How tall are dwellars?
Please pick a height. Preferably your own, actual height. Metrically inclined people can convert how high they are into how tall they are by multiplying the number of metrics they have by 0.39370.
We will round up to the nearest inch or cm since you are all probably slouching right now.
Tall. and wide, and not just across the belly. my wingspan is greater than my height.
eta: 76 inches top to bottom, 80 inches tip to tip.

Ho high? I thought the song went "high ho, high ho"?
You know the dwarves are fuuuucked up when they're singing "ho high ho high".

69 inches. No, really.
And I ain't slouching!
[SIZE="1"]Not anymore.[/SIZE]
Ho high?
Eek. Moderator? Cleanup in aisle six.
When we did faculty superlatives one year, I was voted runner-up for "Most Likely to be Asked for a Hall Pass," since even most of the freshmen were taller than me. I lost to someone who dressed more casually than I did and so she tended to blend in more.

I believe he's what we'd call a "knuckle dragger"

That's why he wears those high-heeled disco shoes.

We have an inadequately broad sample.
Sorry, Dame. I keep forgetting broads prefer to be called dames.
dame it.
swimmer--check.
knuckle dragger--check.
You've seen the cuffs I wear? They're just spacers for all my long sleeve shirts. I know I'm not the tallest dwellar, I think Perry Winkle is taller if I remember correctly. Also, footfootfoot, are you slouching? I don't see any entry for you and I see we can't see the poll results as far as how each person voted.
5'7". Not short, not tall. Too tired to measure my wingspan.

Heheh.....when I was student teaching, the principal actually stopped me in the hallway. My supervising teacher had to explain to her who I was. And every time someone comes in with a note for a student to come to the office, he/she would say, "She's the teacher??!!??" I would always have to put out my hand and demand they give me the note, and I would have to wait a few seconds before they reluctantly do. :p
CG, you are one tall woman.
Height 72 inches.
Wingspan 77.
Last time I measured my height (many moons ago) I was five foot, seven and three quarter inches. So...I'm counting that as 5'8"
@ BigV- I'm there, keep looking.
65 and 65 perfect for doing cartwheels...

Ohhh.... thanks. I see now that the results column is made of links which when clicked expand to show each poster's vote. Thank you for the education.
Oh yeah, 4'9" here. :p
Fun-Size!!

Your thoughts must have been wandering.
:D
Still though, what a woman prolly still applies.
:)
oops. I clicked the wrong dot. I meant 74" I'm 6'2" in the morning, 6'.5" at night.
not sure about the wingspan, but I'd guess it's about the same.
I got the longer wingspan thing going on too. 74 inches tall, 78 inch wingspan.
CG, you are one tall woman.
My biology instructors would beg to differ...
c'mon dwellars. we're trying to work up a decent bell curve here. moar votes.
Just checked my wingspan. it's 75" Only a bit more than my height.
So this whole Vitruvian Man thing is BS??? I'm SHOCKED!
Wingspan 67.5". Also perfect for cartwheels.
Are you a swimmer?
I forgot to add that I also played water polo back in the day. Having a couple extra inches reach makes a big difference in that game.

Slouch! ;)
I'm 75 inches tall, turned 43 a week ago, and back (again) for some more bullshit. :D

I used to be 5' 7&1/2" but crone hood has taken me down to 5' 6&1/2"
my spine scrunched I suppose.

Many women do as they age. I need to drink lots of milk otherwise I'll soon be an ewok. :3_eyes:
No idea what the wingspan is, my tape measure is too short.
anxious to see if we are normally distributed.
We're normally disturbed, if that helps.
Lola, you are a stitch.
SO MEAN!!!
Lilo was the cute one ; Stitch was the irascible monster from outer space.

I'm problably the plumpest
Not even above the average.
Someone with more patience than me should do a weight poll. I am above-average in many ways.
I am very, very disappointed by the Vitruvian man thing.
And who will honestly answer their correct weight? :P
And then somebody would have to cross reference weights with heights... could make it easier and do a BMI poll?
And who will honestly answer their correct weight? :P
It could be an anonymous poll, unlike this one.
And who will honestly answer their correct weight? :P
I will.
what about a penis length poll?
That'll just start an argument about the nature of infinity.
Wasn't there a penis length poll here years ago?
I suppose we'd have to do a vagina size one too then?
The theme song for it could be "How Deep Is Your Love".
haha...I was just thinking that myself CG. lol
what about a penis length poll?
But then how would we know who's lying? :P
There'd need to be pictures Lola. You silly bunny. ;)
i think a female cellarite should measure. oh, please make sure you measure more than once. we don't want any mistakes. lola bunny - would you be the official??

you know Leo was a little trickster.

Oh, wow.
I needed that laugh.
Re: Penii.
I've seen tons. literally tons of them. (I WAS a nurse, you know) and while they do differ it's really only the Lock Ness types or the pencil erasers that get any mention. Some do bend definitely one way or the other; a curve if you will. I had one of those. He was mind blowing. Also had a Nessie. Amazing. Truly a work of art. I wanted to take a pic but he wouldn't let me (not that he was shy he just didn't want to be recognized) It was the length from the second line on my wrist to the tip of my middle finger and had girth, baby, girth. He was the best screw and the worst person I ever met.

