Do you look down on people?

fr336

And if you do, do you feel bad about it? I do subconciously sometimes and mainly feel quite bad about those ones. However when I'm in a right mood and everything is amplified I feel like a king compared to some of the utter pointless morons I encounter.

I'm too small.

Tonyandthewhale

Not usually, I'm quite short.

EDIT: Fuck you eternal!

You're on After Hours. Are you sure?

I'm tall so yes. Grovel minions!

ytpe2r5bxkn0c1

Any body lower than 5 11 and I look down on them. But I look up to those taller than me.

I know my place.

incrisis

I am only 6', but taller than quite a few, so I have to look down so that I don't look like I am being aloof..

I tend to look wistfully into the middle distance.

Says who?

Sheep Lover

Yes, from a short analysing of a persons behaviour and demeanour I can determine if they are of a lower class peasantary that is rife in this country.

MonkstownHoop

At 6'1 generally yes

The_Valeyard

Yeah, once I'm on the second floor looking down.

These height jokes are actually amazing.....I'm currently in A&E because my sides split open. Original genius, god bless you all.

fineso.mom

I wouldn't condescend to look down on anyone. I'd be above that sort if carry on and would not think much of people who would. In fact I would look down on them. ;-)

CJ Haughey

You can look down on alot of people from a plane.

To be totally honest, I used to think I was better than some people, education, job wise etc.

Not sure what made me turn around and realise I am no better, and who gave me the god given right to think I was different.

I was angry with myself for thinking it, but now I realise with pride I am the same as anyone else.

You cannot tell by looking in at someone what's going on in their life.

So all humans are equal in every way? I agree on a basic respect level of race, gender, sexuality etc etc but above and beyond that? Some people are clearly more intelligent than others, want to do more good or simply lead a more interesting life than others. You're putting yourself down, you're not the same as any other old tom dick or harry simply because you're human.

Aongus Von Bismarck

I'm 6' 2" in my bare feet so I tend to be able to look down on people from a physical point of view. I find myself drawn to other intelligent, generous and perceptive people, so no looking up or down required. I cannot abide petty jealousy and resentment. I'll therefore silently judge endlessly negative people.

Yes, you ! :pac: :pac: joking of course.

I think it's natural in humans to do so at sometime in their life. I don't think its healthy or nice to do it as a rule constantly though or be a snob, however...

There is a guy I work with who on the face of it is a nice person yet at work is the most useless tool you could ever encounter and will put a lot of his effort into getting out of work or finding ways around getting lumbered with the most technical aspects of what we do so somone else will have to do it. He is at the job longer then anyone else and is also older and more experienced, yet he is universally considered a pure idiot. It's impossible not to look down on somone like that at times when they themselves put themselves in that position but I try to look on everyone the same unless they go out of their way for me to do so otherwise, regardless, of gender, background, education, I try to treat everyone with respect and as an equal.

When I see bedraggled examples sucking on Linden Village at 9 am on the streets and cooking up behind cars, I do have a tendency to feel slightly better about my own personage.

I laughed...

I deleted my post because I felt it was too serious for the topic with all the jokes, I. Felt it would fall flat....

I have had the sh 1t kicked out of my life over a 5 year period, it taught me that not am I no better, but I am the same, I assumed I was so different, but being the same makes me feel good,

Kinda hard to explain, I think....

There was the whole necknomination thing... I looked down at those idiots and shook my head at society and how we could have gotten here, until I realised that it was possible for the gene pool to self cleanse.

You must have woeful trouble tearing yourself away from the mirror in the mornings, my good man.

As a lanky yoke myself, I do look down. But I've come to realise that there are two ways of doing so.
Actually bending your head = A grand chap.
Just lowering your eyes = A ****.

Occasionally when I meet the the odd skanger from Dublin. They'd have to be a real hardcore certified skanger though before I could even attempt to look down on them.
