Today, I was in IKEA, furniture shopping with my dad. He was looking at one couch that was particularly small. I said "dad that couch is for like a midget." I look over to see a midget looking at me, sitting on the same couch in a different color. He definitely heard me. FML

Hey, he was sitting in the couch, right? So he was just proving your point.

Ouch. Im ashamed even to have the same first name as you

I, being a 4'11 fully grown male (not officially a little person, the politically correct term for midget,) despise when people call me a midget.

I, being a 4'11 fully grown male despise being called a midget, though i am not defined as a little person by Little People of America (the height to be a little person is 4'10)

Don't see what's wrong. "this couch is too huge, I think it's for giants". Do you think those insanely tall ppl will get offended? I guess they'll just laugh it off. Lol. Unless you're discriminating midgets of course.

@almost every comment here Midget is offensive to them, they prefer little person. Dwarf doesn't work either, it's like walking up to a mentally handicap person and calling them a retard, which is true they are retarded but it's an offensive way to say it.

Midgets need to get a sense of humor about being called midgets. It's not like "******" or another slur. There's no bad intent behind it. Freaking Lollipop guild needs to lighten up.

U shoulda said it straight to his face. Midgets suck

What is wrong with you? Watch what you say in public next time, ok?
