Just who is 'they'? No one told you anything. There is nothing to see here. Move along please, move along.

Normal people - the term is derived from the social norm, that being the mode, the most popular. Therefore normal people are the people with the most common interests and beliefs. Not to be confused with stereo types, i.e. all men like football. A high percentage may, and it may be a popular sport however they may not be termed as being normal because of other contributing factors such as their behaviour after a foot ball match may be anti-social and not normal. Therefore as statted before normal people are of the mode populus of shared beliefs and interests.
But it would be very dull without everyone else!

Sorry can't help you I have never met a normal person, but guess if you ask the perfect people we also hear so much about then maybe they might be able to tell you, as we all have flaws and make mistakes then I would say no one is normal, just human.

Couldn't get much more normal than me. Look at my picture, just a simple square grey face. Always have a smile on my face though. If I stand in the right direction I can pick up most Sky channels, which is a bit of a bonus

Normal does not exist with in an individual. Only in a group of people can it be. That happens when we take all the weirdness in the world, and average it all out, saying we are all weird in this way, let's call that normal.

A misconception, because normal is a relative term based on perspective, and everyone's perspective is different. Or that 4 letter word that some people use to describe themselves, when they're the ones that need some serious help

normal is an illusion created by the majority of people to feel better about what they do, the majority of people conform to one another, they follow someone's example because they think that person does it right, and the rest follow that persons example because that person is doing it, there you have it, to be normal you have to be like someone else that someone thinks is normal therefore you must conform and sacrifice all that makes you an individual. thats who the normal people are, the ones who live in fear of being called different........hope that helped

"Normal" is a myth. The wise philosopher Stan (a bartender I worked with many years ago), used to say that normal is simply the average of abnormal. Circular logic, I know, but it works.
Of course, he also used to say that he never drank before dark, but "You know, it's always dark somewhere!". So there you go.

Who are these odd balls that keep telling you about normal people?

"Normal people" constantly change. For example, it was normal to own slaves way back when, but now it's against the law and considered unethical.
