I'm sick of people saying "I want to be tall."
You know what tall means? Pains in my back and neck a lot, even though I'm only 20. Circulation issues so my feet are always cold and slightly numb. Bending down and up again to tie my shoes is so awkward I wear velcro whenever possible.
And in Japan, everything is way too close to the ground. Ever try to use a urinal below your level?
Go buy shirts with a 36" sleeve. Or pants that are long enough yet the right size in the waist.
Then think about the fact it generally means you have a shorter life filled with envious, jealous people who are frequently intimidated by your size into disliking you.
And to Dan: Try not feeling stupid when you're in a crowd of people and you stick out over them so much nobody notices your similarly dressed girlfriend, just the big awkward guy.
