Low movers are pretty funny creatures.
You could secrete little miniature versions of things around your workplace and see how he reacts.

I had a friend like that, 5'3 and was a great person.
Once we all went out he couldn't shut his fuckin mouth. HAD to prove himself/demand respect from everyone.
I avoid those people.

Ugh, being fat and tall means these people tend to try to pick fights with me. They never hit me but it's still fucking annoying when some bald midget starts sizing me up for no reason at all.

Well to be fair, short people don't automatically get respect like tall people do.

How much shorter than you can he be? You are 5'2 must mean he is 4'11 if he thinks you are tall. 5'2 is the size of a full grown woman around my parts

im not 5'2, he is. just seems to me a relatively large proportion of short people seem to have really bad attitudes especially when in positions of 'power'. maybe theyve had a hard time due to their height fuck knows but it doesnt make it right to be a total twat.

am i wrong in thinking all people should treat people with respect, have some basic manners? does being a 'boss' mean you can be a twat? i can take being told off no problem but i dont take too well to being treated with no manners or respect.

i'd smack him into next week if he spoke to me like that on the street the jumped up little shit. thing is i like the job, jobs are hard to come by at the moment, and i'd be stupid to react.

i consider myself to be able to look after myself in a physical confrontation but im respectful, well mannered, pretty unnassertive, might even be seen as soft to some but when i go off i really go off but i would never instigate a confrontation without good reason, but i will if provoked and that cunt is provoking me.

got to stick it out, gain the experience and good reference, line myself up with another job when it suits me and bring that midget down in front of others on my last day in work.

Well, I don't know if what you said is true or not ( I am of average height), but I will tell you something though.

Some short people really do have an annoying personality. I don't know if it's because people treat them without respect first so they turn annoying, or if it's because they are annoying first then people treat them without respect. It's just something that I have consistently observed.

Like you, for example (by the way I am not trying to humiliate you in public or anything, I am just being frank. Besides, you did voluntarily posted your height on the boards so it's not like it's a secret). You have a really really really bad attitude, and you are extremely annoying. And I can back this up with examples. In this one thread, I was just minding my own business and all of sudden you just came in with a full post of "chinks", without provocation from me whatsoever. This other time, you said Asian girls have "greasy black hair", which is both extremely nasty and ungentlemanly thing to say. This other time ArgonPlasma was saying some AK-49 was a good weapon and you went all bitchy like and went "niggah please", which was both rude and annoying as shit (you should have been straightforward and said, "that is bullshit, argon", which would have been less annoying). Then this one time, some guy was insulting me in my thread, then I warned him to stop or I would ignore him, then you went (without provocation, no less), "shit guys, I think she's serious".

Like serious dude, you are hostile, annoying, and you have an extremely bad attitude. So, you might want to think about this some more before you convince yourself it is your height that makes people dislike you.

WAN that will shut his small ass up. On Bang Brother they fuck this midget girl and when he was paying her he held the money up in the air and the little bitch was jumping up and down trying to grab the money it was the funniest thing I ever saw on Bang Brothers

Actually, I am not mean/rude to people just because of their height. If I am ever mean/rude/nasty, you can be sure it's because they are mean/rude/nasty to me first.

Now the question is, did you start noticing all this before or after you knew my height?

1. You called me chink before I knew you even existed.
2. After that, I started to pay attention to your posts. Then in the sex and affection (I believe?) forum I found your height.
3. That's not even the point. I do NOT think less of a man, just because of his height, or that I attributed bitchy-ness to his height. He needs to be exhibiting annoying traits of his own accord.

Well it really is the point, because regardless of how you think you judge people, there still might be a subconscious negative reaction (and you have made your feeling on short people known on numerous occasions). Either way the examples you posted are pretty poor. Complaining about my racism on totse? Nigga pleez.

For the topic at hand, I have no idea. I don't remember a time when I wasn't short for my age, so I can't comment on the effect my stature has had on my personality; who knows what came first. All I have is a general 'feeling' that some people automatically don't give me as much respect because I'm short (I'm quite a different person IRL), or that some people expect me to act subordinately for the same reason. Can't directly substantiate this, but IIRC there have been studies that show people automatically respond more favorably to tall people in certain settings (job interviews, etc).

lolwut! But yes, I do feel strongly about being called a chink, just like a black person hates being called nigger... That being said, I really dont know if I hve a subconscious negative reaction to people of short stature or not. But I do know that consciously I always try not to judge people based on their physical characteristics such as height, weight, race..etc.

Really? Are they men or women? I am guessing women cause they are shallow like that. Men tend to be more mature about stuff like this.

I am guessing men do this. Well tell them to fuck off.

Sorry to have to tell you this but it's very true. In fact, women uniformly prefer taller guys.

Good for you then, not everyone is so noble.

Then I'm just a runt with a napolean complex. See how this works?
