People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

MODERATORS
Mandy (Inigo) is 6 foot (1.83m), Wallace (Vizzini) is 5 foot 2 inches (1.57m)
I never realized Inigo was himself tall. Wild
6 ft is only a little bit above average.
If 6 inches is ‘a little bit’ then sure.
Hey! 6” is above average.

"Western" nations average 5'9" to 6', so yeah, Mandy (Inego) is about average height, like 2.5" taller than average for Spanish people.
That just depends on your geographical location and gender. He's not even above average where I come from, he's perfectly average. I feel pretty short at 5'10".
Average is 5'10". 6' is 2" above that, not 6".
You’re going to need to specify what demographic you’re talking about when you say average. The global average is 5‘6“.
Men in the U.S. (Mandy Patinkin is American, despite playing a Spaniard in that movie.)
The global average includes a bunch of Asian countries that are significantly shorter. Average in the west is taller than that.
Your people are 0" tall?
@West_of_West@piefed.social lifted me up, @grue@lemmy.world brought me back down again.
Don't worry, you're well past the 75th percentile and near the 95th worldwide, you're plenty tall.
The army put me at 6'4 20 years ago, barefoot. My last Drs appointment said I was 6'3 while wearing New balance with a fat cushy sole.
You should watch Dead Like Me.
