Having Tall Privilege (TM) means automated doors just magically open for me. It's a good perk.

Imagine my confusion when the PA lounge door doesn't open for me this morning. I nearly walked into the glass.

I mean, how *dare* this happen to me, a *tall person*
*Hand on chest*

Remember when Air Canada first introduced legroom fees? That was the beginning of the “everything’s-an-add-on” era. Tall travellers especially got the short end of the stick.

Note to the makers of cheapo wired headphones...

It is one meter from my pants-pockets to my ears. If your wired headphones/buds have a 1-meter cord, I (literally and figuratively) have no slack.

My cheapo Sony headphones have a 5-foot cord, which is plenty. I never accidentally unplug these just walking around.

Bruh I hit my head on stuff so many times today doing spring cleaning.

Why must I be both tall and spacially unaware?

Yes, I can see the top of your fridge. And yes, it is filthy. #tallpeopleproblems
In Henderson County TX, there exists exactly one pair of slacks with a 38 inch waist and a slim cut. It's over at Bealls and it's the wrong color. #tallpeopleproblems
I really wish Airbnb would let you filter by bed size. #TallPeopleProblems
BTW, I just used the hashtag #TallPeopleProblems, and I'm sure some of you are going, "What problems? You're lucky." But anybody in this world who is far outside the median suffers for it. I can't find clothes that fit, the selection is awful, the colors are drab, and it costs anywhere from 25% to twice or more than common sizes. That's only one of hundreds of everyday problems I encounter. (Airline seats, and cars too small to get into, for starters.)

Look, if you have anything remotely to do with fashion/clothing retailing, as a 6' 6" person, I BEG you to stop putting the sizes for the largest people on the bottom shelf/rod, and the sizes for the smallest people on the top shelf/rod. My aching back thanks you.
Also, I don't presume to speak for those smaller people (please feel free to share your thoughts) but this at least MIGHT be their wish as well.

My wife recently found the website 2tall.com and now my knees are hidden by shorts for the first time in ~15 years.

I used to visit the thrift store for pants that fit my waist but comically short and would make my own shorts. That style worked for a 6'6" punk rocker in the early 2000s but has only looked increasingly desperate as I push 40.

Now I can properly rock cargo shorts with my 2 kids in tow.
