I just realized you're tall, but you're being a white knight for short guys. Could have fooled me!

[POOHEAD189]

Too bad Tom Cruise can't see people defending him!

[POOHEAD189]

I have an internet friend I've known for 7 years I'm really good friends with, and he's having girl troubles I'm trying to help him with. I can't believe I never realized that the reason might be because he's 5'6...

Poor Adam.

@Xandrya

Hahah I learned how to white knight from the best.....@POOHEAD189

But hang on how do you know I'm tall?

@POOHEAD189

Tom cruise is one of the few short guys who dont need defending, he's a rich arrogant asshole, whos always gotten female attention regardless of his wacky religion.

@Dynamo Frokane

She's done her research?

I know he's really crazy, but I never knew he was an asshole. Then again I never paid much attention to his life outside movies. I think he's a good actor though. I do love how they do such fancy camera work to make him seem as tall as everyone else lol.

Let the lady speak for herself, Sir Lancelot.

No he's definitely an asshole, and this is coming from someone who enjoys his movies more than most. A few Good Men, interview with a vampire, collateral, rain man, edge of tomorrow are some of my favorite acting performances period. But the guy is a pompous condescending ass, and I'm not even certain that's entirely to do with Scientology. Have you not seen this?

LOL, I was joking with you, not for her :P

I never did see that before. I find it more worrying that he believes prescription medicine is a false way to help people than him getting mad. He did seem fairly pompous, I agree.

@Dynamo Frokane

He's right. You posted your picture with Tim Westwood. The name drop implies he's at the very least a well-known person. I looked him up, and he's a DJ, and also 6'4. You're standing by him and at most, you're an inch or two shorter than him.

[SleepingSilence]

Is the current political debate is about how tall a man is and his overall appearance?

@Scarescrow

Yes. That and height is a social construct. I actually feel like an 8 foot tall being.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

You are breaking the illusion, @SleepingSilence. We cannot allow people to perceive the world for better or worse, yet must instead all resume assuming everyone and everything is perfectly normal. Otherwise, they might need to be confronted by heightist opinions who will inform them they are not, in fact, eight feet tall and that would cause extreme damage to their character that they cannot legitimately recover from. It would end them and their life, do you understand?

@Xandrya

Holy shit, I don't know weather to be flattered or freaked out, but thank you for taking enough of an interest to sleuth that.

[Xandrya]

My main line of work has been somewhat investigative in nature, so if I have a chance to play detective, you can bet I'll take it.

[POOHEAD189]

Yes. That and height is a social construct.

@SleepingSilence

Uh, wut.

You think I'm fucking kidding? Well I mean I was...but...

>the curse is sarcastic bluntness and not real aggression. Just saying to avoid that future conversation.

[POOHEAD189]

@SleepingSilence Oh, people's perceptions of height. Like how me being 5'11 is average but a woman being 5'11 is intimidating or unattractive? (To some guys I know at least).

So a Volcano erupted 4 times in Bali, Indonesia and canceled over 400 international flights. If we weren't going to talk about the Egyptian shooting, how about this? About 59,000 people are stranded in Indonesia atm.

[Penny]

Volcanic eruption? You mean crooked Hillary!

[Kratesis]

Over/under on one allegedly corrupt western politician getting more comments than four volcanic eruptions and one of the largest terrorist attacks in history?
