Chit-Chat: the reason for the party season

[Lucid]

Fun sized

 

[EC]

Hell, I'm shorter than that.

 

[blue]

i'm 5'9 which is fine by me. i got confused with measurements though and thought i was 5'5 lmao

 

[Logan]

A BRITISH PERSON USING AMERICAN MEASUREMENTS

screams

nah we've always described height in imperial, everything else is metric though

 

[Esper]

nah we've always described height in imperial, everything else is metric though

I hear the Brits still weigh people with stones. That's some medieval type system of measurement there.

 

[Logan]

yep and ive no idea how heavy i am

 

[Mr Cat Dog]

I think even this is changing in the UK, slowly but surely. Nowadays I can tell you my weight in kg off the top of my head, thanks to BMI/gym stuff/doctors etc, but would have to calculate that into pounds, and then do an additional calculation to work out my weight into stone.

After Brexit, however, who knows what fresh hell we'll revert back to. Wouldn't be surprised to see penny-farthings roaming the streets in 2020, we'll be that backwards!

 

[Gabri]

I vehemently refuse to use imperial units. I'm 1.8 meters tall and weigh around 70 kilos.

 

[EC]

Is it fun being short, EC?

It became more fun in high school because that's when I stopped caring and people stopped making fun of me, lol.

 

[pastelspectre]

i'm just under 5ft. i'm funsize. also whenever i have to kiss my s/o i'll have to stand on my tippy toes.

 

[Gabri]

no idea what the hell that is

then use a converter lazybum

 

[Corrin]

You're like 5 cm taller than me then! I'm 1.75 :3

 

[blue]

i must be around 175cm then, though i've never really used that measurement for height.

 

[EC]

I feel like I've mentioned being 5ft 3in a ton here. Every other month there's a "what's your height" thread. :P

 

[EC]

I wish I was super short. Would be awesome.

What are you now?

 

[EC]

Jesus, I could fit in your pocket. {XD}

 

[Her]

i just assume everyone fits in my pocket

 

[EC]

And short people have to be stepped on by everyone.

 

[maccrash]

yeah i'm about 5'8 but this thread is making me feel better about this. actually i never felt particularly bad about this. it's a decent height.

 

[EC]

If 5ft 3in is pocket-sized, 4ft 11in is microscopic. :P
