This is old news, but worth commenting on IMO. A 5 ft tall man lost his temper in the bagel shop about a month ago and raged about how women constantly reject him on dating sites because of his height, and have said that he should be "dead" because he is only five feet tall. Apparently, the incident started because people in the store were making fun of him about his height. Many people are laughing at this guy, but I'm not. I genuinely feel sorry for him, and he has probably been bullied his entire life because he lost the genetic lottery. The guy who was a foot taller than him and tackled him in the store is pure evil IMO. I certainly oppose his misogynistic rant. However, I can imagine it must be extremely difficult to never be taken seriously your whole life because of your short height. Notice how people laugh at him. If this guy were 6 foot+, people would in the store would respect him and would be scared if he behaved that way, but instead, he is laughed out of the store. Again, I absolutely oppose misogyny and angry behavior by men who are rejected by women. But that's not the point. The point is that our society is seriously effed up if we think it's OK to make fun of a guy who has likely faced a lifetime of frustration, rejection, and bullying because of his physical appearance.
