I thought those remarks were just going to be mildly insensitive, but wow.

VGA, I'm going to advise you to never go back to that twitter account ever again. Unfollow it. If this is really something that bothers you, it's best if you don't expose yourself to the idiocy of people who should not ever matter to you.

Like, I would never follow a twitter account that was all about bashing Christianity (I'm sure there are plenty). I get enough of that everywhere else, I don't need to force the hate upon myself. It's masochistic.

I need to remind you, man, that there was only one time EVER when Twitter mattered, & that was during the Iranian elections when literally every other method of sending information out of the country was blocked by the government. That was the ONLY time Twitter has ever been worth considering. This is not that time.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Look hard enough, and you'll find people bitching about any possible trait a person has. It's not the trait itself that causes issues, it's the person with a personal problem who expresses it in a simplified fashion.

This needs more exposure. I can't believe this is a thing. I don't have words for this kind of stupid.


For the record, I'm 6'2 and all it means to me so far is that every ******* thinks I'm around to reach **** for them. Also, nobody ever talks about the huge problems with having large hands. There are many many basic things I cannot do easily, like using touchscreen phones or cleaning cups. There are a lot of benefits to being smaller.

And everyone of those people saying "Short people _____" was really saying "I'm insecure and don't know how to deal with it so let me voice it on the internet."

Is it bad that I want to punch every last one of those women in the face?

Height does have advantages, like reaching things. Looking down on shorter people is always fun. It can even be an advantage in a fight to be taller and have longer limbs. I am only 6 feet tall, but I wish I could be a freakish giant like AI. Now that would be great.

I am surprised that Twitter account has not been flooded by short people bashing tall people or very stupid women yet. Even an angry mob is not out of the question. If those are all serious comments, I just lost a bit more faith in people, if I could have even further negative points in that category.

And on the subject of those women, there is another side of this. Have any of you ever heard a man say that he likes women taller than him? I have never heard of such a thing. I guess it fits with what seems to be the general female desire that the man be bigger.

It's actually not uncommon for short men to bag up tall women, or women around the same height, simply because the women are charmed by their confidence. It happens.

Also because not all women are so shallow as to write off everyone shorter than them. Not that I'm accusing you of saying that, but I do feel that it needed to be said.

I won't even bother reading what I'm assuming is just idiotic posts and trolling. Ignore it.
