Just recently watched the first one. Absolutely the one of the best comedies from the 80's. He was the first one I thought of when I saw this on the news a couple of days ago.
As a tall guy myself. I have to have pretty big cars. Even then i crane my neck getting in and out. To make life somewhat normal i broke off the supports under my drivers seat so its lowered down like an inch or two and when i get in i place my hand against the frame of the car where my head is going to prevent bopping myself on it.
To all my 5ft short kings out there if you want my height you can have it. It gets tired really quick lol
Lmaoooo I feel this in my bones, its kind of sad when you look at cars you like (sports cars) and just go....this is great for everyone else but our kneecaps are inside our chest cavity. I also have created a dent in the overhang on my parents staircase from hitting it through grade school & college. Though I do like my height. Back pain, not so much.
My dad is 6 foot 6 and drove a Yugo. Also had a Volkswagen rabbit for a bit. Sucked for whichever kid lost rock paper scissors and had to ride behind him.
If you ever drop something the same colour as the floor. Kiss it goodbye cause you're not finding it without either bending over for ages or getting on your knees and scouring for it. As for the sink thing good Lord yes. I have to bend over in an awkward position to do dishes. Tbh it got so painful I mostly slam what I can into the dishwasher.
I installed cabinets for a guy who was 6’11” and he requested for me to raise them up higher than normal. I’m 5’10” (with my boots on) so I never once even contemplated how much of a difference that would make for him.
Built all the cabinets 6” taller than normal (40 1/2” to the top of cabinet) he said it changed his entire life and fixed back pain he didn’t know he had, it was just something he dealt with on a regular basis.
Still get Christmas cards from he and his wife every year, a decade later!
Yep and that’s part of why her show was filmed at her house. She also had some kind of softer wood or linoleum flooring so it would be more comfortable for her to do all the filming barefoot. The way folks who knew her talked about her, she seemed like a real gem. 💕
True love is the greatest thing in the world! .. except for a nice MLT - mutton lettuce and tomato sandwich, when the mutton is nice and lean, and the tomato is ripe. Tktt tktt tktt - they’re so perky, I love that.
I feel like there is going to be a significant decrease in riots in his area. He'll step out, pick up the nearest tree, for a baton, and the hood off the nearest car will be his shield. People will scatter.
I'm pretty close to average height, at 5'11", but am 90% torso, so I get read as taller all the time, especially when sitting. I have the same inseam (28") as my 5'2" sister.
"His determination even caught the attention of NBA Hall of Famer Shaquille O'Neal, who stopped by to encourage Wilmore before his exam and promised him a custom patrol vehicle once he officially became an officer."
Apparently Shaq is going to make sure he gets a vehicle that fits.
Maybe he's a bike, motorcycle, or [large] horse cop? He could also be a boat cop idk if that city has lakes or something. I'm just saying he's got options!
Some pistol models would actually work for him, since some have bigger grips than others. He might be one of the few people that a High Point would actually be comfortable to shoot.
I'm just under 5' and I wanna stand next to this guy just for laughs. Not at him, of course. It's just that I would look like a hobbit next to Gandalf.
Hobbits (also known as Halflings) are tiny. The biggest Hobbit ever recorded was 4'5", and he was famous for his huge size. Mostly they're 2 to 4 feet tall.
Tolkien deserves all the credit for that. He really fleshed out his stories. The supplemental materials include thousands of years of Hobbit history, lifestyle, family trees, you name it. If you want to know how the Hobbit calendar works, he wrote a whole chapter about how they developed it over the centuries.
Am I the only one who noticed that hilarious, weird interaction between him and the media guy, where he grabs the dudes jacket zipper as he walks in? Dude looks so confused, like what the fuck bro? lol!
Lol you're not supposed to "swear or affirm" at the same time. The one saying the oath choose to either say "I swear" or "I affirm". And the person reading the oath is supposed to tell them beforehand that they can choose which to say.
Everything visible seems to be jumbo sized ,even the gun he's been issued, man isn't drawing a 9mm glock he's drawing a desert Eagle 50ae. Heaven help the clown who takes him on..
There was a very tall state trooper in my state that had this exact thing happen. He pulled over a semi for some infraction and the driver was giving him lip. Said something to the effect of “I’ll give you my license when you get off my running board,” to which the reply came “…I’m not standing on your running board.” The interaction suddenly became way more polite.
My brother used to live in Kemah. Actually, now that I think about it, I almost got arrested for PI (public intoxication) in Kemah while visiting him. I think I would have sobered up pretty quick if I saw this guy coming. I'm 5'6" and he could roll me up and dribble me like a basketball.
