    I feel like the young lads coming through from schools at the moment are all giants. I was standard at 6ft. They're all towering above me with their black shoes and white socks and short trousers. Bent over their phones, haunted.

    This sounds like a thread i of started. But not asking about guys

    ? Who is 'I of?' and what thread did they start?

    I could not contribute to that thread whatever it is as I'm not a tall female. I'm a female in the Smurfette class.

    So, I personally wouldn't troll it.

    This is very true. The younger generation are now taller than ever.

    Thanks for your post, not only true but very funny with their short pants, long legs and white socks.

    I'm 5'2" shortcake female myself are you single? Only joking...

    Yeah I was saying earlier how talented Kevin Durant with the Brooklyn Nets is. He had a bad injury. Do you remember when he used to play for Golden State?

    Anyway, I wish you and everyone else well during the lock down.

    Stay safe Disney.

    No coming out of self isolation for either of us now.

    Anyway, your thread has really helped me during being ill.

    Thank you petal
    Love the Nets! Fav team! Their talent pool is just amazing! Definitely a contender for the title next season. Hoping to go to a game or two next season to introduce my young lad to the game!

    Speaking of basketball, I just want to say Curly Neal of the Globetrotters passed away yesterday. And what's with the LeBron love? Chamberlain would still run circles around him.

    Love? What do you mean? Are you calling me love? I hope not.

    LeBron is one of the best players in the world and he gives me a wide on. Swoon...

    Thanks for your post Shady re Globetrotters... Could you tell me more about curly? I have never heard of him.

    I'm watching The Gentleman atm... So I'll be off here for couple hours.

    Pm if you like or if you post I'll look out for it after the movie.

    Thanks and take care

    Ah its a bit of craic innit. I like slagging a Dub on occasion. Hope you reported any inappropriate messages.


  • Registered Users Posts: 393 ✭✭DisneyLover


    I think it's reasonable to have a height limit, just like it's reasonable to have a weight limit.

    each to their own! we're just girls talking about height here well at least we where trying to !

    Thanks petal. Amazing how we both now have Brooklyn Nets in common.

    Yeah you told me about Tinder... Good luck with results.

    After 16 days waiting for the swab test don't be surprised if they retest.

    I wish we had the antibody test here.

    Anyway, that's for another thread.

    I'm in high risk category so at least I don't have such a wait.

    Pm me later or anytime okay

    Watching The Gentleman, so far it's very good.

    Chat later

    do ye believe in the pheromone/hormone thing, like initially your subconscious apparently evaluates a potential mates into a maybe or definitely not, then once closer (figuratively and like literally) we are supposed to shmell each others erm genetic appropriateness, i.e our bodies know that if we combined we'd make another perfect body

    seen a fair few articles on this kinda thing down through the years, (yes i was just reading the articles) and then there is the whole bodyspray conspiracy to prevent healthy breeding but thats another conversation, involving tinfoil.

    That's what I said... LeBron is one of the best players in the world and for bonus points he gives me a wide on Disney...

    Right, back to The Gentleman for me, Charlie...drool

    Pm later

    Colin Farrell first scene is hilarious, 'the only thing you can wet is your underpants son, now, go back two steps' and 'are you are Four Tops tribute act or something...' The Four Skins... '

    Pmsl here... Ah I recommend this show to everyone and only just over twenty mins in...

    Great show for lock down.

    Chat later

    (started taking off my socks during the 9 news, gave up halfway thru and now just finishing the second half)

    I believe pheromones play a huge role in attraction. You can have all the lists and requirements you want, but find yourself attracted to someone who meets none of them.

    And of course, obligatory lol.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,476 ✭✭✭✭Ush1


    Yup. And it's not something people can change like some of the men on here don't know boobs can decrease or increase depending on weight lol.

    KD is a great player deffo not the full 7 foot

    My fave tall guys would be Winston Duke and Kevin Duranddd

    Yeah but that's sh*t boobs.

    And for a new enough team too...

    I'm very jealous that's you're going over to NBA game or two, when this pandemic ends.

