Yes, right. Little backstory. It took a major adolescent growth spurt for me to get to 5'8", which is on the short side of average, but not too small (I think average is 5'10", or thereabouts). But before I grew at a freakish pace for about a year or two, I was the small kid. All the older kids used to rip on me constantly during latchkey (nickname: Smallfry). Looking back, it was good natured ribbing, but I was super sensitive about it at the time.
