Sorry about not being able to join the navy.... And i can't be a model either.
But Being tall is definitely an advantage in many ways. you have no idea how terrible being short is. People mistaken you for little kid. Think about it, there's a lot of jobs you can't do if you're short, flight attendants for eg. and customer service. These things needs looks - smart and mature, for first impression. A really short person hardly qualifies for that kind of status.
Anyway, we all want something we don't have.
