How do you embrace normal?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) August 29th, 2013

Reading threads here, or article in the real world people use the word normal often, not really thinking of the term because the word “normal” was not in question. Someone would have posted that they said, ”That family was so NORMAL, I never would have guessed they were running a $40,000 a month meth operation out of their basement, ”She was a good student, a cheerleader, she did all the normal high school things, I can’t imagine what made her stab her classmate to death”, etc. Often times people get so PC that they avoid coining anything as normal because it might be seen as a negative. Or some people distort what normal is as to make it quite nebulous. Do you embrace normal and accept that normal does exist, and there is a normal for many things. Do you manipulate normal to fit what a group, government, or peers think, or do you see normal as none existence but a personal belief?
