How do you personally define "normie?"

And why don't you think you're one?

Please, go into extensive, autistic detail. I'm keeping this thread open all day.

I define normie as "one who functions normally, without anxiety issues that impede everyday life, and socializes without intense fear of repercussions".
>>
>>29794603
a normie is anyone that isn't a socially inept autist
>>
Social aptitude and adoration for popular media are the most important factors

I'm 25 year old KV
I've never been in a relationship.
I don't have any friends.
I don't have any dreams or ambitions.
I'm short, ugly and have a small dick.

I feel disconnected from the rest of the world and can't connect with anyone else because the only people who can even remotely relate to me or understand my feeling are people from r9k. Even then, most of the faggots who post here are young and have redeemable qualities, so I feel like I'm slowly being weeded out of here.

I sometimes look through the Twitters of my old high school classmates and they all retweet and follow the same "Black Twitter" bullshit. I don't get it.
>>
Someone for whom socialization and relationships come naturally.

If you never had to put in effort to understand non-verbal cues, you're a normie.

There's a show in the Uk called Love Island, which is basically a reality show where Stacies and Chads get into short lived relationships on an island and get genuinely upset when these break down. I'd recommend it to any robots in the Uk as when you view it as a sociological study of normies it becomes way more interesting.

I'm using the UD definition because they pretty much nailed it:

>A derogatory term used to insult the antithesis of most internet dwellers. Normalfags are typically people who enjoy mainstream things and live typical, ignorant, mundane lives. Some of the most common normalfag traits are ignorance to internet culture and underground media such as less well known music, anime, or video games.

For me it's all about their weakness against irl memery, I remember it was especially bad back when How I Met Your Mother was popular. People would start repeating what they heard on the show (the three-day rule etc) without acknowledging that they heard it on the show, and completely ignoring the fact that they have never talked like that before. And of course changing their fb profile pictures to some kind of flag whenever something happens, or unironically participating in hashtags.

Normies don't have any introspection or perspective so it's only natural that they freak out over the most trivial shit.
>>
Normie is someone who's not a virgin, not counting hookers.
Someone who's never got laid but has an active social life, goes out frequently and has more than a handful of friends is also a normie.
I have got laid, so fortunately I am a normie, but I spent a lot of time as a robot so I still relate to them sometimes.

What the fuck does the average normie even think about everyday, all memery aside? I've tried talking to so many of my old normie 'friends' from high school and they're all completely clueless about all their surroundings and everything else. I can't relate to a single one of them, even a little bit. All they want to talk about is sex and video games.

Alcohol is a great mental painkiller, to be fair.

this tbqh withya famalam
it genuinely intruiges me what normies think about and how they can center their entire existence around socialising and being "cool".
I personally spend most of my time pondering philosophy or vidya, and thats because i overanalyse the fuck out of stuff, but what the fuck do normies think about during the day?
if you are looking for answers, try reserching solipsism, for me it's becoming the only realistic ideology to follow.
seriously tho, what the fuck occupies their thoughts? are their brains just so unbelevably slow that the simplest scenario takes an age to process? i dont get it tbqhwy
>>
>>29795068
Robots know no sex, but why can't you talk about video games?

Well I'm kind of a normie. I'd qualify as cyborg, which for most people here equals normie shit.
With that out of the way, a norme for me is a person who
>follows mainstream media like an automaton
>conforms to the study-work-die plan
>consumes a lot of bullshit, specially shit featured in mainstream media
>Has absolute pleb tastes, mainly because he's been taught, yes, by media and their surroundings. Such things include shitty hip-hop top 40 music, football, the bazooka theory...
>Does everything to please others or to fill a mold of what the surroundings has imposed on him/her on what is acceptable.
>Can barely think for himself/herself beyond some learned preconceptions
>Values money, bitches, party.
But mostly, and probably underlying some of these points
>Has but a superficial view of everything in life and is happy with just following trends and the crowd without question
>>
>>29794603
I define them as people who exhibit orthodox behaviour. The most important criteria for being labelled as a normie is, in my opinion, thinking with the group, which is having the same attitudes as the majority.
>>
>>29795208
Also I'm not much into any of these fields, my normal traits are that I can socialize and talk to people somewhat confidently, sometimes.
I don't like strangers, I'm very suspicious of new people, I don't like big social situations, nor I care about partying and such
I just can hold a conversation, albeit not a very interesting one unless you happen to like math or computers.
I can even talk to girls confidently, yet I cannot get gf or even secs for the life of me
>>
>>29795348
The normie's main purpose is to contribute to society by conformity and work, and the normie recognizes this
>>
>>29795208
>the bazooka theory
what is this
>>
>>29795393
>and the normie recognizes this

Do they, honestly? I always thought normies had zero self-awareness and trauma.
>>
>>29795348
>thinking with the group, which is having the same attitudes as the majority.
you can still think with the group even if that group is currently the minority. that's what most of 4chan is. it's what i would consider edgy-normie or even ultra-right-wing-normie. i have no respect for these people either.

