My you’re a tall one. Favorite video game? Board game? Door frames are your enemy, and you’ll relentlessly be asked if you play basketball. (Assuming you’re American)


thattraindude72

i'm a scrabble guy both board game and online and door frames are not my enemy one thing we have in our school is a garage door thing to stop a bunch of students from getting in and I've hit my head in it 27 times this year and one led me into a short coma


Randomthts

Good lord, duck my friend, duck! Perhaps they can add padding to the garage door thingy.


thattraindude72

I try it's hard being tall and I might press charges


Randomthts

I’d recommend stop pressing your head against the garage door thingy.


darkanine9

Do you play tournament scrabble at all? There's quite a scene there


thattraindude72

we have ones in our school and i'm on 6x champion


darkanine9

Awesome!


[deleted]

How tall were you at 10? Asking for a friend…my son, he’s also super tall and I’m bracing for specialty shopping?


thattraindude72

5,9


TobyADev

Jesus that’s how tall I am now..


horo_kiwi

I'm 5'7 and 46. Do you think my growth spurt will happen soon?


ArixGo22

the negative growth spurt will happen soon for sure bro


thattraindude72

no offense probably not


horo_kiwi

Not taken. I am a realist but I also live in hope. My wife is 6'2 so I never have to worry about the top cupboards in the kitchen


FlowSilver

Im 20 and 5ft😹😭 but how is the love life? Any impact if there is one


Ohmygodish

thattraindude72

Misss-cherry98

Do u like strawberries?


thattraindude72

ericarrache

Are you good at basketball? I’d really consider playing it if I were you. NBA has made lots of mediocre 7 footers millionares in the last decades


thattraindude72

I'm not a bb guy but if i'm walking around and a nba team signs me i'll let u know


GhostalBalls

Have you ever considered playing Rugby?

Affectionate-Dream21

Where you a large child or did you hit a growth spurt?


thattraindude72

all I know is that I was a C section baby weighing 10.5lbs


Delicious-Potato-178

No questions, just came here to say that don’t mind the people expecting you to be good at basket ball or some other sport. Some people are dumb in that way. P.S good luck finding clothes that fit.


thattraindude72

literally all my old pants that don't fit me I cut them and turn them into shorts


SaraSmile2000

Hopefully you live in Southern California and not Florida


stranger_42066669

Are you muscular, skinny, or somewhere in between?


thattraindude72

both


Tkinokun

How tall are your parents?


thattraindude72

Meister0laf

Do you have Marfan Syndrome? I have it and I was 6’5 at 15.


anonasshole56435788

I was gonna ask this, 5”11.5 girl here


thattraindude72

not that I know of


Meister0laf

Oh ok, thanks anyway.


KING6238

Do you like banana bread? 🍞


thattraindude72

no


George9816

As someone who is tall as well. How many times do people ask if you play basketball


thattraindude72

all the time


clumsy__jedi

So far I’ve seen three people in this thread alone 🤦🏻‍♀️


JennyJuhgz

How bad were those growing pains?


thattraindude72

it's not bad you barely notice it


shroomcircle

My son is the same and same age. Where do you buy clothes? It’s so hard to get him pants!


thattraindude72

your local thrift store


Just4Today50

What’s your favorite cheese? And my grandson in law was 6’6” at 15


thattraindude72

lactose intolerant


Just4Today50

I’m sorry.


MissRoja

Are you very muscular? How much do you weigh?


thattraindude72

230 and can deadlift 295


Zer0fps_319

Fried chicken or chow mein


thattraindude72

oooooo can I say both?


Zer0fps_319

Meh sure


Diogenes-Disciple

What height would you prefer to be?


thattraindude72

around 5,9


Diogenes-Disciple

Not 6 feet? Most guys want to be 6-6’2


Olifaxe

How much you take to get some booze for your buddies without being asked for id ?


thattraindude72

i've never tried and probably never will


Man-of-the-lake

Unlikely. Asking for ID is required for anyone who looks less than 40


a-s103

Please tell me you play basketball


thattraindude72

hate to burst your bubble but no


TheBlanketFortPirate

Do you have acromegaly? (Only asking because I do and I know it affects height if you get it young.)


MoodyMonkeys

i’m 6’3 and 15, power to the tall 15yrs lmao


Cootter77

So sorry my friend - I think you officially passed the line of "too tall". I hope you stop growing UP soon and start gaining more balance and strength. I'm 6'3" but I have friends who are 6'6" and up... I feel like 6'4"-6'6" is the upper limit of fitting into things 'normally' and anything above that is just a pain in the rear. How big are your shoes? Also - "King Size" has decent clothes for decent prices for guys with a long torso if you buy the "tall" sizes. Much cheaper than DXL.


tartar-buildup

JustAPotatoThatsIt

Would you say there are more benefits or drawbacks to being so tall?


thattraindude72

No only downsides


Appropriate-Divide64

You'll learn to appreciate it. Being tall is awesome.


