Tall Jokes - Dealing With Jokes About Your Height
Writing on behalf of tall folks - we know we are tall and it doesn't make us feel any better to be constantly reminded of it. I am sick and tired of being told "Is it cold up there? So how tall are you anyway?" OR "Was your mother a giraffe? If I were obese, I can't believe people would say to me "Wow you are fat - how much do you weigh?"
I can't say that I enjoy being considerably taller than most others in my company and it must be particularly difficult for ladies to deal with, especially when with shorter men who are embarrassed by a ladies height. Combined with issues like not being able to get clothing that fits, not being able to fit into cars, aeroplanes etc, having bad backs and more - being extra tall has many drawbacks.
Written in the hope that readers will be sympathetic to the plight of tall people, maybe folks will think twice before they next ask "How's the weather up there?". We know we are unusually tall - please don't keep reminding us!
For some innoffensive jokes about tall people and lots more on the joys sorrows of being tall, please go to being tall. Learn also how to cope with what life has to throw at the tall person - we have to be above tall jokes. Forgive the pun, but it's not always easy being tall.

Standing Tall $11.99 “Lots of people have dreams, but C. Vivian Stringer is the dream—a coalminer’s daughter who believed when her Poppa told her there was no obstacle she could not surmount. And she lives that dream, teaching others to rise up to meet challenges, turning underdogs into champions again and again—on and off the court. This is the quintessential American story, of a woman and of a family pulling together against the odds. Standing Tall offers an important message of hope to so many.” —John Chaney, Hall of Fame college basketball coach At a time when heroes are too rare, C. Vivian Stringer sets a shining example. She has time and again shown character, fortitude, and heart, both on and off the hardwood, and in the face of unbearable loss. In Standing Tall , she shares her remarkable life story, inspiring us to find this fortitude within ourselves. “Work hard, and don’t look for excuses,” Stringer’s parents told her, “and you can achieve anything.” But her faith and perseverance would be tested many times. A gifted athlete, she had to fight for a place on an all-white cheerleading squad in the sixties. In 1981, just as her coaching career was taking off, her fourteen-month-old daughter, Nina, was stricken with spinal meningitis. Nina would never walk or talk again. Still grieving, Stringer brought a small, poor, historically black college to the national championships—a triumph hailed as “Hoosiers with an all-female cast.” In 1991, her husband, Bill—her staunchest supporter, the father of her children, and the love of her life—fell dead of a sudden heart attack, but that same year, she led yet another young team to the Final Four. Through these dark times and others—including her bout with cancer, shared here for the first time—Stringer has carried her burdens with grace. Given her history, it was no surprise that she led her team to respond to Don Imus’s slurs with dignity and courage. Standing Tall is a story of quiet strength in the face of punishing odds. Above all, it is an extraordinary love story—love for the game, for the players she has coached, for her close-knit family, and for the husband she lost far too soon. It will resonate long after the last page. From the Hardcover edition. |
