Honestly, too. :D I know that people tend to lie about this. Hell, my younger brother claims to be 5' 10", but he is shorter than I am, and I am 5' 7" without shoes.

Everyone I work with is well above 6'. So, many things are suspended or held on the walls or shelves too high for me to reach. :(

But I'm glad I'm not too tall. I've seen people asked to leave roller coasters at Cedar Point because they're too tall to fit in the car.

Also, and this will be really far out there, but let's just say that I'm walking down the street and a reckless drive-by shooting happens, injuring bystanders. Well, I have a slightly higher chance of surviving the massacre. :D

How tall are you? Do you feel that you're too tall or too short?

Somewhere between 6 and 6'1.

I'm 6'3", which is fairly tall. I like it mostly - if for no other reason than the fact that it tips the stats in my favor, as taller people often get higher wages, better mating prospects, etc.

However, it can be awkward sometimes. At my height, there's quite a bit of things that don't really fit me. For instance, sinks are so low that I have to bend down to reach them.

And the height difference between a 5' girl and me makes for some fun times during fun times.

5'6'' ~ fairly tall for a girl :)

Seems we're the perfect height for eachother. ;)

5'6 here. :p

What scares me is I"m the one of the tallest in the family. XD

The only two relatives that beat me are my brother Jeremy at 6'1, and my sister angle and 5'10-11.

Some cousins and such are taller though, but only a few. Though I have a lot of damn cousins, so I'm definately one of the tallest. XD

I'm 5'6, about 167 cm. Not particularly tall, but the only real downside is that I need to take up every new pair of pants by about half a foot.

187 cm = 6' 1.6"

convert foot, inch to centimeters; centimeters to foot, inch (http://www.manuelsweb.com/ft_in_cm.htm)

I'm as tall as I am lengthwise when lying down :pRandom trivia: when you're lying down for a time - like when you're asleep - you gain a little bit of height. Gravity's not compressing your spine and other compressables.

So technically, you're not as tall as as you are when lying down :p You're actually a centimetre or two shorter when standing up.

My mom's 6'2" and my dad's 6'4". So, my height comes naturally. And one of my best friends is like, five feet, it's hilarious! XP

Levian

5'8'' which is fine. I just wish they'd make more clothes in my size, finding pants is always a bitch, and when i finally find a cool shirt, it's almost always too long or too narrow, or both. Being short and having wide shoulders at the same time is frowned upon by the clothesmen apparently.

5'2'', possibly 5'2'' and a quarter.

I actually kind of wish I were smaller. I kind of love my height as is though.

Though I've noticed that some people seem shorter/taller than they are. I'm one of those people who seem shorter, apparently.
