I can't speak for everyone, but I like being so short that other people feel taller. Without short people, there would be no tall people.
Thanks ukswrath! For some reason it wouldn't come up in a regular FB search.
I hadn't thought much about a scout trooper, although I do like the look. Being able to sit would be a major plus. I will seriously look into that. And short jokes? My original post does make it sound like I dislike them, but I actually like them. Even if I've heard the same ones over and over again. "How is the weather down there?" Or how about that armrest one? It's actually hilarious to me. I'm only 16 so there's a chance of growing taller, but my mom is my height so I'm pretty sure I won't get much taller.
