“Jerome never questioned my commitment again. I took my mind off the pain by reminding myself that when I’d eventually did stand up, Id’be exactly two inches closer to the stars.”
Gattaca is a great film where he does exactly this.
“You didn’t beat me that day, I beat myself.”
“Who’re you trying to convince?”
“You want me to prove it to you? I’ll prove it to you!”
“It’s not important Anton, it’s forgotten.”
“Want me to prove it to you?!”
“…I do.”
Enjoy your uncomfortable trips on a airplane.
Literally the plot to a south park episode lol
Kyle just wants to play basketball and Gerald…well Gerald wants to be the smartest mammal on Earth. That episode is hilarious.
Guys, your height does nothing for your worth. Anyone that tells you otherwise isn’t worth your time.
In an extremely literal sense, it does.
I’m not saying it’s right, but there is a reason people seek plastic surgery.
New conspiracy: short people are pushing for WFH because everyone looks the same height in video calls.
I actually ask people their heights now because I have been so surprised when I finally meet them in person and they are 12 inches off what I thought.
Keep an eye out and you will notice “tall white man” syndrome. Symptoms: extreme sense of self importance. Apparent acclimation to getting their own way. Expectation that others will pay attention to them, get out of their way, and generally bend to their will.
Some tall guys are nice of course but no one falls for their own egos like tall white guys. Being white and male is already a pretty potent combination in our culture but being tall just adds a cherry on top. You get to soar above even other white males. It really is the pinnacle of OP starting positions.
That has to do more with confidence than with height.
That’s the hypothesis, but the study is entirely about height.
False. My height multiples my worth (n * 0 = 0)
Checkmate.

I already knew I wasn’t worth my time tho.
I hate this so much.

Unfortunately it’s used a lot. Having the “perfect” height is a thing for girls, sports, even business to an extent. It’s bull. But I can definitely sympathize with people that choose to try to add inches.
But yes, it’s definitely overrated.
There are sports for which being short is better. There are girls that won’t care about height. Business? Really?
It’s like wanting a huge dick. We all would want one, but the reality is our lives wouldn’t improve almost at all.
So I have a chance, got it.
Now I’m gonna walk under that low ass table like a gremlin
For real, though.
I’m tall, but I’m not THAT tall. I already have lots of back problems, even though I always bend with my knees when I’m crouching or reaching for something on the ground.
Most of the world simply isn’t built for tall people. You might have no leg room, you might hit your head on many car door frames, amusement park rides are too small/short for you, many normal shirts fit like crop tops, and many pants fit like water-highs. Of course, you can’t forget people’s incessant NEED to announce to you that you are in fact, tall. (Gee, I haven’t noticed lol.) Forget about many long-sleeved tops, too. That’s a fun one in the winter sometimes.
It’s also really annoying to have people regularly tell you that your own personal experience with being tall is wrong. Like I’m sorry to hear that some people may wish they were taller, but it doesn’t magically make the legitimate problems that being tall causes go away. Not having those problems would be so nice.
I’m not at all saying being short is a walk in the park, but being tall isn’t always a walk in the park, either. You can be tall and still lack social skills, confidence, charisma, etc. I can promise you that. Becoming tall probably won’t fix that, either.
All I can think of when I see these pics
