Just tell me how tall you are.
for context if you combined the population of next 3 towns it would still be less than 40,000 people.
and I've been in physical therapy for years so these number are accurate/official.
right now I'm 5'11.5"
(I was 6'4" but due to neuromuscular scoliosis I only hit that 2 times in as many years so, I count it as 6'2.5 as that was my standing height at any given point any given day)
back when I was 6'2.5"
went 4th of July mattress shopping 18 of the either 32 or 33 men (can't quite remember) I saw there were as tall or taller.
it's about a 3% chance to be 6'2"
(I am not a statistics major correct me if I'm wrong) but hitting a 3% chance 18 times is something like a 0.00000000644593109% chance.
about 2 times less likely than winning the jackpot in the lottery.
or put another way I had a 99.99999999355406891% chance of that not happening when I walked in the store.
or when I went to a club near the campus (still 6'2.5 then) I looked like a middle schooler got lost and wandered in.
out of the about 200 guys I was chest height to most of them,
I was only not shorter then 4 of them.
stuff like this happens every time I go outside.
I know what you are going to say "your making this up:, "your crazy", "that's impossible"
and I agree.
it
SHOULD be impossible.
and having to deal with being screwed over by things with 100 million to 1 odds on a daily basis anyway is half of what drove me crazy.
that's why I don't want to give a number people will say you're fine and move on.
being 5'11.5" is not the problem. being in a situation where 5'11.5 buys you what 5'1 gets you almost everywhere else is.
being a college age man that looks like a middle schooler next to the other college age men(and the fucking highschoolers that use the ymca weight room)
is the problem.
I'm not going back outside till I'm tall enough to look like an adult next to other 20 something's
or they all have gigantism induced heart failure (or whatever it takes to fix what the fuck ever is wrong with here.
