No.  My wofe just used to watch that show on Oxygen or TLC or w/e it was.

I am trying to be culturally appropriate and not ask if you're a circus family of midgets or dwarven family of imp, etc.

Now you done made me use the bad words, though.

Small as in sprites or kiddos?

Becaus if kiddos that sounds like a drive through orphanage.

Okay I'm going to use a foul word according to today's moral zeitgeist: it was a village of dwarves and midgets

When you say and it insinuates that they are a different people.

My understanding is that dwarves have normal people sized heads but small bodies.  Midgets have a proportionately small body overall.  

[flyingcement]

When I wrestled against Mike Sees of Shikellamy, they told me he was a dwarf.  They were wrong of course.  He was just incredibly strong for a seven year old

That would be incorrect.

Most definitely politically incorrect and perhaps harmful and insensitive.  If so, I do apologize.  That was just my understanding.  CHATGPT has other ideas

I appreciate your sensitivity to the subject and for further training on this topic I would recommend My Name is Earl, season 2 episode 3 - "Sticks and Stones"

Well potatoes are delicious fresh out of the oven, but unless you're making vichysoisse, I'm not a fan of cold potatoes much

[MizzouFan01]

With several wrestlers seeded above 10th seed, I don’t think I’ll duplicate my success in round two. But fingers crossed.

Are you sure that's right? Are you off on a line maybe? I think I have 5 on top - 4 on bottom and 2 out. I told you I crumble in round 2.

It was incorrect, so I deleted the graphic.  Currently updating it now.
