Heights and ages would be interesting - people are definitely getting taller. 6 feet/180 centrimetres was once considered quite tall, only a generation ago in fact.

I'm 25. Our generation is definitely taller than the previous, mainly due to better nutrition.

Oh, if we talk about our children's tallness: My son is 195cm (6'5"). But I doubt that he had a better nutrition than me.

Put an end to popups!

I'm 1.75 or 5'9

I grew in several bursts. Still hope to gain 2-3 centimeters in the next few years, even though I'm 18.

I'm a late bloomer.

5'6" - 5'7" or 167 - 170cm. In other words, fairly short.

Does it matter? I dunno, it doesn't bother me, not being tall.

No way, I'm pretty tall. I was always one of the "tall kids" while growing up. That's pretty funny my pictures make me appear short though. I thought the exact same thing about Fez, I could have sworn he had to be about 5'3 or so.

Nope... I am 6' 1" going on to 6'2"... infact I am still growing somewhat.... I also find it funny how you could possibly think I was 5'3" considering most of my pictures were mostly of my face.

My best friend is 204 (give or take a few, i dunno cause I am prehistoric) cm or 6'8" and he's 14. So don't whine.

I'm 14 too, and about 5' 7" or ~170 cm I think. Height doesn't matter at all to me because I am a bit taller than most of the people I know, but not ridiculously tall.

I'm 170cm, (5' 7") one of the shotest males in my school class. I grew fast from 11 to 14 then I suddenly stopped growing (I'm 16). My mom and half-sister had the same growth pattern too. Most people on both sides of my family are short (males: 5' 6", females: 5' 2"), my dad and uncle being exceptions to the rule. (5' 11" and 6' 3" respectively) Most of the boys in my class are tall.

About 6' even. Not sure, exactly, don't care that much.

The only reason I'm posting, of course, is for the tagline. Not that it'll mean anything to those who haven't seen the show. Oh well.
