Height Trolling
Woman in my class asked for help and I said I was too short to help her.
post #1

In my core psychology class, there is this air head who sits near me (it's a large room, but we both usually sit near the front. I prefer to be closer to the professor and board). She's always snickering and saying passive aggressive things to me. No one else in the class is like this, just her. She never says anything direct either. During down time when everyone can chat, she always has something snarky to say about shorter guys. 

Anyway, she was having trouble understanding some key concepts which will make up the majority of the upcoming exam and asked me if I could help her. I told her, "I was too short to help" and suggested she ask one of the taller guys.

She was so red, livid and didn't know where to put her face.

Been there. When someone said some slick crap about my height repeatedly, I'd limit my interactions with them. This hasn't happened often, but I know to this day that if I were to say something slick about attributes that were "off-limits", they'd write me off faster than a New York minute. If you don't do this, then they'll keep doing it. 

Might make me look like goofy, but it'll make them reflect on their stupidity at some point. In my experience it has because they talked different to me afterwards.

This happened to me. Coworker at the student lounge lost her wallet and phone and needed money for the bus. Same woman told me last week that I was a "labubu" in front of other co-workers for a laugh, and then another time asked why I was on shift with her if I couldn't reach the top shelves. Cool. I told her I was too short to lend her anything and she should ask a random tall guy outside of the store to help. She was pissed. It was raining, we were the only ones on shift and I know she lived far.

This is super petty, I'm not going to lie, but I'd probably take the same approach. I wouldn't tell a person that, but just avoid them or always "be busy".
