Being touched
Ok, my pet peeve isn't exactly getting touched. I'm a wee bit on the shorter side or tall. (Not quite five foot) and people somehow have taken this as a sign that somehow I won't get annoyed If they jokingly pat me on the head or rest their elbows on it. (generally these days I take that as a sign that they won't in return get mad if I return that with a swift elbow to the ribs)No You cannot erst your pint there. Unless when you say that you really mean spend an evening in casualty after I've smashed it into your face

I don't actually like it when people try to lift me up. Its not cute. Or funny. I will bite.

Actually short jokes in general, or having to pre-empt people and make them myself. I'm not a fucking midget -3 inches too tall actually. The weather is not different down here and if I need something high up I'll get one of you lanky gits to fetch it. I swear to god if one more person asks if I'm going to kick them in the shins I'll kneecap them. Clearly I've noticed that I'm short so please don't point it out to me again. I'm an angry little woman at the best of times. Don't make it worse...

Punch 'em
In the nuts.
You're the right height for that.

Or if you live in Amerker then taze them in the nuts.

...
I wish we were allowed to taze people in the nuts.

Would probably be against damn health and safety though.

I can relate.
I'm only five foot two. It's become a running joke about how little I am.

I'm not, though. I'm curvy, slightly chubby even. Just because I lack height and struggle to get things off of high shelves doesn't mean I'm a midget.

Do you also get the line
"While you're down there love...."?

Why is it tall people always pick on short people, their so much fun (in many ways) and besides, being tall is just as bad, always knocking your head into things.

In case anyone wonders, I'm average height, 5'11".

170cm

*translates*

About 5' 6"

I was short at school
So I used to get this a lot, then I had a growth spurt towards the end and came out as average. Same with my weight, was anorexic until I made it to uni, only now am I starting to put on weight (doffs cap to beer).

I'm a late bloomer.
