S: Hey, did you know the Corona Club fits 1800 people for a concert?
H: Our place could fit 1800 people.
S: No way.
pause. typing. pause.
H: How big do you think a baby dwarf is?
pause.
S: I have to say I've never thought about that.
H: Oh.
pause.
H: Do you wanna know how I got there?
S: Yeah.
H: I was trying to think of how we could fit 1800 people in here. I thought maybe if they were all dwarfs, you know, like Peter Dinklage, but then still probably not. So then I thought if they were baby dwarfs...

Date: 2005-01-12 04:17 am (UTC)I met my ex's boss at a Red Sox game (he sold peanuts on the weekends). My ex had not told me his boss was a dwarf (I once didn't tell someone about my first boyfriend's stutter before I introduced them. Apparently that was a bad thing).
Anywho. After the boss moved on, I gave the ex a slight smack and told him he could have warned me. His response, "He's a dwarf?? I always just thought he was really really short."
I think this has some vague connection to your post.
