Don't be alarmed when your plane lands and you see the worlds smallest guillotine being wheeled out on the tarmac.

The stupid part is they're so rich they could do both. At least MacKenzie Scott is trying to fix some stuff without also doing idiotic stunts (afaik).

people do get kind of fixated on certain words or phrases and the one recently that's bothering the hell out of me is "indeed" and it seems like if you're the type of person who uses indeed even once, you're going to use it 100 times in your writing or podcast or whatever. Also, is 275 not like a crazy weight for someone at that height?

I'm 5'11" and just hit 250 as a result of not changing my habits enough after getting my thyroid gamma-rayed into settling the gently caress down. Gaining 25 pounds has been a whole new level of discomfort and self-loathing. I have to imagine that another 25 would be worse. I should be at about 180.

But in America, 275 at that height is not really all that unusual, no.

If the people who come after me do not burn me in a wicker man for a variety of reasons, but most of all because they have highly advanced politics that I cannot understand, then I am going to be very disappointed.

I'm Royce height and I'm unhappy being this close to 160. I'd prefer to be 150 or under.

275 at 5'10 is 100% tuna can territory.

If you a shrimp and your height is below the word Royce on the front trim of a Rolls Royce, you're Royce-height. If you're a tall drink of water who's height is above the word Rolls, the you a Rolls-height.

The UK uses a very confusing system of weights and measures.

Short people get to buy clothing off the rack, so screw them.

I can only wear jerseys and custom tailored shirts because no one makes a slim cut for a 24" neck and 41" sleeves. Somehow clothing companies decided if you're 6'5" you must weigh 480 pounds and only like the colors white and pink.

They also assume that if you have less than a 32” inseam you must have a 45” waist.

Can confirm every retailer thinks very tall people are exclusively fat as poo poo.

And planes are too small.

And bouncers hate you.

But all the good sex with attractive people makes up for it plenty!
