But the worst one is neck ties!! Short guys get to have awesome looking ties with nice knots in them. Tall guys have to either use a crappy/limited selection tall ties that gets waaay too thin at the top, so your knot looks just ridiculous OR you have to try and use every last inch of a normal tie and maybe get it right after the 3rd or 4th try (with practice) yet still never really get that 'full knot' look that midgets can get with one try! I mean sure we could use a lot of guys head as an arm rest when in a crowd but those midgets look way better in a tie than most tall guys!? And of course because all the girls are checking out the tall guys it makes it that much more obvious!!


Claeren.

So true. because of that, I simply don't wear ties. Ever. Totally gave up. Even at weddings.

And another thing: beds. Us tall guys are forced to buy king sized beds so that we can actually still have our feet on the bed while our heads are centered on the pillow instead of up against the headboard.
