10 Things Tall Girls Are Sick of Hearing
Dramasian.com

As a woman who considers herself to be tall I have collected a few quips that I am sure all tall ladies are sick of hearing. Some things you may be surprised people have actually said, so here is a list of 10 things tall girls are sick of hearing.

1. " Wow! you're so tall!"

Thanks captain obvious. Odds are I've looked in the mirror a few times and understand that I am in fact tall. So congrats on making that acute observation.

2. "Good luck finding a man that's taller than you."

I actually don't need your luck but thanks anyways Sharon. If I was really that superficial, I would have a lot more things to worry about other than "if he's taller than me."

3. "I can't believe you're wearing high heels"

All I can say to that is seriously? You can't believe I'm wearing heels? I wasn't aware you had so much input in the matter of my shoe choice! I don't care if I'm 9 feet tall I'm going to wear heels if I feel like it.

4. "Can you move over please, I can't see"

Dude I'm sorry that my height is affecting your view but there's not much I can do about it, besides I ain't apologizing for the natural gift of height the Lord blessed me with.

5. "All tall people stand in the back. That means you too _________."

Great. Another picture where you only see half of my face and I end up looking like this guy did.

6. "You're dress is kinda short"

Okay, but have you tried shopping for dresses in this day and age? Because you look and look for a good one that actually fits your waist and bust and it ends up looking like a shirt on you because the dresses they make these days are as short as they come. So yes Becky I'm aware my dress is kinda short.

7. "Well I'm sure you would be great at Basketball and Volleyball since you're so tall."

Lol at this one because your height actually has nothing to do with your athletic ability. Speaking from experience I can honestly tell you being tall doesn't put you in more games over your shorter teammates.

8. "Well all tall girls are so thin, I'm sure you don't have to watch what you eat."

Not only is this inaccurate, it's also crossing the line. It's pretty unfair to assume that all tall girls are happy with their body image or can eat whatever they want. And body image is different for every girl no matter her height, weight or age.

9. "Are you sure you don't need more leg room back there?"

This one actually isn't that annoying it's just a reminder that you do in fact have long awkward legs that seem to prohibit you from fitting anywhere comfortably.

10. "So... how tall are you?

Ah, yes the question. It's not that you are ashamed of your height it's that they are asking you like they have never seen someone so tall before. And this of course makes you feel like some freak/giant.


So that's that! You can jump and jump but you are never gonna reach our level. Literally.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
