Weird

[damselindistress]

Do people ever call you weird?

[Shakti]

Yes, but I take it as a good thing. It means you're different. And let's face it, life would be pretty boring if everyone was the same.

Also, what is normal? It doesn't exist. Because everyone has their own definition of normal that they apply to a certain situation or person. Though most people aspire to follow Social norms which indicate the established and approved ways of doing things, of dress, of speech and of appearance. Social norms change over time and vary between different social groups and classes.

What may be considered normal by one social group may be considered "weird" by another.

As tempted as I am to explain the game theory of Social norms, I think I've said enough already

Yuh huh, but everyone's werid really

Most people I know call me wired. I am not even sure what is wired about me even if I did I would never change unless its cause others distress or some thing liek that. I don't mind it most of the time, it just annoys me when some one say "your wired but not in a bad way". Wtf is that all about? If I am wired fair enough but theres no need to add silly comments at the end to make me feel even more self conscious.

I'm always called weird because I prefer to spend time on forums instead of going out having meaningless sex and drinking stupid amounts of alcohol.

I know exactly what you mean by that statement. Same here.
