Call us tiny, call us small, call us vertically inclined. Whichever you refer to us as, there is no ignoring the fact that short people face daily enemies -- very frustrating, very real enemies. Here's a taste of them for those unaware:

1. Amusement park rides.

It's a different kind of sadness when you see 12-year-olds on a super cool ride that you are not tall enough to ride. It's fine though. Really. It's OK.

2. Kitchen cabinets.

"Marge, bring me the damn Cheese Nips!" "Yeah, OK, I'll just channel my inner spider monkey, I got it no problem!"

3. Group photos.

Whether it be your first grade class photo, your eighth grade baseball team picture or a regular selfie with the squad, you're either front row or invisible.

4. Swimming pools.

If the pool is six feet deep, and I am five feet tall, then no, I cannot stand flat feet with my head above the water. The math is actually quite simple.

5. School desks.

Am I an adult learning about important sociological theories of global economic stability or a small infant being fed goo in a high chair? I'm not really sure.

6. Tall people.

Maybe you can reach the top shelf at the grocery store, put the star on top of the tree and dunk, but we can crawl under the coffee table to get that flip flop you kicked under there four months ago, so...

7. Average-sized people.

Gotta love the good ol', "I'll stoop down to your level so we both fit in the camera frame."

8. Floor concert tickets.

Not only can you see nothing, but you feel as though you are being swallowed by a mass of people. This will have you dreaming about the nosebleed section.

9. The extra person in the car.

If there are ever too many people for a car, you can bet that you will be the one offered up to sit on a lap, in the trunk or on the roof.

10. The gas pedal.

Not even a booster seat can resolves this struggle.

11. Snow.

Sorry Ma, it's a little hard to shovel snow when it's up to your nose, but I'll give it go, just for you.

12. Small spaces.

"Hey Trish, I bet you could fit in that locker." "Oh Debora, let's see if you can fit in the mini-fridge!" "Yo, Tina go zip yourself in that carry on suit case!" We get it. We're small.

13. Pants.

Your pants will never fit right. It's just a fact of life. But at least you'll be a master hem and cuffer!

14. High heels.

Just because we wear heels doesn't mean we necessarily are trying to look fancy, honestly we just need the extra height, and as a shorty, high heels become second nature. Going to dinner? Heels. Going to class? Heels. Going to the gym? Heels.

15. Elbows.

Aw, my head is the perfect armrest height for you? Want me to put a little pillow up there for some extra comfort? Perhaps one of those nice memory foam ones?

16. Armpits.

Just promise one thing. Please just make sure you put on some real nice deodorant in the morning before my head ends up in your armpit for pictures. Thanks.

17. Hugs.

Hope you don't mind my face in your gut because there's really no other place to put it. Just trying to spread the love, OK?

18. The act of walking.

This isn't a huge deal, but if you have long legs and we're walking to class together, you may have to circle back once or twice for me.
