I am 5'10". A veritable giant among my relatives.
Lemuel Shenguin however is a shade over 6'0", some sort of super giant.

6'3" here. Dare I ask what prompted height chat?
COVID-19! A woman at work's son has just been tested for it, as he just came back from skiing in Italy. The area they left was locked down less than 24 hours later. She's in as normal today, kind soul that she is. Nice knowing you all*!
*Not you.

Scam’s only 5’6? I thought he was a giant of a man, really filling out his lorica.

So, assuming we've all told the truth, and Felice is capable of converting and recording correctly, Sandy is our alpha male, Rolling and Big G are circus freaks.

your face certainly has. Won a charity quiz last night, well, technically the team I was hosting won a charity quiz, but given that left unaided they’d have got 2/20 on the culture round and in the tie breaker initially guessed the height of the Shard at over half a km, I feel pretty comfortable in claiming that one. I also maintain that there are more chickens in this country than there are wrens. Who’s even seen a wren recently? On the other hand I’ve got a chicken in my fridge. Loads of the buggers about, supermarket is full of them. good moaning, I see you are still here, Being me as I am I did indeed look up the height of the Shard in both feet and in metres; Shard in metres: 310 metres Shard in feet: 1020 feet Half a Kilometre: 500 metres or 1640.42 feet! How do you feel now, hmm! (nice 'win' though)! yes, aren't I! [............] (insert words such as, pointless, pedantic etc) I think you’ll find it’s 309.6m, and I feel extremely satisfied with both the bottle of champagne and the lamentations of my vanquished colleagues, thank you for asking. |

4’7” when standing in marshy ground, appreciably taller at other times, dependent in part on the phase of the moon and wind direction.

If I have to be sacked by a Goth I'd rather be ended by her... trouble is I strongly suspect I'd be a rather ineffectual Goth left behind for the kids to throw practice spears at.

There's a guy in my work who's recently rejoined the dating pool and is growing back what's left of his hair.
Checking the progress of the sparse stalks every day reminds me of the cress seeds we planted in primary school.

Felice, for your records. 5'11" Fills a gap. So it does, strange. Can we do eye colour at some point, or perhaps calf measurements? I pretty sure I'd do better there. I'm not too sure about beating Kane, I bet he's got legs like a couple of space hoppers attached to breadsticks. |

Afternoon
So at 6'0 I appear to be distinctly mid-table height-wise.... unlike the local footy team, where 6-0 against seems to be about the average score this season.
So, these games then... recent chat on here has given me a minor pump for DQB2. I'm still in Rimworld, but enjoying the building side more than the survival / escape part and am wondering if I should take the plunge. 50 squid on Steam though... is it that good? Is is far cheaper on other platforms? Do I stick it on a wishlist and wait for a sale, or a random inebriated purchase? Decisions indeed...
