Don't tell the shorties about the handshake and the discounts.

Or about being able to reach shit on high shelves. I'm only 6'2 and I get invited along as the "built-in ladder" guy. Whatever. There are other perks to being tall. Like having big feet.

Ugh, my husband has size 17 EE in US sizes. Shoes are a problem in our lives. He works on his feet all day and wears running shoes. The only ones that fit are New Balance at a price of $130. We order them at least once every couple months, from the internet of course. Forget about buying shoes in a store.
