I thought Irish people were short and stocky?

[Dark_Raven]

That side of the family being in the States for over 150 years, I am sure there is more than Irish in that bloodline. That side of the family is mostly of Irish decent is what I should say.

 

He's tall and stocky. He should have played football, he would have made a good lineman.

I know a guy that's 6ft 8in...He graduated from my school last year.

[Dark Moth]

I got you beat. One guy in my grade was 6' 10". But he was also pretty dang lanky.

 

I hate being medium-height. <_< 5' 8". Could be worse, though.

Looks like I'm right in the middle here. One of my friends is 6'9". " He was pretty solidly built. Played on the rugby team every year.

 

I'm right around 6' right now and I've pretty much stopped growing.

[Lucius]

I'm 6'2"

 

I scare people when they try to give me seven bucks in pennies <_<

 

I'm part irish/english/america/german... so pretty much i'm "american" altho supposedly way back one of my family was the Duke of Ireland.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

My German/Irish blood left me short, even though the males of the family are over 6'. <_<

How ungermanic of you. <_<

I thought that joke was gonna end with them ending up stoned somehow. You disappoint me. 

 

But that's a stereotype about my own people that I don't fit! Why would I perpetuate it?

 

Hey, this cake is green. Awesome. (I love you man.)

Awww, c'mon. You're not fooling me!

[Blarghagh]

Curses! Foiled again!

[Atreides]

I think after a certain point being too tall's annoying. Ducking under stuff, nothing fits etc. Stuff is constructed for medium height people. Still I'm happy I can reach the top shelves and stuff.

[Surreptishus]

The best would be to control your own size at will.

 

Go, Go Gadget Acromegaly!

"German/Irish"

 

laff

 

I guess I could call myself German/Pruss/Russian/Karelian/Swedish-Saami, but I prefer Finnish.

I prefer pure bred awesomness.

No.

 

My paternal grandmother's father was 6'8 and (consequently) a member of the Irish Guards. My father was born in 1920, so his maternal grandfather would have been born in the first years of the nineteenth century: two meters is not a mean size in those contemporary conditions.

 

[Dark_Raven]

Go go tall men.

[Qazplm]

I'm about 195 cm tall and i'm swedish.

[metadigital]

Pffft. I thought my nine-foot frame was small, considering my family are all taller than me. (Apart from a brother, who is only six-foot-twenty-four, but we don't talk about him.)

[Checkpoint]

I'm 187 cm.

[Surreptishus]

And with a height like that i could always say:

 

YEEEAH AND YA DON'T STOP

CUZ ITS ONE-EIGHT-SEVEN ON AN UNDERCOVER COP

[Checkpoint]

I say that all the time! )

 

Actually I don't, but it'd have been fun if I did.

[WinterSun]

So...the Londoner's taller than me. This is not good.
