Discrimination against tall people.

Yes, it's true. Sometimes, being 6'3" can feel a little awkward. But, it's no reason to go around building objects to kill innocent people like me.

Signs don't make it better either. "Low clearance, please watch your head." <<>> And I'm still looking for the mirror. Really, if I put a huge trap right in the middle of a park or mall with man-eating tigers in it, ready to eat you alive, with a sign--"Man-Eating Tigers, Please Watch Your Step"—there would be those of you who just might not like it a whole lot. I bet you would even be a little ticked off. I mean, it could ruin your day just like this beam (pictured below) has and will continue to ruin mine and that of many of my vertically enhanced friends. Things like this just aren't funny.  I'm pretty sure the smallest kid in class--who was bitter growing up that he was overlooked or picked on--devised these instruments of mass destruction with an evil little snicker.

Just the other day I was helping move a bunch of furniture for this older really really shor...ahem... vertically challenged man and I quickly realized that if you work for someone who is lacking in perpendicular you had better assume it's a hard hat site. You should only enter at your own risk without a hard hat. You also assume all responsibility for damages made to the noggin. This guy had things hanging from rafters that about put an end to my days more than one time. It's amazing I still have a head  on my shoulders at all.

This is me after nearly dying from a severe blow to my cranium... weak and feeble as it may be it is the only one I have so I don't appreciate low hanging, low clearance, or  low flying objects... or cold hot dogs for that matter!
