Stores and being vertically challenged

I was at the store last night and was going to buy some ice cream. I literally had to jump to see the top shelf of it. I have to say it was all I could do not to crack up laughing in the middle of the store, but risking looking even more nuts would've been a problem. I mean, who jumps to look at shelves? This guy down the aisle was like eek - I guess I can't blame him. lol

But that got me thinking - does anyone else find it ironic that in the petite/short/whatever you call it clothing sections, things are still stacked to the ceiling (when they're on shelves)?

It's actually all kind of funny, if a little annoying on occasion. falloff

lol omg i have to do that sometimes...its funny and i cant help but laugh but oh well. and yeah i hate that about stores. always stack to the damn ceiling like i can see what the hell they have up there.. i'm only 5 foot lol so its a bit more challenging to get to the top.

what really gets me is when you find a pair of pants and its labeled short but still about a foot of jean extra on the damn pair lol...makes me mad! lol

the pants thing is so irritating and about half the reason I prefer four inch heels to any other kind of shoe. falloff

Don't feel too bad, I'm vertically challenged the other way. With no shoes on I'm 5'9. If I were heels I'm easily over six feet. It's hard finding pants long enough.
Remember when u told me that love was touching souls?
Well, surely u touched mine. O{+>