Which is... in actual measurements ... ???
Oh well, I'd probably end up with the short end of the stick
seven and NEARLY one half inches. you guys in Oz know inches? should I convert?
maybe better view of tape measure
:lol: clearly it was memorable for you.
You look cross there Tril.
Or are you just missing it?
Too Much Information Below.
You have been warned.
I had a long flirtation and a lovely snog with someone in my office. I've never judged a man by his penis before, but this one was like a pencil. I felt ham-fisted giving him a hand shandy. I broke up with him just after Christmas. I knew I would, so I bought him an extravagent present. The really awful thing was he took me to meet his family on Boxing Day - aaaaargh.
But in my defence the man who I had the best foreplay with (it wasn't one-sided!) had the shortest dick. Poor chap. He was simply born with it, it's not something you can work on. And the man had the tongue of an angel.
geez, I wish I had never brought this up
:lol: clearly it was memorable for you.
it
was!
It was curved, like a fine Arabian sword. AND he was in a band
lead singer and he was goood and I fucked him on the sink in the men's restroom of a SuperSubway just because I was 21 and could. god he was hot.
saw a pic of him just a few weeks ago. despite his no smoking and hardly ever drinking the boy has NOT aged well. Hell, I look better than he does and I've trashed myself.
oh well. It was what it was and what it was was FREAKING GREAT!
sundae----I'm contemplating my lost youth and how a girl couldn't really appreciate a curved 7&1/2 incher when she was 21 but how NOW I can appreciate it, my joints hurt too much to have sex.
did I tell you guys chemo is mustard gas? yeah, I learned that from the IQ book you sent me, Cherry. MUSTARD GAS. My handwriting has never recovered and neither have other parts of me.
(sorry, ortho---but like you said, you're not getting the Red Devil that I got so you'll be okay)
Just to correct Bri.
Yes, it's in public, but Brits at least will appreciate it.
I sent her a QI book.
Flicking through it before I sent, every entry came into my ear as Stephen Fry.
Or occasionally Phill Jupitus (did you know his step-father was Lithuavian and was given that surname in 1917 at immigration?)
Never Alan Davies though.
what's in public that Brits will appreciate? be clear, woman!
and, oh, sorry; a QI book. Still----it's mustard gas.
and Stephen Fry---that cheers me up already. I want to live with him. Do you suppose we could get him as a fourth? (Dani being the third, natch)
I meant that I was correcting you in public. Something I only tend to do in PMs these days so as not to offend.
Yeah I want to live with Mr Fry too.
I think Dani would go for someone spikier though (not sure this is a real word, it comes from spiky)
When my Euromillions reward comes in, I'll make it clear that M Fry always has a room at my place. He'll drop by from time to time, don't you worry.
(sorry, ortho---but like you said, you're not getting the Red Devil that I got so you'll be okay)
Yeah, but cyclophosphamide is still mustard gas. And Taxotere is from yew. Pulmonary fibrosis, cardiotoxicity, future malignancies. And I'm going to lose my fingernails, I think. Hooray.
Oh, sorry, this is a happy thread. Disregard the above.
Plath has the perfect poem for the poisonous Yew:
The Moon and the Yew Tree
This is the light of the mind, cold and planetary
The trees of the mind are black. The light is blue.
The grasses unload their griefs on my feet as if I were God
Prickling my ankles and murmuring of their humility
Fumy, spiritous mists inhabit this place.
Separated from my house by a row of headstones.
I simply cannot see where there is to get to.
The moon is no door. It is a face in its own right,
White as a knuckle and terribly upset.
It drags the sea after it like a dark crime; it is quiet
With the O-gape of complete despair. I live here.
Twice on Sunday, the bells startle the sky --
Eight great tongues affirming the Resurrection
At the end, they soberly bong out their names.
The yew tree points up, it has a Gothic shape.
The eyes lift after it and find the moon.
The moon is my mother. She is not sweet like Mary.
Her blue garments unloose small bats and owls.
How I would like to believe in tenderness -
The face of the effigy, gentled by candles,
Bending, on me in particular, its mild eyes.
I have fallen a long way. Clouds are flowering
Blue and mystical over the face of the stars
Inside the church, the saints will all be blue,
Floating on their delicate feet over the cold pews,
Their hands and faces stiff with holiness.
The moon sees nothing of this. She is bald and wild.
And the message of the yew tree is blackness - blackness and silence.
she get's it pretty good, doesn't she? I tried not to take the Yew personally but jaysus Taxotere is rough. and cardiotoxicity: got it. Yay me!
It's like my sister said when I was taking chemo---they're trying to just barely kill you; just kill you a little.
Excellent pome, Trilby.

I've read this a few times. NOW I see that your quote does not include the word "up" between "broken" and "you".
This epiphany changes the tone of your remark completely.
