How are you not normal?

I think I'm pretty normal. Besides, what the hell is normal anyway?

health, personality, sexuality, socialization, and disability (but that's kind of health, isn't it?)

The only thing I know of about me that's an extreme deviation from the norm are some of my personal beliefs. Socialization, personality, intelligence and goals may be a little bit different but not too much.

How are age, politics, race and religious beliefs related to normalcy???

I can see how a person's religion can be 'not normal'. Cults come to mind.

I'm completely normal. It's the rest of the world that's abnormal.

The term "normal" is too general. What's "normal?"

First define normal.

Maybe in politics I am not normal and what I believe in may differ from other people
and what does it really matter to anybody

> First define normal.


Ok' President George Bush??

I am perfectly normal.
















OH god, I couldn't keep a straight face....I do not recognize what normal is. There is no normal. This ought to be a monkeee. Monkeeees are normal.

Jeez, these "normal" surveys sure seem to bother people.

My politics and sexuality are certainly outside the bounds of average, maybe even far enough out to be abnormal.

You'd have to ask someone else I guess.

i am normal in every way

Is that normal?

oh, bother!

promise me something

intelligence
personality
socialization
other

Yes sir?

In the usual ways.

Define...normal
Depending on how you define it...I could be all of these or none of these.

Ugh

Height and weight... and my depression. I think this question would have better been asked as 'How are you not average?' or something similar... since 'normal' is so subjective.

Personality, politics, and sexuality.

Goals in life- basically is 'don't freak out' it's the goal of my everyday in fact; health, I've covered that; I'm kinds short, 5' even; above average intelligence- at least that's what the test said before I had surgery; I don't think anyone is normal in personality; politics- often conflicting myself; religious beliefs- I guess I qualify as a sort of pagan like; sexuality- I'm really gay; socialization- I need medication to make it possible and I'm still hesitent.

What the hell is going on with your avatar? Is it supposed to look like a rodent?

I think I am normal.

don't ever change your avatar

I think "nerdy" is more what the artist was going for, but now that you mention it, I see similarities to a rat.

Are you kidding? Where do I start?

I do not measure myself by any standards related to perceived social "norms". This is an illusion. It can be damaging to self esteem to hold yourself to what others deem "normal".

It's abnormal to take it personally, sillyhead

I'M A FREAK!!!

That's why we love you!

I should charge admisssion...

One leg is shorter then the other, and one arm is longer then the other how can a person ever be normal

What is your obsession with my avatar?

um... maybe I should seek professional help.

I am very much above average height. And I love every inch of it.

> other how can a person ever be normal

Didn't you know that was normal.
I'm serious it is. People have one arm longer than the other and one leg shorter than the other... One foot is usually bigger than the other also.
Etc etc etc...
(as Yul Brynner said in Anna and the King)

I think you should get an avatar like mine...only with your eye.

Also one breast bigger than the other, eyes and ears one higher than the other. That is normal. What isn't normal but considered beauty is those that are blessed with near perfect symmetry.

I don't think I could make one that looks as good... it's not just your eye, you know... it's the way your eye is looking off into space, and the cropping.. it's hard to describe, but it's just appealing, like art, to me. Such things are hard to imitate well. But, I'll give it a try. Maybe in a day or two... I need to keep my current angel avatar up to convince cloudy to tell me her laughable beliefs first.

He he that is funny' and have you seen on Discovery Health channel the 2 women that share one body
and they have 2 heads?

And no they cannot be separated from one another by surgery and there also was 2 men sharing
the same body together
and one head loves to eat pizza and the other head loves a different kind of food and
they both have to watch the same channel on television and both listen to same music

that would probably drive me wild and crazy'

and I could not begin to imagine another head and brain sharing my body how freakish

How true and something to think of because it just freaks me out, and it is beauty at the heart

I'm not normal cause i'm a health freak!! I'm always in the gym and all the time trying to eat better.
Plus i'm 4'11"

> What isn't normal but considered beauty

Yeah see now that's fudgeed up I agree.

That is crazy but at least you'd always have someone to talk to!

> That is crazy but at least you'd always have someone to talk to!
>

How true I would have somebody to talk with and not be so bored, but we would be fighting on
who gets to take a bath or shower and of course we both have to at the same time

And fighting and arguing' over our body we share
and grocery shop together and who gets what?

And with 2 heads attached to each other how on earth do we sleep at night, one will be keeping the other awake
and the other head needs some sleep Enigma

And how about the 2 that have 2 body's attached at the torso and how do they manage to use the toilet
is beyond me

I cannot begin to imagine 2 body,s trying to use the toilet get out of my way"

Oooo I'm a whole inch taller than you! I feel like a giant.

...

Yay! You have an eye avatar.

By the way, I did not crop that picture at all. It is exactly how it was originally. Caleb took it. Maybe he should be a photographer.

That makes it even cooler!

That's how alot of people feel.

hey,,,what the hell....
Look what I just found.........you changed your angle for a JOKE! TO laugh at!? Laughale?!!

Asolutely, I would encourage it, if he likes it now, even if he loses interest. When he gets interested again in his grown up years, he wil e that much ahead. I think the photo is great. I would agree with bill, but I'm pissed at him right now.

Caleb's always taking pictures. A lot of them are pretty cool. But, when he takes them of me, he always ends up making my nose look even bigger than it really is.

Why are you mad at god Bill?

He assumed my theories about God would be laughable. Granted, they may be...but he assumed they would be. Bah!

How dare him.

Indeed.

Well, you had said this...

> Honestly, if I told you what I really believed, you would think I was joking.

oh But I was kidding!!!!!

well, so was I... when I said that to Amanda...

All kidding aside...I knew you were kidding. I just reacted like I found a secret note or soemthing. I was having fun. I didn't see one of these looking at me.

All of the above

health, personality, politics, religious beliefs, and socialization.
