If you have someone tall in your life you have probably said one of these ridiculous things to them. If you're tall then you have definitely been told some of these things. Height is more marginalized than meets the eye. Here are some things that tall people are tired of hearing:
1. "You're so tall!"
Wow, thank you for the newly found information that I haven't heard before. I don't know if I would have figured out how tall I was without you.
2. "Do you play basketball?"
No, no I don't.
3. "How's the weather up there? Haha"
...
4. "You should get in the back of the photo so everyone can fit."
Okay, but what if I don't want to? What if I don't want someone covering my chin in a picture because I'm too tall to stand in the front?
5."Where do you buy jeans for your long legs?"
The giraffe store obviously.
6. "You must be so good at sports with those legs"
No, I mostly use them to walk to the fridge.
7. "You have such long legs! Good for modeling."
Too bad you need more than long legs to model, you jerk.
8. "Your legs--"
Go ahead. Do It.
9. "How tall are you?"
There are only a certain amount of times a person can answer before it drives them crazy.
10. "You make me feel sooo short."
Um, I'm sorry... I think.
11. "I wish I was as tall as you. Not as tall. But you know, tall."
That's actually kinda rude.
12. "Your parents must be so tall!"
You don't know my parents.
