Question And on the subject of short people ..

Can anyone hand on heart say theyve ever come across a short person whose never had any kind of chip on their shoulder ..

Iv certainly known one who displays half a potato sack - i dunno maybe its spured him to greater things , (doing better than me afterall)


Forgive me for being 'shortist'

I must admit I do find this to be the case, however the fat ones are normally pretty nice.

I'm short, when I get p1ssed off its short man's syndrome but when a taller person gets miffed it's the norm.

To be fair I do hate everyone lol.

i have been likened to pancho off dirty sanchez as according to my so called mates i have moderate short man syndrome,i think that its like dogs little ones are snappy little buggers.
im 5'5" and yes it would be nice to be a few inches taller but at 38 my growing days are long gone,unless its my waist line or chin.you cant change your family genes so just live with it.

I know a couple of short guys who don't have what my mum calls "little man syndrome", but they, in my experience, are the rare exceptions.

One of them, last time I saw him, was driving a Passat. The other used to drive a ropey Corsa.

From the age of 12 to 17 I found it to be the other way round. Any older short arsé, out to try and impress his mates, thought I was a target. Then when they got put in their place I was the offender for 'picking' on somebody smaller.

There should be another name for males shorter than 6'. Maybe min would be more apt than men.

Napoleon complex springs to mind...

Still, at 6' tall it is nice to look down at the smaller fellas...must be a real bitch in a crowd, unless it is a crowd of porgs of course

Hmm, short blokes can be kind of snappy but they do tend to be wise....

No chip, but one of the funniest p1ss takers I have ever met and swore like a trooper and had an opinion on everything, same thing I guess

A lovely chap none the less, the best day of his life was when a new guy started at work shorter than hw was, he was made up and made sure the new guy knew it
