"Aw, you are the perfect height for an armrest," as many taller people say to short people. However, I am actually not your arm rest no matter how short I might be. Here are a few common occurrences that happen to short people that tall people might not have experienced, and a few ridiculous sayings I have also heard along the way.
1. Laundry
Laundry becomes a complete exercise and those socks in the bottom are just going to have to stay until next time!
2. Hood of the car?
Well, it's nonexistent to us!
3. Shouldn't you ride in a car seat?
Yeah, so I can look like this?
4. Clothes shopping is a nightmare!!
The view we often see every time we try on pants.
5. Always having to run with your friends when they are walking
"Wait for me! I have short legs!"
6. "Can you reach that for me?"
We have all done it before...
7. Your feet don't touch
When everyone else's feet touch and yours don't.
8. Always losing your friends in stores
It might be easier to squat and look below the racks to find who you need rather than trying to look over the racks.
9. The driver's seat is all the way up while driving and must be pushed back in order to exit the vehicle.
10. Concerts
They are a no go if you planned on seeing the concert.
11. When the pool says "5ft"...
12. When your tall friends say they're short and you wonder what they think you are.
13. For the love of God, I am not "cute and little"
14. Everything becomes a dress
15. Knee high boots are more like thigh highs.
16. If I had a dollar for every time someone asked me how tall (or short, lol) I am..
17. "Hold on, let me grab my step stool.."
18. Having that one utensil to help you grab things off the top shelf.
It may be a reacher, a knife or anything else we may find!
19. When your friends want to pick you up for pictures and realize you're not as small as your height!
