--- Quote from: Whipstitch on 14 Feb 2008, 12:18 ---It is somewhat unfortunate for those of us who are healthy and still rather short though. I'm only 5'8", but as I once jokingly told my 6'8" Russian friend, for being an Irish-Mexican mutt I am huge. :roll:

Did he tell you to cry some more?
I didn't know Irish people were short. Scottish people seem to be frikkin huge, so I suppose that balances out for me. I am 6' and growing some, probably hit 6'1" or 6'2".

Of course not, that would have been rude, especially considering he's the one who brought up height in that coversation to begin with. I rather like being my height; he bitches about being tall more than I've ever bitched about being short (besides I'm not even really -that- short; nobody makes a big deal about being 5'8" unless you're a football or basketball player, in my experience). I wear a medium or a large and he gets stuck either paying a fortune or wearing t-shirts that say goofy crap like "Big Dog" on the front. 5'8" is roughly the median height between American women and American men once you average them out; I live in this wonderful world where I can reach virtually everything yet have plenty of legroom on air planes, whereas he lives in a world where sitting in the back of a sports car requires coaching from a contortionist. On the other hand, modeling typically requires you to be around 6 foot or so at least (not that it'd be an option for me even if I was tall, but just sayin'), because height is considered part of the beauty ideal in the United States, so there's pros and cons however you look at it.

That was a TF2 reference, there is a giant russian in the game, and I couldn't help imagining your friend as him. One of his battle cries is "Cry some more!"

Me either! I have never had a problem with it.
Lunchy I am really sorry to hear about your boyfriend. Don't worry too much about it, though, because there are lots of fish in the sea. Just let us know if you need a shoulder to cry on in the interim.

Ah, never really played TF2 much; FPS games have never really been my "thing."
