It’s so obnoxiously narcissistic. “Oh, I am so above the unwashed normal people. I am not stupid, like a commoner. I’m the special superior chosen one. The main character. Me me me!”
No you aren’t, nerd. You’re an egotistical asshole.
*the washed normal people
i’ve unironically run into dudes who think this. they need reeducation. and to wash their ass. :gamer-gulag:
More like Normie_NPC_Owl
Calling people “normies” made sense when the internet was small, but now it basically just means “democrats”
While NPC is definitely a bit yikes. Normie might just refer to average every day people (you know people who just want to grill or exist somewhere between liberal/centrist/conservatism). Normies are functioning members of society who might get their news from msnbc or foxnews but are very often much happier and healthier than the person that uses the word normie. If you unironically use the word normie you are to be pitied because its very likely that your existence is a sad one.
Normie = emotionally well-adjusted person who has found success in life and is generally content about their identity and lot in life
and they make me sick :bern-disgust:
So much of it feels like the “are we living in a simulation?” navel gazing pontification terminally online nerds routinely fall into.
Just the folks at the bottom of Plato’s cave, coming to blows over what the shadows on the wall mean.
Is this a “You criticize people on the computer and yet you are on the computer…” :very-intelligent: thing?
I didn’t make the rules, so it’s not for me to decide
NPC talk tbh :chad:
