Shorty, smalls, short stack. Any nick name referring to my shortness is in the books for me. Probably you too if you're under 5'7". We all have some common ground that we can all relate to. Here's 11 pictures to show taller people what we go through daily:
1. Shopping for pants
Spongebob understands the struggle.
2. Quitting shopping and just going for the "cuffing" method
"I don't have time to find short jeans so I had to cuff them"-a memoir by me featuring short girls everywhere.
3. Walking with friends
One step for you is three steps for me. Remember that when you take monster strides.
4. Being an armrest for taller people
5. When you want to be intimidating but no one takes you seriously
You will be okay short one. Violence is never the answer anyway.
6. Driving
I can't drive without the seat all the way up and I need to sit as straight as possible so I can see over the dashboard. If I'm lucky, the visor will help me.
7. Short people shirts
I'm confused, short girls do what best? Not being able to reach common household items? Plus, this model looks like she's tall. Does that mean I'm going to wear the shirt like a dress? Too much confusion in one photo.
8. Swimming
I'll just be in the kiddie section where I can actually touch flat footed. Don't mind me.
9. Concerts (or any crowd setting that you have to stand in)
I can hear the music at least..
10. Group selfies
This is a trip I took to the Jersey Shore with my friends. As you can see, to fit the tall people, I am just a face in a corner. Selfie game not so strong.
11. Questions
How am I supposed to answer any of these? Seriously?
Being short sucks but you know what they say, the shorter the girl, the closer to hell.
Get out there, scare some people and assert your shortness!