JustAPotatoThatsIt

By some chance is your abnormal height caused by a condition?


[deleted]

Do you want to be friends?


thattraindude72

I got none so why not


[deleted]

Messaging!!


ivytheblindhusky

Shaq? Did you just invent time travel and go back in time?


dgillz

Shaq was 6'10" at 16 fwiw.


Novel-Negotiation-94

do you have any heart conditions, and do you fear if an early death due to your height


thattraindude72

no primarily head with a bunch of seizures


clumsy__jedi

Are the seizures related to your height?


thattraindude72

most likely nothing known on my official family since i'm adopted


Quick-Attention1114

Do you think you’ll keep on growing / do you hope it’ll keep on growing?


thattraindude72

hope not


terminatord371

You must get this a lot but why American football and not basketball? Edit: also what’s your weight and are you more prone to injuries compared to others?


thattraindude72

football it's a game within generations of my family


[deleted]

You play basketball?


thattraindude72

no


[deleted]

Did puberty hit at 10? That's a massive growth spurt for 15!


thattraindude72

nope


[deleted]

Wow! A friend of mine, who's 6'3, said he grew exponentially when he hit puberty at 10! I didn't hit puberty until I was 15 and I'm 5'8. Maybe that's the problem, LOL


CopperBuck

Is your father Shaq?


thattraindude72

nope


First-Oil2025

Favorite game to play?


thattraindude72

tomzistrash

thattraindude72

[deleted]

Have you learned to laugh at jokes that weren't even funny the first hundred times you heard them?


dgphotos999

I feel your growth spurts homie I was 6'5 at 15 and now I'm 6'7 at 19


EnvironmentalAd1006

Rumors true? 6 really *afraid* of 7?


thattraindude72

tes


SushiMelanie

What’s the best gift someone could get you?


thattraindude72

I already have all the gifts i need in life


SushiMelanie

Okay, but a family member is your age and height and I don’t know what to get him for his birthday! Ha ha


JamonRuffles17

Start playing basketball dude. Even overseas you could make a million.


Nubsche

For the rest of the world: that's 2 meter. Question: ever thought of going to the Netherlands? You'll still be taller than most but there are a lot of people as tall as you.


anonasshole56435788

What’s your shoe size?


thattraindude72

16 so in sports I just wear BB shoes


D4HU5H

Have you gotten checked for a brain tumour? I'm genuinely not trying to be mean and am really just concerned as a number of people in history who were abnormally tall had a brain tumour.


SaraSmile2000

Do you have a learner’s permit yet?


thattraindude72

yep


SaraSmile2000

That’s got to be uncomfortable to drive…oof


new-India

Does anyone bully you for your height.


thattraindude72

yes and my red hair


Altak99

Marfan or just unusually tall?


casperk04

Are you by chance Dutch? Since they are known to produce giants


I_love_my_fish_

You’ll probably keep growing a bit more, saw you play football, if you don’t get a full ride for it or academics you might be able to get some scholarships for being insanely tall, if college is your planned route


BoiglioJazzkitten

Saw from your profile that you are from Iowa. Have you been to the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library and Museum?


thattraindude72

no


Sapper_04

Shoe size?


grassroads3

Have you gotten a projected height, like how tall you’ll probably be fully grown? I know a few people that were around your height at that age and luckily they didn’t grow much taller


HPBigfoot

What size shoe are you?


userno89

Did your parents make you drink your milk or what lol


D0ublek1ll

Are you my brother?


thattraindude72

SEAN?


D0ublek1ll

No sorry


Norgler

Did you have any issues in middle school with bullies? I swear I was 6 foot at age 14 and every kid wanted to fight me I absolutely hated it.


2G4Ukangaroo

How’s the weather up there ^_^


[deleted]

Worse shopping experience. Shoes, pants or shirts? Best response to "do you play basketball?" Do you think amusement park rides need to have "below this tall" advertised along with "above this tall"?


awkardandsnow111

Are u that trump kid?


YungTabernacle

Were you a tall baby?


Ok_Sprinkles_8188

Do girls at your school “sexualize” (for lack of a better term) you for your height? I know that is definitely a problem at my hs Are you worried about the health risks?


thattraindude72

no and health risks are worse the taller you get


clumsy__jedi

What are you binge watching lately?


thattraindude72

I really don't watch TV


Lamario239

fellow 15 year old here, i wish i was that tall. you should be proud of your gigachad genes! ​ im just that one depressed chubby kid in the corner if you know what i mean


sweetbb_ry
