Poll question: Are you normal?
Just wondering; I don't think I've yet met anyone who considers him or herself to be normal, but then, I don't get out much. And you?

8. Let me put it this way:
If you think anyone is normal, then you just don't know that person well enough!

:P

9. I am so normal...
That you wouldn't pick me out of a lineup.
Or...you'd pick me every time.
I am the average man.
I am invisible.

10. Yup... and proud of it.
Yup... and rather proud of it I might add.

Actually, I imagine most people believe themselves to be abnormal (the ever-so-trendy, edgy, wanker-hip commercialized kind that looks good on bumper stickers)-- a salacious bit of self-validation if ever there was. I imagine most people also think themselves above-average intelligence too. And more insightful than most. And much more clever too they think to themselves as they pull on the ripped jeans, slogan-ized t-shirt and sandals that everyone is wearing to better separate themselves from what everyone else is wearing... :eyes:

I've never met a person who considers themselves to be a "sheep", only people who calls everyone else sheep. However, if that's the case, then either there must be 10,000 shepherds for every one sheep, or (and I find this more likely), we're all sheep to some degree, as are we all shepherds to some degree too.

16. I'm a 6'1" black woman..
Of course, I'm not normal. But the more people get to know me beyond the exterior, the more they realize that I'm stranger than they thought. Not in a bad way though. I think most people would describe me as being really silly, yet really smart. I've been called a "weirdo" many times over the years, but I've learned to wear it as a badge of honor. I love my weirdness. It makes me "me".
