This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

6'2" here, the lack of heel pain is made up for by the fucking kitchen cabinet doors.

Also not fitting in cars, and aeroplanes, and rollercoasters

And having to buy shoes and trousers from specialists, and having your feet hang off the end of the bed in hotels, and wandering into spiderwebs that no-one else has disturbed yet, and not being able to adjust the shower high enough away from home. Gift that keeps on giving.

I'm tall and my SO is short, finding an appropriate shower height at home is impossible.

Same situation - adding a quality hose showerhead + two different clips on the wall so we can swap it between two heights was an indulgent upgrade when we moved in, and it was worth every cent.

you could get one of those handheld shower nozzles and then put a second mount lower or higher as needed.

Old thread, sorry, but don't you have adjustable shower heads?

6'4" here, why is every counter so damn low?

[–] BigBrownBeaver@lemmy.world 14 points 4 months ago

9'6" here. Let me grab your tiny heads like a strawberry

[–] zakobjoa@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

Samesies. Built my own kitchen on stilts. Perfect height for me and a bane to all dwarves.

Bathroom mirrors and showerheads are my bane

And airplane overhead storage, playground equipment, and visiting almost any Asian country.
