"Tall guy problem" is a term used to describe a situation where, during a potentially confrontational or threatening moment, shorter individuals and women tend to avoid getting involved physically. This expectation arises from the assumption that taller guys are generally bigger and stronger, so they are often seen as the ones who should handle such situations. The term points out the stereotype of relying on height and physical strength to deal with conflicts.
Person A: "Did you see the argument at the club last night?"
Person B: "Yeah! Typical tall guy problem. Everyone left it to Tom, the tallest guy, to handle it."
Person A: "He handled it well, though."
Person B: "True, but being tall doesn't mean you're automatically the peacemaker."

Get the Problem mug.The chronic state of having painfully bunched up proverbial underwear, the all too common mindset in current times state of being that is eager to take offense to anything possible and taking everything the wrong way. Synonymous with the rampant chips on the shoulders of American citizens who prefer to constantly have some axe to grind, rather than accept that they don’t have the answers and that they cannot trust their leaders.
A) During COVID I was met with the problem bottoms of the malcontent public, who are irritated by my existence or standing near them. B) My former neighbor had serious problem bottoms regarding me, to the point that she called the police on me and lied to them. When I had to go to court, she beat her problem bottoms into the ground, paying a lawyer to drag out my court case and eventually being considered crazy by the entire New Orleans Municipal Court House.

Get the Devin S. Problems mug.One day the problem child won't be here anymore, and that will be the end of what was always a temporary problem, since there's no such thing as a permanent person anyway. No matter the person, their lifespan is temporary.

Get the Temporary problem mug.One day the problem child won't be here anymore, and that will be the end of what was always a temporary problem (at least the end of one temporary problem), since there's no such thing as a permanent person anyway. No matter the person, their lifespan is temporary.
