a fun personality if we are tall. Being friendly AND noticeable is something we can use to meet new people. Just think about how great that could be. 2. Tall people are perceived as being visibly attractive. Tall people are seen as visibly attractive. How many times have you heard that girls really like tall guys? It is known that girls seem to enjoy going for taller men. We've heard that tall men have more success dating, make more money, and have more children. So it's definitely attractive to be tall. When it comes to girls, taller girls are very similar. They share many of these same qualities. Please keep this in mind when you think about your height. 3. Tall people seem to be well-respected in today's society. It seems that tall people are well-respected. People look up to us, they respect us, and they give us attention. We can command respect. This is a great advantage, if you think about it. Being respected makes you feel like a leader. People really value your opinions. It can be a great feeling when someone respects what you think and how you feel about something. Tall people just naturally seem to command respect in almost any kind of social situation. It's amazing to think that something like this can happen just because you happen to be more easily noticeable. 4. Other people want to be tall. You know it's a great advantage to be tall when other people want to be this way themselves. Lots of guys wish they were taller. Many girls wish they could have more height. There are advertisements all over the internet about "how to grow taller." It is obvious that being tall is something that a LOT of people want. And because we're already tall, we can revel in the fact that we have our height. We are lucky, and special. We have something that many people want. 5. Tall people just look nice. I've always believed that tall people look really good when they are in great shape. I think our bodies just somehow naturally look nice. I encourage all tall people out there to take up exercise, work out, or do anything you can do for your physical well-being! Being in great shape gives you more energy and makes you feel great. You will have more self-confidence and drive to succeed. Tall guys and girls have bodies that are just suited for being athletic. I would definitely recommend getting in shape if you are a tall person. You won't regret it. 6. Being tall makes us unique. And last, and maybe most importantly, being tall makes us unique. Being unique is something we can take pride in. I am different from everyone else on the planet. No one else is like me, and no one is like you, either. Tall people have a special situation because their uniqueness is very noticeable by others. You stand out when you're tall. So your uniqueness is accentuated. I bet some people out there only wish that their "unique traits" could stand out just as much. They may wish that they could somehow broadcast their unique traits to the rest of the world. But we don't have to do that. It comes across naturally! Us tall people don't have to worry about how we can show someone that we are unique. It is already a part of us. *team 6ft plus modafuqas |
