Guy With Short Arms In American Horror Story

Okay, let's talk about something potentially controversial. It's about *American Horror Story*. Specifically, a certain character from *Freak Show*.

I'm talking about Meep. You know, the guy with the short arms.

My "Unpopular" Meep Opinion

Look, *Freak Show* was…intense. It had Twisty, the creepiest clown ever. It had Bette and Dot, the conjoined twins. But Meep? He was just...there.

And I’m ready to say it: I didn't get the Meep love. Did he tug at the heartstrings? Maybe a little. But iconic? I'm not convinced.

Was Meep Really That Important?

Now, I know some people are going to disagree. They'll say he represented the vulnerability of the freaks. They’ll say his death was tragic and symbolic.

I get it. He was a victim. But so was everyone else in that show! It was basically a season-long misery parade.

Honestly, his "meeping" just got on my nerves after a while. Sorry, not sorry.

The Short Arms Factor

Let's be real, his defining characteristic was his short arms. It's visually memorable, sure. But did it add depth to his character?

I'm not so sure. I felt like it was more of a spectacle thing. Like, "Look at the guy with the tiny arms!"

I'm probably being a terrible person. But this is my honest opinion! We all have them.

Other Freaks Were More Compelling

Think about Pepper. Her story was heartbreaking. Or Elsa Mars, the tragic German show woman. Even Twisty had a warped backstory that (sort of) explained his evil.

Meep? He meeped. He had short arms. He died. End scene.

I just feel like other characters deserved more screen time. Or at least more development. He felt like a prop.
