Let's Talk Dream House: Tall Edition

Let's Talk Dream House: Tall Edition

I don't know about you, but I've always dreamed about a world made specifically for people over 6 feet (sorry, 5'10" friends!).

I'm talking about:

  • Sinks raised by 5-7 inches.
  • Toilets raised a full foot.
  • Shower heads at least 2-4 inches higher, with an adjustable head being an absolute must.

Why? Well, thank you for asking.


The Sink Struggle

Growing up, I would get in trouble for leaving dishes in the sink. What no one seemed to understand is that if I'm dressed and ready to go out, I simply cannot wash any dishes by hand. Why? Because if I do, I'll have a wet crotch! Washing dishes on my way out is an unbelievable request, given the circumstances!

I would say this all the time, but the gag is: if you're under 18 and pay no bills, you have to deal with washing the dishes and facing the world with a wet crotch.


The Toilet Torture

Now, toilets. This is a bit intimate, but I'm sick of practicing my goblet squat every time I go to the loo. My glutes love it, but my mind does not.

And don't get me started about the plié squat I attempt to do in a public restroom. It's quickly unsuccessful because there's not enough legroom to fully squat. But that conversation we'll leave for another time (same with the game of peek-a-boo I play when I finally stand up).


The Shower Head Snag

Shower heads are self-explanatory, but if you'd like me to paint a picture: when I shower, I'm looking right down the barrel of the nozzle, and, well, it's a bit much. Great if I'm trying to do a little karaoke, not so great when my backside is waiting several seconds for a hint of water to hit it.

The End. Now, let's start a GoFundMe.
