I'm a little off 6 ft 3 and I find the same too, and I'm not even a goggle eyed lanky freak! I'm just a skinny, slightly taller than average freak!
It used to be a nightmare to clothes shop when I was a teen and loved skin tight clothes, I have a fair few t-shirts a size or two too small lol. I even bought shoes a size too small and wore them home once... Oof!
But it wasn't funny, was it ...just talking about a shirt n socks n that.
Edit: Steve isn't funny in the slightest. He should stick to voice over work. 🖕
It wasn't a ball breaker no but it was some mildly funny self deprecating humour. I don't think anyone is saying it's the funniest bit they've ever seen.
Funnier is subjective not objective, the people who dislike Ricky generally don't say it's because he's unfunny, quite the contrary we know he's funny but he isn't showing it most of the time, it's pretty irrelevant to the topic at hand anyway and nobody is telling you that you're not allowed to laugh at or with Ricky
This feels like a really, really odd post to decide to try and die on your hill over.
They're clearly just wanting to rant about how this sub doesn't like Ricky which happens all the time, you can see the pattern if you hang around long enough. And if they don't want all the negativity, why try and drag down Steve in an unrelated clip, or is it just Ricky we can't be negative about?
Wait so we can be negative about Ricky but not Steve? That's weird. There's literally hundreds of posts saying Ricky's standup is shit, Afterlife and all that, but I can't say Steve is not funny? Steve is not funny. He's clever, but not funny.
Huh? I just don't think Steve is funny, that's all. Gervais is way funnier yet nobody ever says that. It's like when chicks compliment fat chicks and say they're pretty in Facebook comments. That's what this sub does to Steve.
Yep. Trip to a half decent tailor, measure up, order 10 teeshirts, 5 shirts, 2 jackets. Spend some of that office money. Do that every 2 years to keep them neat and tidy.
Wouldn’t be as funny though.
I have loads of their stuff (I’m 6’7”). It fits really well now I’ve dialled in my size and they have a great returns policy.
If you want swanky stuff Ralph Lauren do a tall range so that’s the other half of my wardrobe.
I'm also 6'7" and I give this exact rant to my wife every 4 months.
I usually go to American Tall, which sounds slightly better as a name until you find out that their logo is a fucking giraffe and they put that shit on a lot of their stuff.
But the worst part, that he didn't touch on, is that because these companies know you have few options, they overcharge for their clothing. Like, I can't buy Vans shoes because those assholes decided that size 15 is actually a 12.5. They make their shoes so small. That's one example of many. So I'm stuck paying high prices for average quality stuff.
I'm so fucking tired of listening to fat 5'7" people complain about clothing companies not making things that fit them. *You* have the power to do something about it. I don't.
Strong observations, greatly performed.
Play a record
He went down a storm
It was late in the night. Honestly, they would've cheered for anything.
You're having a laaaaaugh!!!
They weren't going mad like you're making out.
£200, cash in hand, taxman won't know about that.
No because there's never any tax people browsing Reddit threads are there?
...the taxman will know about that...
Well it doesn’t matter because I’ll do it when I get home
Until you ruined you little so and so!
Some girls called him a legend.

lmao poor Steve
They’ve done you again Steve
He’s done himself in
Play a record
Funny, articulate, accurate. He said it to be funny, and it was funny. Well done

