Short people have it so much harder than tall people think. Besides the fact that everything on the top shelf is unreachable even if they use a stool, there’s also the problem of not being able to see anything in concerts, never finding pants that fit without needing a trim, and many other frustrating everyday problems they have to deal with.

Bored Panda collected some of the funniest posts of short people’s problems. If you find these relatable, you’ll also enjoy our short people jokes for a good laugh.

If you’re one of the down-to-earth (pun intended) people yourself, we’re sure you’ll find this common problem post relatable. Just remember there are also many pros to being short, such as shopping at kids' sections and saving lots of money, always looking younger than you are (staying forever young), and having lots of leg room in any car or plane.

And if you’re tall, don't be an arse and help your shorter friends in need! Now, scroll down below for a complete list of short people memes and struggles.

    Honestly, most short girls I know just totally love to mention themselves so often how short-tiny-cute-adorable they are to others in the context to get a compliment :) No offense, but all girls below 5' whom I know (have really close friends) seem to totally enjoy the way they are treated (especially by men who find it so cute) for their heights. So don't see the reason for irritation in this pic. Don't yell at me pls, yes, I'm of average/above average heights))

    My first thought is that this isn't short either. Average height is 5'3" in the UK. Although most clothes are made for someone 5'6" - least that's what I've read.
