Absolutely crazy

Arguing over what gang affiliation a 4 year old should grow up with?  Maybe it’s the new “what religion to raise the child in” argument.  I should ask all my friends with babies (that number is ever increasing, weird.  Though I guess I am at the age where that sort of thing will be a more regular occurence) if they have this argument.

Gang Baby 

My new favorite NBA player

Is Channing Frye of the New York Knickerbockers.  His “cons” of being tall:

Cons

  • Growing up I could never get any of the cool shoes in my size
  • No matter what I wear, unless it’s a basketball jersey, I feel like it’s just not made for people my size (I personally just make it look good)
  • Even though small cars are cool I can’t fit comfortably in any of them. I try and save the earth by conserving gas but I can’t fit in a Subaru or Honda, so I ride in a realy simple Tahoe. I try to do my part.
  • No matter what seat I have on an airplane, unless it’s the team plane, NOTHING is comfortable — absolutely nothing. It’s a mental battle the whole trip trying to keep my knees from the people in front of me smashing them with their seats. I mean, seriously, do you not see the 7-ft man behind you? Do you think it’s cool to slam your chair back on our 330-hr flight?

Other than that, I mean, there really aren’t any other cons. Being tall is great. I love it and wouldn’t change it in the world.

Hilarious.  The blog post with the full list here.
