The Not Happy Thread

Aren't you all like three meters tall?

 

You need climbing spikes to hit on a Swede man, even before the platform boots and the massive mohawks. Trust me, I have uncles who live out there.

 

I have just been shooed out of the living room so my sister can hoover and/or dust. In the middle of Christmas. Not after. Just at 3pm. Because people have sat in her sitting room.

 

I'm 1.65... I'm considered a dwarf! Problem is I can't get the beard right, so I'm mostly just a disgrace to my country.

 

Maybe it's just me but I prefer my women beardless. Maybe that's a shocking anglocphilic bias but... Eh, I'm happiest when the only thing on a woman I can compliment on it's luster and softness grows out her head

 

Nononono! Doesn't that make you 5'4" or something? I'm shorter than you and I am not a dwarf. I believe that's 4'10" and under.

 

Only counts if you're from Sweden - land of the giants! Otherwise I'm sure you're fine

 

There's a line between being adorably tiny and being a literal dwarf

 

I can't grow a proper beard either. Allegedly it had to do with having Native American ancestry. Either way, it makes makes Movember, play-off season and going to temple a little awkward.

 

Urgh I would trade you for that man. I have way too much hair. Not that I want like none, but I could do less with having to shave most of my body

 

My family is like half Jewish-half Jehovah's Witness. You could come hang out here where it's literally the same as every other day except I'm out of tea because I forgot nothing was going to be open today.

 

My face is pretty much the only place I've got where hair doesn't grow properly. I have to trim my chest hair at least once a week just so my shirts lay properly. And I do grow fuzz on my face, it's just thin and patchy and lopsided, so when I try to grow it out, I just look like some sort of crazy homeless guy.

 

I have learned since I was but a callow youth to just rejoice in being hairy.

 

I'm not a huge fan of body hair. Especially on me. I mean, treasure trails can be kinda sexy depending on who's sporting them, but for me personally, it makes me feel dirty.

 

For me it just makes me feel all manly Some mix of lumberjack and Viking

 

This reminded me, though it's not a not-happy per se, but yesterday I was hugging my hubby and I suddenly wished I was shorter, so I could hug him like you sometimes see in movies; the woman pressing her cheek against his chest while they're embracing each other like, without having to bend my knees.
There is something enormously cute about petite women in general, plus they can wear short skirts without looking cheap or tacky in them (only my personal fashion opinion, don't crucify me for it) and they can rock heels without having to worry about towering over everyone.

 

I can second this My ex was 6' in heels (and had bigger feet than me) and that was... Not perfect to just scoop her and snuggle.

 

It's cheek to chest for me all the time lol. Very few people in the world are short enough for me to tower over. And, often, I'm still that small even with heels Honestly though, I like being small. Sure I can't reach the top shelf but that's what chairs and other people are for. Would be nice to be tall and have legs that go for miles sometimes though. And for my neck to not hurt from looking up all the time

 

Honestly it would seem that the Eldar would make the perfect man for a woman.
Though you would have to adjust a few of his cons to pros, but other than that
no woman will ever be taller than him (or man for that matter).

 

I' 6'5". Trust me, being tall isn't always a plus. Buying clothes sucks; I can't buy an off the rack shirt without either sleeves too short or enough room in the body to shoplift a keg. Big and tall stores are just that: big AND tall, not one or the other. I went into walmart once looking for a cheap pair of blue jeans. I wear 30x36, let me know if you ever find a pair.(I usually have to order) Finding a jacket that fits is easier said than done.
I can't stand upright in the basement of my own home- 6foot clearance. Most showerheads are at shoulder height on me so I have to bend over to rinse my hair. There are lots of cars I can't drive simply because I don't fit. And probably the least of my problems is when running from the police, being taller than everyone else makes it much harder to blend into a crowd.

 

I actually do understand all that, my step-dad is 6'5", my uncle is 6'6", my step brother is 6'5"... even my mom is 6'. I'm sure being average height wouldn't be so bad for either of us (and at least I can easily hide from the cops )

 

For all the complaints short people have, they fail to see the tiny
detail that they live longer lives than the tall. The taller you are
the harder your heart has to work to pump blood up due to that
evil thing called gravity. Science is a cruel mistress, that sometimes
has truths we would rather not hear.

Be happy that you get to live, and meet all the people you have
(and will meet later on), because at they end of the day it isn't
like you would willingly want to get taller or shorter (but if you
really feel it would make you happier there is probably somebody
out there to help you out with that).
While your here enjoy the ride, since you are hurtling around in space
at 10,000 miles an hour. Just be thankful we don't live on a solid version
of Jupiter. Height won't matter when you can't move without an extreme
effort, and will tire from the activity of lifting a finger.

Remember you only get one, so make the best of it, and stick around cause we like you.

 

Looks like someone's coming back as a grasshopper.

I'm 6'5" and 275 pounds. I'm the only person I know where the cops have asked politely whether or not they could arrest me.

 

Wishful thinking?
