Ask a Little Person

Does it bother you if people automatically grab things for you that you can't reach?

 

[Jadak]

*sigh* That video just me me giggle, suppose that confirms I'm an asshole. Oh well. Also somewhat amused of my lack of awareness that it was an awareness month. Although now that I am aware, rather indifferent to it.

 

[retyopy]

what is the capital of Germany?

What? You said any question.

Do you hit your head on stuff often? I'm somewhat tall and I always manage to do it, even when I think I'm paying attention to what I'm doing. One advantage of being short would be not smashing your head so often, or at least it is in my mind.

 

[Double A]

Do you actually give a damn if someone calls you a midget or dwarf?

Also, what is your opinion on Tyrion Lannister?

 

[drisky]

Surprisingly a repeat tread but I'll ask the same question I asked then for a second opinion.

How do you think your respectability and ability to start relationships compares to a male that is just plain short (like 5'4"). Would you say its worse, better, or about the same.

Cake or pie?

Pie

How would you feel about a videogame in which the protagonist is a dwarf or midget? It goes without saying there would be media outrage, but would that offend you or would that be a "step forward" of sorts? Would you be interested in playing it and if so, what kind of game or genre do you think it should be and what tone should it have (eg - serious, humour, etc.)?

Is this something you have ever thought of or even fantasized about?

An FPS would be an interesting take on that subject. but i had not even thought about it. it probably wouldn't really offend me depending on how it comes across.

Do you watch any of the shows that depict little people?

Like the Little Couple, Pit Boss and that new wrestling show Hulk Hogan has just started?

Sometimes, it depends how preachy they get. That is one thing I hate, people who become over offended at the little(hehe) things and then get too preachy.

Does it bother you if people automatically grab things for you that you can't reach?

Does it Bother you when people hold the door for you? it's kind of the same, just things that people do to help other people.

I would say that is a Low content post.

Berlin. And i do in fact know who you are on this forum

Not really, but i do constantly have the fear of gouging my eye out on a corner of a table or something.

Not at all, but some people really do so i probably wouldn't use it around LPs. I have never seen GoT.

Same person. I just made another one so I didn't have to necro the last one.
I would say it is worse. I have tried with ladies that i thought i would have a chance with. every time i got rejected. i dont know if it was the Dwarfism or i just misread signals because i didn't take an exit poll.

How exactly do you drive?

Also, ever get picked on?

 

[smearyllama]

What do you like on your pancakes?
Do you enjoy baking?
What country would you love to visit? (I guess where you're from would give perspective)
What movies do you enjoy?
What are your thoughts on handheld gaming?

Just some various questions in general.

Also, are people ever condescending to you because of your dwarfism?

If I could (not 16) with pedal extensions.
As I said above I live in Iowa so everyone is pretty open. I swear we're not ALL Hicks, i swear.

 

[Bohemian Waltz]

Do you eat significantly less than people without dwarfism? If so, do you find it troublesome to dine in a society that caters to relative to your stature such large portions of food?

Do attendants at amusement parks throw out the 'must be this tall to ride' rule given your situation or do they stick to to it?

Peanut butter and cinnamon sugar
Yes, very much.
Canada because of Poutine(French fries, gravy, Cheese curds, and Sometimes bacon.) You thought america was the place for fatty foods.
District 9, The Other Guys, Watchmen, a bunch of others i can't think of right now.
It is kind of dying, but Aftermath for iOS is pretty good.
Of course, there will always be ass holes.

I really want to try Poutine. It sounds amazing.
Speaking of Canada, what languages do you speak?
Any besides English?

I can do without a lot of food but when presented with a large i can put it all away. One of my friends once said "Damn, you eat a lot for a Midget."

I'm in French 2 myself.
I guess I am preparing for the great poutine quest.

 

[Lang901]

Have you ever tried using Kinect? If so, did it work?

I don't know, it was just a random question that popped into my head!

Yes, but i can't do it with my family because the camera adjusts too high.

Are dragons the most badass thing ever? Like, in the history of time?
