Short men really are inferior, say tall scientists

TALL researchers have concluded that short men are inferior in every possible way.

The report, titled Look At The Teeny Tiny Men, demonstrates that short men are less successful, have to sit on cushions to drive and are constantly simmering with resentment.

Project leader Dr Tom Booker, who is the ideal height of 6ft 3ins, said: “Remarkably, every one of our negative assumptions about short men turned out to be true.

“They are the Yorkshire Terriers of the human world: yappy, aggressive, annoying and easily shaken off a normal person’s leg.

“We put a 5ft 5ins man in a room for 12 hours where food, water and entertainment were freely available, albeit on a shelf 7ft from the floor. Within hours he was screaming, leaping, tearing the furniture apart, and throwing his own faeces like a red-faced miniature hairless ape.

“In contrast, a normal man of 6ft locked in the same room for the same period happily got himself some crisps and a drink before settling down to watch Pointless.

“However, it isn’t a case of the taller the better. Every inch taller than 6ft 3ins a man is makes him 11% more freakish, and means he can only find employment in home removals, nightclub security or shelf-stacking.”

Busy mum saves time by preparing marital arguments in advance

A WOMAN has unlocked new efficiencies in her packed weekly schedule by preparing ahead of time a selection of complaints, insults and resentments to fire at her husband. 

Carolyn Ryan, a 41-year-old mother-of-two, was struggling to balance the demands of parenting stress, work hell and marital strife until she discovered ‘batch-griping’.

Ryan said: “I was daydreaming about screaming in my husband’s face for him to help me clean up the kitchen one evening when I realised I was also pissed off that he’d pushed the rubbish down in the bin instead of emptying it, and spent 30 minutes on the toilet instead of helping with bedtime.

“I realised that by prepping ideas for later I would save time on argument admin during the week. Conflict between us is now easy because I’ve always got a variety of fully thought out axes to grind with him. Some of them go back years, which makes our relationship nit-picking extra methodical.”

“The only thing I need to figure out now is what I’m going to do with all the spare time I now have during the week. Perhaps I’ll start anticipating all the ways he might piss me off in the future as well.”

Husband Tom Ryan commented: “Communication is so important in a relationship, even if it’s insane one-sided yelling.”
