#please go haha you're short and jokingly crouch down to my height its so much more hilarious

[anonymous-eggy]

me, walking into the store to pick up what my mom ordered: Hi, I'm here to-

lady: Hi there, little buddy! what can i get for you today, need to pick something up for a parent? (patronizing)

me, used to this and already tired of it:

#let me speak pleeeease #dear lord please dont interrupt me to talk to me that way #can we like- please stop talking to everyone like that? #even if i were a child that would still piss me off #it's a nightmare being me in the public #the amount of times i have been approached and asked if i was lost or where my parent was #i understand theyre trying to be nice and all but i am not a child and im not asking for help #please treat everyone with equal respect #dont talk to people in a patronizing tone its frustrating #yeah i get it im tiny and therefore adorable uwu #but i would rather you outright tease me than give me that tone of voice #please go haha you're short and jokingly crouch down to my height its so much more hilarious #but when people are like Oh! you're 19? you're so small i thought you were 13! #while giving me an even more patronizing tone than before i feel the pure rage boil from within me #its very frustrating and it makes me want to rage cry and never leave my house again because of the debilitating fear of how i am perceived #dear lord please do the mean teasing. i will take that over whatever the fuck these people are doing #eggy rants #short people problems
