Dyskolos

Hehe, yeah. i have that as a reflex. ducking whenever i go through a door. because i bumped my cute lil bald head way too often and learned the hard way :) But given the choice, I’d rather be shorter. like 1,6m or so. That’d be optimal.

Oh yes…in some buildings, where the ceiling is very close to my head, I feel very cramped and hate it. Had to move through cellars where I had to basically crouch. Ugh.

Totally tired. And they’re Mostly exactly into the very same thing, they so despise publicly. “The hub”…bet this douche uses it more than the Lil hero here.

Oh yes…if I’m alone noone ever talks to me (resting bitch-face-syndrome), but when I’m shopping with wifey, I get asked at least once per trip to fetch shit off a shelf.

But also yes, exclusively women or handicapped men. A “normal” guy would probably rather die than ask another guy for help.

Wifey rarely asks though, she actually prefers a step-stool or whatever before asking for help.

😁

I lold at the last one 😁

But seriously…beside the silly “men shall be tall” (why even? To protect others from lions?) There aren’t many benefits to being taller than average.

And my largest downside: I’d love a woman that’s taller than me. But there aren’t many…

Phhht it’s not that much of a diffe…ugh…😵

Lol. But here, have some actually great benefits I wish I had:

• The bed is long enough (u don’t need a custom made)
• cars are great (u don’t need to imitate a giraffe to half-assed see the world outside, or take the seat out)
• you can kiss a woman while… Errr…you know. (Not trying to pull her nose out of your bellybutton first)
• clothes actually are your size (you dont need 12xl shirts, just so the arms fit but you can also go camping with your tent)
• airplanes are cheap (u dont have to buy 1st class just to not fold yourself in the middle)
• doors are OK (u dont need to duck. Which u learned through pain)

But there are also benefits…like having a better oversight over crowds and. Err…yes.

I actually did not know nor ever noticed in TNG. Now I will eagle-eye that the next run 😁

Though, if I were bound to a screen to do the things and the whole ship is steady in flight, touch would be fine. But in a car, where I need to focus on everything around me EXCEPT the touchscreen, well…

At the very least b4 bed…though I love the peace the whole year through 😁

For some things those might work more efficient than drugs though. That’s a plus, yes?

NO!

You know, there’s also a thing called “do not disturb” (it’s always on with me and only wifey can get through).

Or the hardcore “airplane mode”.

I’m sorry man, of course you can!

But in case you’d get it cheaper suddenly, without being asked, you could maybe just throw away the difference or donate it to an evil cause?

You Americans…I just order my shit wherever I want and have it tomorrow for the best price.

Last inspection date: July, 12, 1843.

…and?

Well the car is brand new and will probably last a while. I already downgraded from some “premium” brand to an “entry-level” car, just to have nothing but android-auto and a screen. AC and shit like that is good old knobs and buttons.

Previous car had nothing analog at all. Then the cockpit broke and it was blank. Couldn’t even see how fast I was going. Replacement was 6000 moneyz. And because the HUD also broke, it was another 5000 moneyz because the whole windshield had to be replaced. Also took a week. That made my left nut explode and sell that piece of shit (that I loved to drive, beside THAT)

Yeah it’s total dogshit. Th e only decent-ish, half-assed solution for me is using android auto (with a dedicated, isolated phone with a dummy account). Using my own voice-command-app and sygic for navigation. Of course I couldn’t control much of the car, only what odb offers.

But I’m not locked in to the proprietary car-shit. Had that once with a fucking “premium” brand’s top-model and was so pissed at it. Even cars got enshittified.

Funny: android auto forces me to make pauses while using it “for my safety”, but it’s shit crap that forces me to use damn touchscreens in a car. While driving. Also according to AA, passengers don’t exist 😁

Despite attempts to reduce driver distraction by enabling select voice commands to activate things like the air conditioning or change a radio station,

You know what worked great and didn’t distract? Haptic buttons and knobs. I don’t know what I can buy when my current car dies. I don’t want all this shit again.
