Haha! Is this a surprise for you?

hahaha not really just never been called uber tall before.

 

[NJDiva]

6' 2" guess I thought I had put that down. Serves me right for posting and having a beer. My profile pic is me standing next to a "block" of the great pyramid. Needless to say I am talker than most of the Europeans

E

Now where is my beer

yeah see you do tower over me. the last guy I dated was 6'1'' and I did feel short...now if I'm in heels...different story.

Sparks are flying? Oh crap. Everyone! Protect the alcohol! We don't want to start a fire from the sparks that could cause out valuable drinks to be wasted!

That's what I'm talking about! prioritizing!! Save the alcohol!!

OMG I never thought of that! I do know that having to recreate my bedroom will be challenging...I LOVE the color purple (like you couldn't tell) so I have to come up with an "adult" looking room with a Disney twist to it.

You should write to HGTV and get on that show where they Disney-fy your
backyard!! Last one I saw they did a pirate backyard which was AWESOME but def geared towards kids. There was very little rum

I don't know....Ginormous I guess.

My bro is 6'7"- ginormous is exactly what you call it!

hello all Had a great day yesterday hanging out with my bestie, but you guys sure make it difficult to catch up!

Oh, my goof of the day? I thought it was Thursday.

I keep thinking it is Friday! We recently moved church from Friday nights to Wednesdays and my normal work-week consists of Friday mornings, but my boss will be on vacation Friday so I worked today. Mentally, work + church = Friday! Bad news = it's not Friday. Good news = I have the next 2 Fridays off

Wow you guys were up late for a school night!
so there's a long weekend coming up, who has plans?

My friends and I are starting a mileage challenge for July, whomever walks/runs the most miles wins. So, I'll be working on that, plus I have a bonfire to go to Saturday and DS's birthday Monday

I'm 5 feet 6 inches and I consider anyone I have to look up to tall. And that's a lot of people!

I have this same theory, but I'm 5'1". The only real requirement I have for dating someone (besides the "go to my church" thing) is they be taller than I. I'm not exactly excluding a large portion of the population here

So what's it called when you hit a foot taller?

Comical? My XH is 14 inches taller than me and we managed to make it work for 11 years. Buying cars we could both drive was probably the most difficult part (of the height difference, we obviously had other issues, lol).

That is kinda what I figured, it is all relative. Once you get past about 5" in height difference, now it becomes tall. JMHO.

Yeah, I agree with this for the most part. Obviously 5" taller than *me* isn't tall to most people, but it's still lots taller than me

once you hit a foot taller it becomes.

Holy Freakin' WOW....How's the weather up there ??

aren't you actually excluding everyone here, with the go to your church thing ??

 

[DIS_MERI]

Not for height. It's a lot easier to show up at church than it is to grow But, I suppose I could have phrased it differently so that no one would be confused....

hahahahaAin't that the truth!

I'm not confused, you stated in the past that you only date guys that go to your church, so that would rule out all of the guys here..

you'd have a larger dating pool if you expanded it to guys that are willing to attend church with you

I was a little too loose with my grammar. By 'here' I meant "with this height rule" (ie, that they have to be taller than me) not "Disboards and specifically SSC." I know I'd have a larger dating pool if I was looking outside my church (and, really, it couldn't be much smaller of a pool, lol). But, I don't want to move outside Indiana because of my elderly parents and custody issues (I don't have them now, but I would if I tried to move), and I'm not saying I'd never attend another church for someone (although, my church is like family, I've known/attended church with them for 20+ years). But, really, if I'm not worth showing up at church for....


A guy I knew from high school who is on facebook saw my profile on POF, back when I active on there, and he asked me out. When I said I was looking for someone who goes to church, he acted like I'd asked for a kidney or something. It seemed pretty obvious he hadn't read my profile, part of my objection to POF....

See my goal is to have no yard. I would rather have small deck to just chill out on. I have no kids so there's no reason to have a yard. I would rather have just one room to have as a Disney room. my mom and I were talking about having a room where we did all of our craft/sewing in so that would be a good room to do it in. I'm thinking about having hidden Mickey's in my room though...how cool would that be!

Nothing wrong with having standards and expectations - Life is too short!! BTW lived in Lafayette prior to moving here!!! Boiler Up!!!

I'm with you on the deck. We have no yard and a big brick patio with flowers and lights strung up. It's fantastic and I've already had an awesome party but it was A LOT of work!! I love the hidden mickey idea! I love hidden mickeys!!! IF they even exist. I've never found one so I don't know for sure

 

[POTCAddict]

For some reason I can't quote you properly NJDiva!!! So sorry

I don't think you're the only one. Maybe it's a DIS issue. You never know what our thread is going to do to this poor board.

Cool! My Mom is a Purdue alum, I grew up/live just outside Bloomington, and I went to Butler for a couple of years before I joined the Navy; basically I can cheer for whomever I feel like at the moment

Gotta cheer for The Bulldogs whenever you can....love the underdog! 12 years active duty for me in the Navy, there are some days I miss being out on the ocean.

Wow you guys were up late for a school night!
so there's a long weekend coming up, who has plans?

I'm planning to head up to New Hampshire for the weekend....but don't worry we are going to pack plenty of wine and snacks.

Made it to ten posts and humpday is over on this side of the pond....

It is 4:15 here time for a tasty adult beverage.....

E

Now that looks like the perfect way to spend an afternoon

Don't worry about it. While we've been around for awhile now and have a few inside jokes or references (Booty shaking vid's....Harems... Our Resident Trio of Tight Tipsy Tushes etc) or know what's been going on in people's lives.... We are still an EXTREMELY open and inviting group.

And the best part about it is that we all suffer from conversational ADD that it makes it extremely easy to just jump into the conversation without feeling like you need to catch up on everything said before you joined in.

I'm afraid to disclose which group I belong.

So what is definition of tall guy? According to wikipedia (I know not exactly the beacon of truth) the average height of US male is 5' 10.5".

So anything taller than that is tall??

E

I like guys at least 6 feet tall even though I am only 5'5''.



I need to go and pack for the weekend. I am working a half day tomorrow then headed up tomorrow afternoon.

Too funny, I did 12 years active duty myself; got out 3 years ago to be a stay at home Mom. Managing to keep doing so despite a divorce, altough I do usually work a half day every week. My stints of sea duty were a MSC ship that went from port to port in Europe and shore duty in England, so I can't exactly complain
