2.Having to purposefully slow your walking to make it allow your shorter friends to keep up.
Elevate
3.It takes a lot more to feel full/drunk (aka $$$).
Also sitting in university for 90 minutes.
Legs are long, need space, dont know where to go.
6.Sun visors in cars are completely useless.
Flop that down and I cant see the road.
Now imagine if the seat were much lower.
Now your feet hit the ground too soon and your knees are propped up a bit.
Your thighs no longer touch the seat of the chair, and all your weight falls on your butt.
This is a problemeverywhere.
It becomes impossible to sit comfortable with proper posture.
Long drives become torture sessions unless the front of the seat can tilt up.

A lot of brands assume that if you are long you are also wide.
9.Youre always hidden in the back of group photos.
10.Hair dresser cant reach and asks you slide down in your chair.
11.Climbing stairs, I have 2 issues with it.

Sometimes very dangerous specially on my way down.
12.Shower heads are too goddamn short.
They like to pick fights.

I crack my head on stuff all the time.
Im only 65 so not like freakishly tall.
23.Not being able to comfortably kiss someone who is shorter than me.
24.Im clumsy AF considering the higher center of gravity.
25.Being tall is expensive.
Holidays cost more as you wont fit on a regular seat but need extra legroom.
Groceries cost more as you need bigger meals.
You need a bigger car or you wont fit behind the wheel and your kids wont fit behind you.
All of this adds up fast.
26.Combing your hair down so it doesnt rub on the roof of your vehicle.
27.Finding a long enough blanket to fit me on my bed.
28.Always changing the seat position in someone elses car.
Do not change your shirt near ceiling fans.
Taller men dont usually have a problem at all, its only men who are shorter than you.
They arent used to being shorter than people they already look down on.
You wind up being pretty invisible, which is troublesome.

[Male problem specifically] You have to aim better when urinating in a toilet.
Not to mention the splash damage from urinating at your height.

37.Yard tools arent made for people who are 65.
That shit hurts my back.

40.Kinda obvious but not one that people think about: Stretch marks.

Its not like youre looking, but its awkward.
If youre standing in a bathroom stall you will be seen.
43.Traffic lights are always blocked by the top of the car if Im in front.
44.Everyone expects me to remember them because they remember me.

45.My knees seem to always hurt.
Everyone tall person I know has some form of knee issues.
46.Hotel showers, the shower squat sucks.
47.How people think of you, they expect you to be a brute.
48.you could never get a bed that has one of those sticky-up bits at the foot of the bed.
And for some reason those beds frames often cost more.
49.Flying anywhere is a goddamned nightmare.
Cant take long-haul buses anywhere.
Some cars, their seats dont go that far back.
50.Walking behind people thinking itll be ok, then BOOM!
