I HATE THE NORMS
I hate normal people.They are the reason everything is normal and shitty and franchised up the ass, retarded, lazy and boring. NORMS have money and they are everywhere so the corporate world caters to them. The way big business treated people used to be considered humiliating because people were smart enough to realize that, now it makes sense and is so convenient. No it isn’t NORMS , we are at an all-time lowbrow. It is the beginning of Idiocracy everywhere. Have you ever heard NORMS riff? Lines like “Ummm I’ll have some of what you are on.” or when you are at an ATM they say “Can you get some money for me too?. No I can’t shit head and that’s not even funny. If I turned around and saw a 70 year-old, fine I can live with that riff but do not be 28 and wearing Seinfeld pants or a fucking faux-hawk with a bullshit “Joe’s towing” t-shirt. JESUS get some self respect. In fact look at a NORM and tell me what year it is. I dare you. it is anywhere between 1993 and 2050 because they are in fucking normal Heaven. They will never change.

i don’t get it, are you hating on people in commercials, or hipsters, or posers, or people who read this website, or people named norm, or people in your family, or people in the town your family lives, or people who are like “i’ll have what you’re having, especially if it’s a big bowl of norm-hating”? be a little more specific?

been saying this about the LES since 02 when it all fucking began. now instead of the basehead video artists with aids and darby crash type graffers and homeless people reading comic books, we got kevin the 23 year old IT from denver and mike the fucking meathead from eastchester smacking their fuckin sandals down attorney like they own the fucking place. i hate normal guys way more than they hate fags.

“Look at ‘em, ordinary fucking people. I hate ‘em.”

Well, a lot of what Vice did was catering to the norms-
taking so-called ’street culture’ and packaging it into a consumer commodity that had a superficial edge, but at the end of the day was little more than a repository for American Apparel ads.
Wait, this isn’t Vice?
No, mad props man, this thing is much better.
I like the Black guy who doesn’t smoke too.

Jigga what? Perhaps I misunderstand you, but your usage of the term “norm” (or reg or whatever floats your boat) implies that you are deliberately trying to be “different.” Fucking LAME! If there is a “norm” look, then there must be an identifiable “different” look, thereby rendering you no better than the people you label norms. No. Actually, it makes you worse–more like the fucktards who think hot topic and depression makes them provocative.
So just to get things straight, here is a brief synopsis of my findings:
Normal*=mainstream, dockers, the gap, corny ass jokes n’ shit and money out the wazoo, top 40
Different*=American Apparel, thrift shops (basically recycled norm), smugness, irony, indie (undiscovered norm), feigned poverty (sponsored by norm parents who have money out the wazoo), indifference
Conclusion: Nobody is above labels or being trite, save the clinically insane. You want to get on some new edgy shit? Jam a thermometer up your urethra. Nobody’s doing that!
*Note: for the sake of time, I’m just covering the white version

to the Pied Piper and the like:
we all know that by saying identifying someone as “normal” we are implying that we are “different” and by doing that we are no better than those we hate and bla bla bla bla.
the point is that those people suck and we suck less even when we are at are suckiest!
there is a large group of people who’s likes we hate and who havn’t even heard of or cant fathom our likes. all we’re saying is that they are terrible, is that so bad? and im pretty sure EVERYONE of you alt boys and girls feel this way whether you want to admit it or not, because after all, if you admit this than you’re not hip, and we cant have that.

I get the point. it is definitely beyond the ovious. The “hipster” world is over normed too. There can be a IT guy that rules. It’s just soooooooooooo unfortunately rare The point is PLEASE just be interesting.
07.10.08 at 10:43 am
I nominate the internet.

“And last but not least”

See, an ordinary person spends their life avoiding tense situations. A repo man spends his life getting INTO tense situations.

“i hate normal guys way more than they hate fags”
word up bottoms!

I have to say, as much as I hate the norms, I hate norms masquerading as ‘different’, AKA the most stereotypical hipsters, far, far more. You try to talk to somebody dressed like they might be interesting at a party and it turns out they’re fucking dunces with no sense of humor who want to talk about TV or their shitty jobs, who call you bro and act tough to compensate for the fact that they feel like their tight pants might make them gay. That, or they play up the fey indie look for all its worth, listening to fucking boring, trite soft-rock abominations, the aural equivalent of the Gap. Fuck that, I’m glad I’m still metal, unlike all the hipsters who ‘used to listen to metal’ or ‘used to be punk’ so they could have some cred, as if they outgrew it and found something more intelligent. It’s all about taste.

chfi is terrible. when i was younger my friends mom would listen to delilah in the car. she spew’s terrible advice for dull people. you’d probably be disgusted by her. (in an awesome way)

I nominate everyone that came to NY after the trains look they do in that scene in Coming to America.
David Dinkin’s term was the death rattle of NYC’s non-norminess.
If Rudy was your first NY mayor YOU ARE A FUCKING NORM.

i had a guy in line at the grocery store pick up my case of beer from my side of the stick thing that divides your item from the rest and spout “I think i’ll take that”…then he continued on about his vacation, some kind of chewing gum that existed at some point, and that he’s originally from michigan
07.22.08 at 11:42 am
but i kind of like chfi?
they always play rick astley.