    I'd love to watch a Lakers game myself.

    Thanks for posting me.

    ... well the lakers.. I've jerseys for all 3

    Have you been to a Lakers game or are you backseat supporting?


  • Registered Users Posts: 681 ✭✭✭TheDenialTwist


    Speaking of basketball, I just want to say Curly Neal of the Globetrotters passed away yesterday. And what's with the LeBron love? Chamberlain would still run circles around him.

    I did reply to your post you sent me. And I was genuinely interested in hearing about him.

    It's okay, I read about Fred 'Curly' Neal in the end when you didn't respond to me. I know you can't reply to everyone.

    Sounds like he gave a lot to the Globetrotters back in the day. Fair play to the man.

    Goodnight Shady, I'm exhausted and I'm ill so finding it difficult to sleep. And I'm spending too much time on the internet trying to distract from being ill.

    Stay safe everyone


  • Registered Users Posts: 393 ✭✭DisneyLover

    No I havent yet! Only been to the other states. I will someday hopefully!

    How the hell did this thread get to 52 pages..

    The trick is to change your settings to 40 posts per page.


  • Posts: 7,712 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I’m on 61 pages. Doesn’t make it any better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,699 ✭✭✭Badly Drunk Boy


    I'll tell you why.

    The OP asked where are all the tall guys are? And suddenly a heavy influx of short guys came onto to thread offended by the thread. And saying it was total discrimination. :rolleyes:

    Trolling made the thread reach this point.

    However: if anyone does decide to set up a thread 'where are the small girls with big tits' I'll be sure to contribute.

    How could I possibly be offended by whom someone finds attractive?

    Anyone tired?
    You could make things easier on yerself if you didn't constantly repeat the same arguments, especially against 'short guys' on the thread.

    Strangely enough Joey Ramone was 6 foot 6 inches tall.
    I didn't realise he was that tall. As my Da used to refer to me, he was also a long streak of misery. (It was meant in a nice way...)
    I don't think I have watching wrestling since the eighties/nineties... So all I can say is The Undertaker... Another really tall guy
    In the 90s, young lads used to throw abuse at me, calling me the undertaker. Afterwards, I found out about the wrestler, The Undertaker. And yes, I was very tall, long coat, long hair, always dressed in black. Just like now (except the hair in cut short these days).

    Yeah, right!
    Before anyone attacks me... The database went down so my post sent three times.
    You can edit your posts. There should be an edit button which you can use to delete your superfluous posts.
    ? Who is 'I of?' and what thread did they start?

    I could not contribute to that thread whatever it is as I'm not a tall female. I'm a female in the Smurfette class.

    So, I personally wouldn't troll it.
    In fairness, you're giving out to small lads for commenting here, while you are the exact opposite (not male, not tall) but you continue. I've no problem with you on the thread (especially since I'm a tall lad who like smaller females) but let other people say stuff too, even if you don't agree.

    I'm not mad into metal, but the versions I'm into are usually of the industrial nature, no pussy-footing around:

    Thanks Shady, I can relate to techno impaired. I only learned how to fully use emoticons today from another lovely poster on here. Who took time out of his day to help me out. So thanks UF for your help today ;)

    Yes, I don't think the OP realised what a thread it would become. And I was delighted to come across it as there is a lot of serious issues going on in the World right now and all of our lives have been affected. So this thread is great fun indeed Shady :D:

    Thanks for posting me back Shady and for your well wishes. Much appreciated during this time.

    Just watched Ford v Ferrari today as I hadn't got round to seeing it. Have you seen it? I thought it was very good.

    Ken Miles was some legend car racer and mechanic, and a Brummie Villa fan, like myself... UTV

    Also, The Gentleman is another one I'd recommend if you haven't seen it.

    Stay safe Shady and keep in touch.

    Not much into racing, but I love the Dodge/Mopar range. My favorite car I owned was a Road Runner. I won many a drag race with her.

    Hope your doing well during the lockdown. It's crazy times but I survived much worse.
