Interesting that Ghengis Khan was only 5'1" though.
He made up for it in other ways, though...
Oh my word. I've just read some of the blog by the little "homunculus" 🙄 Apparently he likes to liberally sprinkle what he thinks are 'big' words around. Small man syndrome indeed. Almost every entry refers to his height at some point and the vapid content smacks of a modern day 'American Psycho' for London in the 'tweens'. I can just see him creaming his pants over whatever the Hoxton version of a fancy business card is...
YAWN.

Big salary?
Eurgh, this Jeremy bloke sounds like a prime chough nut. There is no bigger turn off than a man talking about his salary. I can actually feel myself healing over.
On another short man note, I once had a boss who was 5' 4", he was awesome and definitely didn't have short man syndrome. He laughed when I put his kid's car booster chair in the driver's seat 😆
fake
Shirley not real? No one's that desperate and pathetic are they?!
Never underestimate the desperation of a big man in a little body.
Although those who are only 5' 11.5" can often run them close in that respect...
Advertising - what a soulless dire self important industry
Oops. I see a few of you taller guys are getting prejudicial. Stop victimising us little people by using phrases like 'small man syndrome'. You've never been on the receiving end of heightism. And just because I've made a bob or two in the corporate world and want to encourage fellow homunculi to stand up and be proud, you attack me with insults. Which is exactly why I'm out there fighting in the first place. Now why can't we all get on? Shame
Few, if any, have said how tall they are, just your paranoia! I said you were desperate and pathetic, nothing about your height!
Good troll though.
Taller guy? I'm a female. I happen to ride mountain bikes. Now who's being prejudiced?...
I don't care about your height, or your bank balance. You sound like a berk, the rhyming slang origin of which I'm sure someone of your purported intellect will be aware...
Good troll though.
+1, not good enough to illicit another post my lofty heights though 🙄
It's a great parody.
I'd suggest done by an agency copywritter. (grammar is too good for a CEO or a Creative)
😆
Are Cuban heels tax deductible?
Jesus jojoA1! Do girls ride mountain bikes too? As well as small blokes? I'd never have guessed the world of mountain biking had so much pent up aggression waiting to be unleashed on random targets. What started as a good laugh has degenerated into insults. I haven't insulted anyone and won't.
This is hollythanthoughtrackworld.com!
I like it, it's a great way of having a second persona.
i mean what do you think you could do better if you was taller?
Ride a 29er?
Is 5'4" short then?
It's certainly not as short as the website makes out - it makes it look as though it's half the height of the average UK male...
Bokonon. I work in advertising. Expect a degree of exaggeration.
I'm not sure what the point of all this is...
Is it about highlighting prejudice against short men, or a practical joke trying to make ad agencies look arrogant?
Onward Communications (who JP claims to be CEO of), has no website (at least that I can find which means SEO isn't up to scratch) and apparently only him and a creative director on Linked In (no photo on either) and very few connections for senior agency people
No ad agency would go without a website - it's a prime opportunity to show the quality of their creative and strategic thinking and showcase their client list and their best work. Equally, new business and agency reputation depend massively on networking. a CEO with 88 connections on LinkedIn doesn't fit with agency behaviour...

For an adult male, yes.

Pretty crap site for an ad agency though if it really exists.

IT'S NOT REAL!
Stop worrying. 8)
Www.onwardadvertising.co.uk. First page on Google. Our Creative Director, Sebastian Decker, is a man of few words. He designed the website. PS He doesn't know what SEO is. He sees himself as an artist
surely , the right size is when your feet touch the ground ?
Bokonon. I work in advertising. Expect a degree of exaggeration.
Ah - that explains the claimed salary.
Tiger. We are real. Well I am anyway. Sebastian lives in an entirely different world. But so do most Creative Directors. If you're a potential client with a big enough budget, we can meet for coffee?
Jeremy, what do you reckon to this for a bit of advertising?
um. that's not a website, it's a virtually blank webpage. It won't give clients any confidence in the quality of your strategic thinking, creative thinking or web/social capability. If you can't market yourselves, how'll you sell their brand?
Creative Directors IME do live in the real world - usually extraordinarily talented and insightful people if a little temperamental...
I'm really missing your point here.
I'm not a client, I have no budget, sorry. 😐
Tiger. It's almost as clever as you.
Trolllol!! Why the **** do you want to work in such a horrible world as Advertising?! on that salary Id've quit after 6 months and found a nicer life and people to be around.
Bill Hicks has thoughts on this
It's just that others look down on small men
We have to, otherwise we wouldn't see you.
OP, "Please someone tell me this is some sort of media trick to make me feel the need to spread the word of his website (which has no content)? Or is he just a tool?".
Pah!
Most. Pointless. Thread. Ever.
been here long davosaurusrex? the pointless ones are the best! 😀
Some are funny. This one sucks.
I'm gonna side with Davo on this one. Judging by the threads he's started, I'd say he is STW's expert on crap threads 🙂
Disingenuous self important patronizing pile of onanistic time wasting turd.
Yep, that's my summary after re-reading this.
THRUSH
Obvious troll is obvious. But doesn't have to stoop when lurking under bridges, which is bad for posture.
I don't think I have ever seen such a blatant troll in my life!...
OP - no-one cares how short (or tall) you are or how much you earn.
To the rest of the STW'ers, happy new year..
I'm really jealous of him,but then I'm a 5'2" pauper with a micro penis,so we've probably got a lot in common really.
@ peterfile, sorry referenced you, re OP when was referring to that short @rsed bloke... 😆
