the definition of "weird"

I was chatting with a friend of mine today and we were talking about someone we both know and how weird this person is. And the more we talked about it, the more I realized that I'm also extremely weird. And the more I thought about that, the more I realized that my friend is ALSO pretty strange when it comes right down to it. (Admit it, if you're reading this blog, you must be pretty atypical yourself!)

So now I'm wondering. Is weird the new normal? Is everyone so unusual that people who DON'T exhibit eccentricities and odd behaviours are now the weird ones?

There is no such thing as normal.

You can not find two people who will agree on what constitutes 'normal'. There is only what is normal for the individual. If someone's tastes change drastically, or if someone behaves outside his/her usual range of behaviour, then that is weird. But no matter how weird you think someone's behaviour is, it is proabaly normal for them.
