My husband sent me this and I'm wondering why she's still upset when it sounds like the person accepted her no and went to get someone else for help. Are tall people really that offended if a shorter person asks for help? Because I will ask tall people if something is out of reach

I'm tall and I help people reach things all the time. I know a short person would scuttle into a hole or crevasse for my benefit as well

Now you're talking!😈😆

I’m short. I ask for help all the time. Store employees, perfect strangers. They are all willing to help.

This woman is just mean.

not your friend but I suspect you would do this anyway. I can stand on a chair myself thank you.

utilitylimb.bsky.social•73 days ago

it’s ok to ask for help getting up onto the chair

halimede.bsky.social•73 days ago

:/ that's what the other smaller chair is for

I always tell people I'm happy to help, that's what being tall is for.

I’m only 5’9” but have been asked a few times for help. I’ve never said no. I’ve even volunteered to help the more vertically challenged get things they couldn’t reach. It’s no burden to me to help where i can.

I'm just a little guy and have never had anyone decline to help me reach something, though I'd only ask a stranger nearby, otherwise I'm asking staff.

I'm roughly 50 feet tall, and every single time I get to climb a building, punching a hole in every floor (and eating people and lamps) in an effort to make the building collapse before a guy can drop dynamite in front so I can get more points before the level ends, they act like I'M the jerk?

utilitylimb.bsky.social•73 days ago

they let the wolf guy do that, but they get all dicey about the lizard

Do they even know how much helicopter fuel costs? And they apparently have infinity much of it to fly around and _assault me with a massive gun_? Anyway, times is tough out there is the point
