That one midget is kind of big, compared to the long hair. Is there a midget basketball league out there?

i think they like to be called "little people." also, i think they are technically both dwarves.
Q: What is the definition of dwarfism?
A: Little People of America (LPA) defines dwarfism as a medical or genetic condition that usually results in an adult height of 4'10" or shorter, among both men and women, although in some cases a person with a dwarfing condition may be slightly taller than that.
Q: What is a midget?
A: In some circles, a midget is the term used for a proportionate dwarf. However, the term has fallen into disfavor and is considered offensive by most people of short stature. The term dates back to 1865, the height of the "freak show" era, and was generally applied only to short-statured persons who were displayed for public amusement, which is why it is considered so unacceptable today.
Such terms as dwarf, little person, LP, and person of short stature are all acceptable, but most people would rather be referred to by their name than by a label.

in this case - where youre posting a picture of them playing basketball of all things. . . pretty sure theyd be offended regardless of what you referred to them as. really no need to get technical here . . short people playing basketball is funny. almost as funny as watching them run a relay race against a camel.

The Kansas City home invasion reported today in which one of the robbers had "KC" tattooed on his neck caused us to look up the most popular tattoos of Missouri prison inmates. See our previous post on this.
We happen to have that data from the Missouri Department of Corrections, though it's somewhat old (1997). Later versions of the department's data omitted the tattoo descriptions.
Here are the most popular inmate tattoos:
Tattoo Inmates
CROSS 1,164
ROSE 550
HEART 533
SKULL 468
EAGLE 440
DRAGON 301
REEPER 172
PANTHER 163
UNICORN 162
STAR 131
WIZARD 127
--> BUNNY 125
SPIDER 115
BULLET WOUND 107
GRIM REAPER 103
