You might think it would be pretty hard to belittle a dwarf like Verne Troyer - but one hater was certainly willing to try!

The tiny Troyer was lunching at the Ivy with a hot (and tall - go Verne!) blonde yesterday afternoon, when out of nowhere a pap started making loud, nasty allegations!

The pap accused Troyer of leaving his ex-wife broke, addicted to drugs, and on the verge of suicide.

Troyer, however, sat there stunned and did his best to not react - even to the news of his ex-wife spending time in a mental hospital!

That pap got off easy - Verne may have tiny feet, but they can kick a ton of ass!
