Today, I'm 4ft9 "tall" and I always have trouble reaching things that are high up. It's my birthday, and I got three footstools as gifts. FML

If it's any consolation I'm 6ft 3 and have to crouch in the shower if I want to wash my hair. Short isn't so bad.

being short isn't as bad as being tall. I'm 6'5 and i can barely fit in to most cars, i always have to duck through doorways, people are pressuring me to play basketball even though i hate it, and i have to custom order my shoes because my feet are so big. yeah being able to. reach high up places is nice but the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages here.

Short people have to have all their clothes tailored to fit. And then you have the jackasses who try to use your head as an armrest...

Oh man I'm the same height and I would've been so happy to get that! One for my kitchen, one for my bed, and one for my bathroom!! They would've saved me money getting me that for my birthday lol besides it makes their funny gift idea backfire on them since you know you're going to use it.

Don't get too UPset OP. Sounds like you're a little too UPtight.

Being short isn't so bad! You have more of an advantage in many ways! Happy birthday by the way!

That's insulting yet kind of humorous. I like your friends. Lol, no worries op, being tall isn't all that great either.

I think OP doesn't wanna be really tall like some of these comments seem to be implying....I think she just wants to be of average height..

I'm 4'11" tall and I feel you. I'd put all three footstools to good use tbh lol
