Has anyone ever worked, in a serious job, like in an office building or retail store, and had a midget as a colleague?
I can't honestly say that I've EVER worked with a midget.

Most midgets dont work. They run away with Carnivals or do reality television.

Dude, they probably are in town for that midget convention I typed about here earlier in the week. I was wondering if they would be out and about in rabid packs.

Rabid packs of midgets? Sounds like a Troma film.

These things are all over the place. This afternoon, in the Theatre for Rock of Ages, a midget who looked facially like our friend Metssuckballs. He was walking down to his seat, hopefully for him not behind a tall man.

I've been lax in posting but last Thursday on the LIRR...short, ugly bitch.
If Eddie Murphy was going to cast "Delirious," this one could've been Aunt Bunny. Hell, she could be used by Larry the Cable Guy when he talks about folks with moles.

Uptown 4/5 platform at Fulton Street
Late 30's, male, Black midget wearing black work pants and a navy polo shirt. He was walking around with one eye shut as if he was squinting as if the lights in the station were somehow too bright. He was also drinking from a regular sized bottle of poland spring, but due to his body being 'off-scale', it looked similar to when a normal sized person holds a 40 oz of beer or malt liquor. Perhaps he went to a midget bar last night and got hammered, and today he was very hungover.

Here at work in Irvine, CA....large pharmaceutical company.
I see her on "campus" from time to time, usually heading toward the cafeteria. Nothing unusual about her other than the midget part.
She is the first one I've seen or known of working in a typical, white-collar, 9 to 5 setting.
I wonder if she were to ever submit her two-weeks notice, would she have short-timers attitude.

Laura just called in a midget sighting to me from the road. Driving on Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn, sort of by "the streets named after cities" - a black female midget who "looked slow" waas spotted, wearing sweatpants and a t-shirt, and carrying a rainbow purse. Their hair looked like that of of a troll-doll, giving off a complete "troll-doll appearance."

Ironically, not long after posting Laura's sighting, I nailed one down myself. On the way out of the office, towards the subway platform, a chubby midget lady walking in front of me. Like Laura's sighting, she had a loud pocketbook. She was wearing blue jeans and a red shirt. Possibly a tourist, as she was walking way too slow and looking around, as if in awe.

Seriously--Tatoo only gets honorable mention and Billy Barty isn't even on the list? Someone didn't do their research.

Other News: Spike TV to debut reality show on midget wrestlersBy James Caldwell, Torch assistant editor www.pwtorch.comSpike TV is expected to debut a new half-hour reality show on midget pro wrestlers this summer, according to the New York Post.
The Post reports the show will be called "Half Pint Brawlers" and will feature the main character called "Puppet" and his "psycho midget wrestlers" touring the U.S. with their form of wrestling.
Spike TV executive Sharon Levy painted this as a chance for viewers to "learn about people that are different" and how they handle unique challenges.
"The fact that they are little people is irrelevant," Levy claimed. "No matter what that person looked like, if they came in and they had that personality, I was going to do a show about them -- they could've been coal miners with big personalities."
Caldwell's Analysis: There doesn't appear to be a tie-in with TNA at this point despite the midget wrestling reality show airing on Spike TV. It's a good thing WWE doesn't have their hands on this, otherwise WWE would try to "educate the audience" that midget wrestlers are to be considered pets, live under the ring in an alternate universe, and speak in grunts and crotch chops. In reality, midget wrestlers are human beings with real thoughts and emotions just like regular-sized people, which will apparently be the focus of the Spike show.

Balls has just texted in a midget sighting from the road.
"3:47PM, 53rd and Lex E train stop. Female midget spotted. Dark, possibly of Hindu descent. Wearing a pink hoodie and a knitted scarf. Hair in a ponytail."
Good work!
