Hobbling used to be a thing, where they’d chop the toes off…
But this is hobbiting
LOL, touché salesman
I thought Hobbling was breaking ankles and preventing them from healing properly?
That’s a different way to accomplish the same thing yes. Either way is basically the same difference that prevents your prisoner/captive/slave from running away.
Fair enough.
So basically, the taller you are the more you can afford to embezzle. The entire NBA becomes corporate scapegoats overnight.
Weight is usually the determining factor in any fight. And small people usually have a complex on top. So you are just making them more aggressive in the end?
Small and aggressive, like a chihuahua.
Also height does matter but only because taller people have longer arms and can punch you from farther away
This would create shorter people with longer arms, completely upsetting the meta
The lack of proportionally between the arms and legs would be its own special hell
I think shorter people are faster which is probably more significant.
That’s what we need, another reason to look down on short people.
I’m so sorry…
How about free extensions for having a clean record?
Asking for a friend.
Maybe, but only for like really violent criminals.
Like someone who killed fitty men
That was clearly written by someone who hasn’t watched Casino.
His ending was so brutal. That movie is so good.
What if they made you taller so you have to stoop to go through doorways?
If you’re short you get shortened, if you’re tall you get tallened.
What do they do if you’re average?
You’ve won the Procrustean lottery.
Death.
I would commit incredibly heinous crimes if doing so would make me shorter. It is not good policy to incentivise a crime wave.
I’m decently above average height for my country, but I grew up with so many really tall people around that I never felt tall. So a cheaper punishment could be to have to be the waterboy for a basketball team.
So torture?
