How to talk to short people: ✕ Wrong ✕ Wrong ✕ Wrong ✓ Correct

What it means

A four-panel instructional joke shows different ways a tall person might interact with a shorter person. Three ordinary approaches are marked wrong, while using the shorter person as a human bowling ball is labeled correct. The absurd punchline parodies visual “how-to” guides and works as a reaction to exaggerated or ridiculous advice.
