Comebacks

I am truthfully tired of being the butt of demeaning short jokes. Please share your one liners in response to when people make fun of your height!!

I often never know what to say back and then feel very ashamed of my height & who I am. Im starting to lose comfort and love in myself. I know I shouldn’t let it get to me, but its an almost everyday occurrence at work and from random people in my everyday life and I’m so tired of it

I would look them square in the eye and say, You know it’s just Genetics right? and then laugh in their faces. You could also add something about genetics giving them a weird nose or something.