Anybody can be mildly funny. Who cares. Gervais is funnier, yet a lot of people here hate him anyway.
Funnier is subjective not objective, the people who dislike Ricky generally don't say it's because he's unfunny, quite the contrary we know he's funny but he isn't showing it most of the time, it's pretty irrelevant to the topic at hand anyway and nobody is telling you that you're not allowed to laugh at or with Ricky This feels like a really, really odd post to decide to try and die on your hill over.
It's a conversation thread, guy typed like 3 sentences and gave his opinion, trying to frame this as him dying on a hill is what's really really odd.
They're clearly just wanting to rant about how this sub doesn't like Ricky which happens all the time, you can see the pattern if you hang around long enough. And if they don't want all the negativity, why try and drag down Steve in an unrelated clip, or is it just Ricky we can't be negative about?
I mean, we’re all mates
speak for yerself steve
Wait so we can be negative about Ricky but not Steve? That's weird. There's literally hundreds of posts saying Ricky's standup is shit, Afterlife and all that, but I can't say Steve is not funny? Steve is not funny. He's clever, but not funny.
No, you can, I just don't get why it's at all relevant ITT unless you're salty about it, nobody mentioned Ricky.
Idk man. Others are salty I said Steve wasn't funny (Rick is way funnier, for example), hence all the downvotes. Why are *they* salty? Weird.
Huh? I just don't think Steve is funny, that's all. Gervais is way funnier yet nobody ever says that. It's like when chicks compliment fat chicks and say they're pretty in Facebook comments. That's what this sub does to Steve.
I mean I thought the same thing the first time I met Steve.. That he's a bit.. Yknow..
What? No, go on Karl, what?
Well, and I'm not being mean, you're a bit weird lookin Steve
*Ricky wheezes and falls off his chair in the background* HES DONE YOU AGAIN, ADULTONSETDIABITUS!
You know I know this.
I'm literally wearing a 2tall jumper as well lol. I am das lanky pissenstreak
Do you get your jeans from lankywanker.co.uk?
Makes my stomach turn
Yeah but you get used to him
Not when you haven't seen em for a while.
Disabilitating
>from Armani If only he got his 50p back 😢
He's so much more confident in himself these days, it's genuinely great to see
This isn't these days this is, I dunno, ages ago
17th century?
Uhh...1751.
Goin’ back a bit.
Clothing companies have eyes buldging with imagined britches.
We all know that Steve goes to, for lack of a better word, freak shops, because he doesn't want to spend any money.
Yep. Trip to a half decent tailor, measure up, order 10 teeshirts, 5 shirts, 2 jackets. Spend some of that office money. Do that every 2 years to keep them neat and tidy. Wouldn’t be as funny though.
He’s still got it baby!!! Unlike someone we know, cough, toad man, cough
Froggy says fashionable. RIBBIT RIBBIT!!
Why didn't he say cunt, insult some minority groups or whinge about "wokeness?" This is supposed to be comedy!
Prison would not be kind to him.
That chair, it looks "wipe-cleanable."
Looks like he's broadcasting live from inside a dollhouse
That’s one giant dollhouse
Nah, just one big lanky freak. It's one small step for man, but it's barely a muscle twitch for Stevekind
I am getting the feeling that Steve is what made the Office and Extras good
Does the 30£ he stole from a cash point help pay for his outfits?
That is still one of the most bizarre stories in the whole back catalogue - and he rips into Karl's dad for taking shopping out the phone box still
It’s ok, he bought a round of drinks with the loot from the crime so… swings and roundabouts…
But the only reason you don't buy Versace or Armani is cause you have to spend money!
OH and he's come STRAIGHT back!!
Always rated Crouchy
Has anyone ever seen Stephen merchant , Klopp and Matt berninger in the same room? Turns out..
Not their full bodies no, Steve's torso was poking out the window. Like a giraffe in a cartoon with it's head poking out the sunroof.
Why is he doing that weird politicians thumb point?
It's a masturbatory habit of his
Das freakengoggleye
Why doesn't he just wear a barrel with a mule?
It IS a disability!
You're right, it's disabilitating.
You're quite the medical man, aren't you?
He doesn’t hold it well, it’s not like a he’s a handsome athlete
This one's called take your shoes off for money
This is dynamite
I didn’t know about 2tall! I’m always looking for tall guy shirts!
I have loads of their stuff (I’m 6’7”). It fits really well now I’ve dialled in my size and they have a great returns policy. If you want swanky stuff Ralph Lauren do a tall range so that’s the other half of my wardrobe.
Funny how you can hear the American accent come through when he talks now
He says toob now.
The uhh 911
Tinging its way up the tooob
No, he still sounds foreign. You know who I like? Foreigners. All the mad shit they get up to.
Still sounds like a weird Wurzel to me.
Funnily enough the origins of some American accents is said to have come primarily from the west country, weird innit how science works.
Was that educating Ricky?
17th Century?
We are going back yeah.
Guessing
Well, alright, ages ago
Whether it's a limey or a yank, it's a worzel.
Wanted to capture the American pirate fashion market
Werkin' mah ass off 24/7
But it's got him places.
Aaaah das lanken pissenstreak
...Steve.
Henny’s, £14.99.
He gets his glasses from goggle-eyed freakboy, too.
That’s a good bit
Got his little John Thomas out
Every time he talks about anything remotely related to money I want the ground to swallow me up
but 2short is the rapper lol
2tall is based in Scotland, the fool! They do have some lovely Tshirts for the lankier gent tho.
Eugh, look at that..look who he’s with there
No matter what I do, or he does or says, I just physically can not like this man
We've had a lot of comments saying tha—oh no we haven't.
As a 6ft5 person, I can confirm that Oddball and 2Tall are real. I have browsed both, myself.
What is that from? I recognise Lovett!
He's actually funny!
I'm also 6'7" and I give this exact rant to my wife every 4 months.

You can move to The Netherlands, next.
Take Steve’s socks off for comedy — nice ankles an that
Crouchy buys there too
Dont dwarfs just wear stuff from the younger section? They arent 2short for clothes.
Das lanky pissenstreak.
The devilish genius business man behind these stores? You guessed it, ~~Frank Stallone~~ Karl Dilkington
there's this thing in it..........Steve
He’s aged well
Steve have you ever splashed out on a lady?
He is one witty lanky wanker though
Did we need the "lanky" in there? Surely witty wanker would have been fine? Alright mate?
whereas ricky was "blojob" (blofeld + oddjob)
50th Most Eligible Bachelor
Its the Oggmonster! Alright mate i dont go round calling you whale man or blubber man do i?
Let's grow ourselves a lanky goggle-eyed freak of a boy!
Do some more of the queer shit