How will friends make a person a normie?
>>
>>29794603
being a normie has mostly to do with how well you can go with the flow of the society around you without thinking about it or worrying too much.

normies are people who wear clothes, watch shows, listen to music, speak words and phrases, work jobs, and generally exhibit behaviors that are very memetically popular in their surrounding area, which gives them effortless acceptance. They get work, friendship, sex, love, etc without really trying -- it just shows up for them and they take it for granted.

Being a non-normie is being a fish out of water. The fish doesn't realize how important water is until it's gone. The reason that we hate normies is because we are all out of water and we need help, and all they ever say to us us "just wiggle your fins, you can do it, life is what you make it" and we try in vain to explain to them that we can't swim because there is no water. They simply don't understand the concept of "no water" because they've never been out of the water, and they assume we haven't either, so we must be just too lazy to use our fins.

>>29795033
>>Gets Bs and Cs in most tests, with the occasional A
Yeah, nothing stopping a real robot from being an underachieving pos though.
>>Uses facebook
Fine if to talk with family and what friends you have but facebook is pretty much cancer.
>>Drinks beer
Eh, if you're doing it to drown sorrows/pain or for pleasure and not for social reasons that's pretty robotic.
>>
>>29795100
Yeah, I'm all for alcohol to end the suffering.
Vodka, whiskey, liqueurs, etc. are all great for this, but fancy cocktails for girls and beer for guys are just used for social status, not to help them forget.
>>
>>29795727
Opiates are even better but they're delicacies where I live. I don't feel like trying to swallow my pride and getting into heroin so I'm left wishing I had oxy everyday.

Should I just start knocking on people's doors and asking to use their bathroom so I can look through their medicine cabinets? Do people do this?
>>
Only if you knew how cucked things really are.

>>29795033
>>>Has more than 50 people she would consider friends
Remove this, we need to be harder on women who claim to be robots.

A normie is a kissless virgin who has never had a girlfriend. KV's aged 0-17 obviously are still normies since they're kids, 18 is the cut off point.

If you have had relationships but you're still a KV, you're a failed normie, not a robot.
>>
>>29795844
To be fair, fat women could definitely be women because fat women are always repulsive but yeah, women can't really be robots.
>>
>>29795604
I basically define it as being accepted in some way. friendship is a kind of acceptance isn't it?
>>
>>29795877
*could definitely be robots

Dammit.
>>
>>29795877
Theoretically they can, I wasn't saying that it's impossible, just that if you have more than 10 friends you're normie regardless of gender.
>>
>>29795913
Of course, of course.

All in all, it depends entirely on how socially in-tune you've been since the beginning.

I think it should be 20, 20 is the age where most people have been in the work force for a while and/or spent 2 years of college.

Each Internet subculture has the opposite normies.

If you don't wear Lolita, you're a normie to /cgl/. If you listen to the radio, you're a normie to /mu/. If you don't do magic, you're a normie to /x/. And on and on

Let's say I meet a person at my job (customer service oriented). I talk to each customer for 5-20 minutes, and they all ask the same questions.

They ask how I am. I'm never okay. I'm so, so unhappy. I know they don't want to hear this, so I usually lie and say "fine," but lying hurts and it makes me feel even more alone and hopeless. So somtimes, I tell them I'm not happy, and they ask why.

I can't get laid, I have few friends and little human contact, I have no job prospects or hope for the future, I feel bad and alone all the time, etc.

Without error, every single one of those fucking reptiles gives me the shallowest, most worthless response to my problems. No friends? "Make some." How? Sorry, no details on that one. I guess just go catch one like they're pokemon. The normie logic is "I have friends, so it must be easy to get friends any time you want." When I tell them otherwise, they dismiss me. "It'll happen for you." It obviously won't.

The same thing goes for jobs, etc. All they ever say is just "if you don't have something, then stop not having it and start having it," oblivious to the important steps they're leaving out in the middle.

I don't hate them because they're stupid. It's that they don't care, but they pretend to. I would be happier if one of them would just say "That's a sad problem to have, but I can't help." But do they say that? No, they ALL make themselves into such SAINTS. "OHHH I AM SO SURE THAT YOU WILL HAVE YOUR DREAM LIFE SOON. I AM YOUR ANGEL OF BLESSING, AND MY EMPTY WISHES MAKE ME FEEL BETTER ABOUT WHO I AM BUT DO NOT ACTUALLY DO ANYTHING TO HELP YOU."

They don't realize that even just passing through my life, they are the closest thing I have to salvation. I need one of them to grab me by the hand and pull me into some part of their lives. I know I'm smart and likeable and capable and talented, I just need a chance, and no one will give me one... but they still want to be treated like they're on my side.

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Everybody that's genuinely happy is a normie.

>>29796282

You tell retail customers about your shitty life?

How have you not gotten punished for being negative?
>>
>>29796349
fucking normie.

why do people ask "HOW ARE YOU" if they don't want to know? It hurts me even more to lie. Telling people I'm fine all day drives me insane. I'm not fine. I'm not fine. I'm not fine. I'm not happy to serve you. I have no hope. Why did you have to bring it up? I don't want to lie and say I'm well when I know I have to go home and be alone and watch another day pass by with nothing to hope for. Why do you have to RUB IT IN?

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
