        No I meant he doesn’t look so big from over here when he’s standing next to them. I didn’t mean to imply he looks small compared to me.

        I think this was posted on r/tall years ago. There were a couple 7 footers on there back before it got weird and toxic with angry shorter dudes.

      I have that same grin whenever I’m around guys taller than me. It’s such a weird feeling. Like when you lay face down in the grass and imagine you’re an ant.

    Dang, that Mountain’s grandfather is one dapper scoundrel. He should be in the Riviera, convincing oil heiresses that he is a prince or something.

    What’s the height of the actress? Is she “normal” size? I don’t know her name so I can’t look her up.

    The mountain’s wife is tiny. Not a dwarf, but just small.

    You think “dwarf” is offensive? What about the Dwarves from LOTR? Or the Dwarves from WoW? Or the Dwarves from OnePiece? Or the Dwarves from Norse Mythology who made Thor’s hammer? Dwarves are awesome, “little people” sounds like an even worse insult than the M-word.

    Try saying “little person” with the tone of voice you’d talk to a kitten meowing at you. And then say “Dwarf” like a Nordic guy.

      Did… did you just speedrun a comment/callout/rebuttal all by yourself, in the body of a single comment?

       

      Impressively efficient, if a bit strange.

      Honestly the comparisons you made are the point. They’re just people who are short, not a magical mythical race of non humans lmfao. THATS where the whole “little person” thing comes from.

          Sure, but there are loads of medical conditions with less than ideal names (a particularly severe structure is caused by a gene literally named Sonic the hedgehog). The clinical name might be important in a clinical setting but that’s not where most of us interreact with people. I’m just going with what I’ve known people to prefer.

        Yes but there are also folk that actually like the term. I guess default to little person unless told otherwise?

          That’s been a great rule that hasn’t failed me for nearly anything.

      Those would be mythological dwarves, not human dwarves.

      To whoever’s downvoting me, were you under the impression some human blacksmith brothers crafted Odin’s spear and Mjolnir?
