I found that rather disturbing too. And another smaller man as well. I once worked studying monkey for six months, and sometimes the behaviour on this forum is like watching a pack of young male monkeys. The rhetoric might be human but the underlying psychology is just simian sometimes.

 

And I'm sure neither Achillus or Mafoofan do themselves any favours but that still doesn't excuse the mob mentality. We are all responsible for our reactions and they cannot be blamed on someone else.

When I first got here I was accused of trying (and failing) to be too funny... look what two months on SF does to a guy! smile.gif

 

I like your fit today BTW.

Crazy Brits, always remembering shit that's so OVER, you know?

I'm sorry Mister, but i'm getting a bit peeved at this taking the piss. Choose something else bud. Mine and many other's here's grandfathers died to cover your grandfathers ass in this war so choose something else to make fun of.

I see you have Nixon as your avatar... now he was one for getting wars right wasn't he. Rather make fun of him and the Vietnam war if you like.

I really don't agree that there are racial parameters to this; it's not like there aren't other varieties of short people in the world. I'll admit that I am amused by this comically tiny man and his little suits, but the reason I tossed verbal turds at this photo is that it seems he dropped big bucks on something that couldn't possibly do a better (worse?) job of making him look even shorter. In fact, if you were deliberately trying to visually shrink an already small person, you'd probably:

  1. Put his torso in a big box.
  2. Give him big wide swooping lapels that visually increase his width-to-height aspect ratio.
  3. Add oversized cuffs that further break up the already short lines of his legs.

And guess what?

I think there are many ways of explain what are you saying and most of them are in a gentle way but I think you cannot do it in such way, I Agree with Flying Monkey. Enough for this season, wait for another one.

Gieves & Hawkes, I think, from Malford's store (tried to buy one but 40R sold out pretty quickly).
