Agreed. You can refer to the top of  this dictionary page for synonyms such as little person, hobbit, dwarf, bitch, ass, or whore.

Depends on what county you're in. In Sweden, you must be 6'5" to be tall. In the US, 6' or more. In Asian countries, over 5'.

Again, per the  dictionary :
 
 Height categories (men):
 5'1" or under Midget
 5'2"-5'3" Very Short
 5'4"-5'5" Short
 5'6"-5'7" On the short side
 5'8"-5'9" Not that tall
 5'10"-5'11" On the tall side
 6'-6'2" Tall
 6'3"-6'4" Very Tall
 6'5"+ Giant
xoxo

I am 6'4" and if you don't want to be standing behind me at a show, get there before me.  This thread is hilarious.  The evil eye?  The evil eye from who exactly?  The countless hipsters that go to all of these shows only to look like they're in a coma while the band is on?  Yeah I really care if I am in their way.

Actually, the Swedes are only 0.8 inches taller than the average caucasian American male.
 
 The Dutch (and some Serbs) are the ones who average 6-foot plus.

Point excellently illustrated.  Inconsiderate people are immune to the evil eye.

Yeah, but you're fat too, which changes the whole dynamic.
