Give them an inch

For years I believed I was 6` 2 1/4``, and on some occasions I have answered to 6` 3``.
A couple people doubted me, indeed a commenter on this blog has. I recall Her saying "are you absolutely certain you are 6` 3" ?"
I paid Her no mind.

A 6` 0" colleague of mine disputed my height as well, but she refused to remove Her heels, (probably to hide the corns on Her feet) and I refused to accept Her estimation.

I based my belief on a public school instrument; the ruler.
A ruler is usually 1ft and you can plainly see, it says 30cm.
My `Identification card` says 186 cm, and I divided by 30 and got my height, but today at Arseblog (a forum I frequent) the Administrator ruined my day, pointing out to me that 186 cm is actually 6ft 1 1/4", and a foot-long ruler is actually 30.48 cm.

Readers, this may not matter to you, but I liked saying 6` 3", even 6` 2 1/4"...but 6 feet 1 inch is absolutely worthless.
When people ask your height and you say 6` 1", it doesn`t mean shit.
But you know what really takes the piss.that`s not the only thing I measured with a ruler, and it will take God himself to take an inch from that..
