at least you're being honest about your height....
As the name implies, my identity is to remain unknown, so the information is classified
Lol now all the crazies are gone cuz they have nothing to disturb anymore π
That's not until 2032 π Maybe I'll measure my height again around then π
I don't know exactly how much it was, but he used to be probably 5'7 and now he's like 5'4. Mostly because of scoliosis. Oh wow yeah there is quite the difference there π€
Yeah, probably so π
Oh yeah I've seen the popups about that on the website, but again, it's only for iOS π
Hey, now that's like seeing the glass half empty π€ Why not round up? π
Ah right, I forgot about that crazy period of bible memory
You technically could change it when you renew your license π
how much did your grandpa lose? π
if you look at pictures of him next to other 6'1/2/3 people you'll see what I'm talking about. Take for example the recent picture of him with Prince Williams, who is 6'3 π€
Really? π¬ they must have the most users on ios then π
I haven't even explored all the features, but for one, there's this thing called Bible Intelligence π
Nah I'm right in the middle, but I round down π
God forbid I shrink to 5'11 π¨
It wouldn't be so bad if they hadn't removed the HTML capabilities, but they did that thanks to Christian/John Finger reporting the bugs in it π (don't worry, I'm not mad at him, lol)
Amen, and me too, Lizette! π
Yes, and also my height is already on my drivers license, so I can't go changing it now π€·ββοΈπ
And eg, my grandpa π
Didn't know Trump was an example though π€
What new features? π I just updated the app on my phone and if anything it's more broken than before! π¬ You lucky iOS users...π
Oh, I thought you had that extra inch on you, Henry π§π
The website has been put on the back burner π₯²
Itβs too much work to measure myself π
Yeah, told ya. There ainβt no way π but yes, posture can definitely affect it. In Jesus name that wont be me when Iβm older tho lol
Well not sure if he lost 3 inches, but it looks like 2 inches at least
3 inches I think a big part of the loss would be posture, eg President Trump π
seems like they're focusing on the app considering how much new features it has now
True, maybe not in a day, but definitely over a lifetime it can happen π
Ah, figures π I wish they would fix all the broken features of the website
It's basically always been in the evening π€ And I'm sure it hadn't always been a bad day for me when I was measured π
Yesss, finally getting some admittance π
measure again? ππ
i looked at a ruler, and yeah aint nobody shrinking by that much within the span of a day π
Afternoon/eveningish π€·ββοΈ Wow, yeah, that must take quite a day π€
Yeah I think ive been seeing those characters from your messages for a few years now π
Did you take off 7 inches or 8 inches?
When in the day have you measured? π
maybe he's been having some bad days and shrunk 3 inches π€
Fine maybe i am somewhat tall π
Btw, are you guys seeing the same stupid characters on your end that I see on the app whenever I post a message on the website with an apostrophe? π€π€¦ββοΈ
Hint: I got the 4 ft 10 by taking off the same number of inches from my real height as you took off from yours π
We wouldn't be here in this group right now if I were 5'9, I can tell you that π€¨
I don't even measure myself anymore... it's just been the same old number every time
They might shrink 3 inches if they've had a really bad day π€π€·ββοΈ
I donβt know if Iβve ever been measured in the morning π
I thought UI was shorter than that π§
I assumed people were already using their morning measurements π
UI does that mean you're 5'9 π§
Ainβt nobody shrinkin 3 inches tho
And Henry, if you're 5'7, then I'm 4'10 π
Yeah, imo, you're getting too tall if you're 6'5 or over π€
Yes, that height meme could have some bias, but hey, I'd feel awfully blessed if I was 5'10 right now π
Adjusting for height inflation isn't actually all that crazy in reality. π§ "You are typically taller when lying down than when standing up, usually by 1-2 centimeters." (Because of the absence of gravity's pull).
"As a result, you are usually your tallest when you first wake up in the morning because your spine has had hours to decompress and rehydrate overnight. As you go about your day and gravity continues to compress your spinal discs, you become slightly shorter by the end of the day."
Ah yeah, that would make sense
I think βfreakishly tallβ is closer to 7ft lol
What of Iβm actually just 5β7 π
probably a 5β10 guy made that meme
βfreakishly tallβ? i dont think so π
π§ I think googles statistics are actually pretty accurate
Inflating height is crazy π and 5β10 isnβt exactly what I would think of as βblessedβ π€ I feel like thatβs still not very tall
here's what it says if you Google it π§ "For a man, being considered "short" depends on the region and population, but generally, a height of 5'7" (170 cm) or below is often seen as short in the U.S., where the average height is around 5'9"."
Exactly... that would actually put you into the "freakishly tall" category ππ
there's also the height chart meme showing 5'8-5'11 folks say, "I'm 6'0!" Now if 5'9 guys are inflating their height to 6'0, it no longer sounds impressive. Thus, real 6' guys need to inflate their height to 6'3 or something π€ though by my own logic I guess I'm not short if I adjust for inflation π
I saw the pepe frog one, but I thought it wasn't bad saying 5'10 is blessed... until I read the other markers like for 5'6 πΆ
Look up the "men's guide to height meme" (the one with the frog). Love this one, too. Pay close attention to the 5'6 marker....*sigh*
The 5'11 vs 6'0 meme has my stamp of approval. That nails it π
Uhh, no π Care to share any?
You never seen memes like the 5'11 vs 6'0? π
Height memes? Now thatβs a new one π
Okay maybe my sources, the height memes, aren't credible π
π
I donβt think thatβs right π€ Maybe youβre not considered tall if youβre under 6β3, but I donβt think that automatically makes you short either
Ah yes, I forgot about adjusting for height inflation π€
Well, under 6' was considered short, but now if we account for height inflation, I'd say under 6'3 is short (for guys) π§
Thank you fellow short king π
Mhm, what he (UI) said π
However, we do need to ensure that we represent an adequate number of authentic short guys. Sort of how when you apply for jobs, they collect demographic data about you, even though they explicitly state they do not discriminate π
Well then, Mr Henry, I see that you present a valid argument. My apologies for any discriminatory remarks π
Why of course, I knew that, haha π
π€ SGA if an abbreviation for the group name lol
My height most likely π€ Also, quit trying to pull out fancy terms on me--I have no clue what SGA means
Then what is cutoff to be short? π€ pretty sure you guys are breaking some SGA guideline by doubting my own admission π
Oh good, cause I donβt think Iβd quite make the cut
Yeah, I wonder whatβs up with that π€
of course, everyone is still more than welcome regardless of whether they fall into the category of a "short guy", but we give special status to our fellow squirts π
Henry dude is sus π€ hasn't given any proof of his claimed short stature...
You know, those are honestly some really good reasons you gave. I feel so much better now π
Like not hitting your head on low hanging things as much, being able to reach the bottom shelf easier, and if you trip or something, the floor isnβt as far down :)
π Short people have some advantages tho
And why thank you, I thought they were quite fitting for the dilemma that we short people face π
