sad but true, if i do say so myself. i walk around and i see no "normal" looking ppl anymore. noone seems to dress normally or even behave normally. only ppl i see that i would consider "normal" are like older ppl who are like nearing retirment age who have manners and dont look strange, but sometimes even THAT isnt true. ive seen older ladies dressing like 20 year olds, ugh! i mean, the whole "emo" punk thing has taken over, and the "rap/hip hop" style as well. todays youth is so lost its not even funny, like noone bothers to tell them that they look like freaks of nature, and if you do, they will probably like that :wow:. personally, i consider myself to be more on the normal side. sure i got my own wierdnesses like everyone else, like the fact i talk on SSH lol, but i guess its more private and i dont announce it to the world like kids these days like to. but when i go out of the house, i try to be you know, kind courteous polite, i dont dress like...weird or anything. like i dont dress like an emo, or wear pants that hang off my ass or anything or do the weird backwards baseball cap thing which i see alot and it looks soooo corny. i dress....like, normal. least i would think so. and the whole shaved head/crew cut thing, when did THAT start to look good? it makes guys look like neo nazi's or aliens, depeneding on the shape of there head. i thought the whole cheesy eminem/****** thing ended years ago. apparantly not.

anyway, i know i sound like an old man, but i guess im just old fashioned and i dont like the style or things i see young ppl doing today. girls are allowed to get away with wearing super shorts skirts and wearing practically nothing. years ago, that was not accepted at all, it was looked down upon and ppl thought that m,aybe you were a protitute or something. even older women going after young guys is starting to be considered normal, its not! anyway, this society seems to have gone to crap and its just soo sad and WEIRD!
 
^^ thats what i mean. nowadays, we're living ina very liberal society where "anything goes". um, no, not for those of us that have morals and standards.
 
Oops everybody...quick...conform to obiwan's standards of normalcy :eek:, because he is the sole decider of what is normal and normality is what we all must strive for.....because, when you're lying on your death bed, you want to rest easy, and sigh your last breath and realize, "YEAH! I WAS 100% NORMAL. It was a worthwhile LIFE!"!

Let's see if I've got everything.

  • no backwards baseball caps
  • no short skirts
  • no crew cuts (that one's puzzling to me, because when I was a kid, those were THE sign of a normal guy....When did this change, Lord obiwan?)
  • no low-hanging trousers
  • no shaved heads (if you're bald, do a comb over, because combovers are normal)
  • old ladies must wear only clothing for old ladies
  • if you like comics and posting on comicbook message boards, keep it a secret

What else, Lord obiwan?!

i dont think it takes a rocket scientist to see how none of this stuff is really normal. and curseing has also become pretty "normal". thats screwed up.

really, doesnt anyone on these boards have any sense of morals or decency enough to see how sh**ty things have gotten? wierd IS the new normal, and its sad to see.

How about keeping the Grammer "Old Fashioned". ppl & noone dunt thnk its culz, y'no, ftw
 
...so sad.

So, so sad.

obiwan shake his head at all the weird stuff that makes him feel uncomfortable:csad:
 
Eh. I say more power to anyone and everyone that I see. If they dress the way they dress and feel comfortable and happy with their lives. More power to them. Being YOURSELF is far more important than being NORMAL.
 
Those who subscribe to the really nutty new fashion trends/weird behaviour are the ones who are going to look back in twenty years and say "what was I thinking?" more than the rest of us who try and keep it mainstream.

Plus, what's up with the lastest 'granny fashion'?

but who's to say that your morals and sense of decency are better/more correct than anyone else's? why do you get to set the standard that everyone else has to adhere to?
 
Doesn't 'normal' stem from how you perceive the majority? So, obiwan, if most people are weird and you are not, doesn't that make them the majority - normal - and you the weirdo?

It's pretty obvious that you're just doing an act to stir people up because you're bored, and that you don't really believe this stuff, because...in one sentence, you moan about how horrible it is that cursing has become normalized...and then you say "s***ty".

Please put more thought into the motivations of the character you will be playing when you try to stir people up on the internet. :o
 
I embrace it actually. It shows that individuality is more easily expressed now a days, despite how hip or popular it might be. There was probably a time when you were a kid that you ran around the house with a towel around your neck, like most of us on here. When you want to be a part of something first thing you try and do is dress the part. Yes, I agree that emo is lame and i often ask myself, "When did vampire girls get so fat?" but i appreciate the fact that I can choose to be a part of it or not. Its just like TV. If you don't like the channel, then you don't watch it. Just be happy your a square type of dude and leave it at that. Nobody really knows what normal is, anyway.

The most perfect point, but he'll never be able to wrap his brain around it. :(
 
****, lets start asking some real questions. Like, what is real? How do you define real? If real is what you can feel, smell, taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain.
 
I know what you're trying to do . . . :rolleyes:

So what's normal to you? You seem to really dislike trends, but every generation has their own fashion trends.

Haha! Death by Cerebral Core Meltdown for the thread starter.

Obiwan, what puzzles me is that you say "starting" like this stuff is new. Girls wearing short skirts, the "rap look", and older women going after younger men aren't recent developments. Personally, if how we look is the worst problem our society has, I think we're pretty well off.

Unfortunately...
