| Same as title. Do you consider yourself a social person or as the anime term coins it, a riajuu/normie/normalfag? As an added question if you're not, then how do you feel about normies? I kinda want to know if the anime stereotype of hating and those stuff are real. No insult meant from this. The quote was from Yahari and Boku wa Tomodachi ga Inai. Apparently people were using different subs. |

| I'm mostly introverted, but I'm trying to change that. Long bouts of awkward silence feels awful. |
| Now I see the secret of the making of the best persons. It is to grow in the open air and to eat and sleep with the earth. -Walt Whitman A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. -Robert A. Heinlein |
| I hang out with my brother most of the time, so we're pretty isolated from other people. I can still behave normally around people, I'm not a social outcast or anything, I actually have a pretty negative view of obnoxious people who hang out alone because they can't make friends but they're too superior to blame the issue on themselves so just say that they're alone because the others are stupid, which is a dumb statement in itself. Though there are not doubt people who are alone because they just like it that way, I have nothing against them, I just don't get it, people are awesome. |
| But introverted is normal. Actually a lot of people are ambiverts somewhere between introvert and extrovert. It's just a different way of needing to socialize, not normal or abnormal. |
| I think you're making a mistake to equate "normies" with anti-introversion (many stereotypical normies are ISTJ and ISFJ MBTI types, and MBTI and "introversion" are both derived from Jung). |

| I'm definitely introvert. I can't socialise with people, I try but I can't seem to get a long with anyone. My birthday is in a few days and my plan is to spend it alone drinking and watching anime Life is great |

| I really don't know. I act extroverted at college and like talk a lot with friends, but at the same time get exhausted by it too. Idk if that's introverted or not. Yep I like to think I'm kinda normal. |
| I would say I'm in between the two. I'll spend most of my free time usually being by myself but if there's any opportunity to be social I'll be glad to participate. |
when ur about to have a refreshing sip of earl grey tea and someone says "traps are gay" |
FloatingIdiot said: I think you're making a mistake to equate "normies" with introversion (for example ISTJ and ISFJ MBTI types are stereotypical normies), but the word itself is pretty cringey. I was rewatching Boku ga Tomodachi with someone and reading some of the older posts kinda clicked it, I'm not trying to be insulting. It just happens that the anime term would be the easiest to get. |
worldeditor11 said: traed said: But introverted is normal. Actually a lot of people are ambiverts somewhere between introvert and extrovert. It's just a different way of needing to socialize, not normal or abnormal. You are not making any sense. At one point you said introverted is normal. The next statement claiming the large existence of ambiverts which is a mix between of both introvert and extrovert traits within a person. The last sentence is my favourite though, concluding that introvert is neither normal or abnormal, which totally going against the first point of stating that having introvert traits are normal. Even though the conclusion refers to ambiverts, it still doesn't make any sense since as you say, ambiverts are common. Introvert is normal extrovert is normal ambivert is normal it's all normal Get it? |
| I guess I'm a bit of a normie... I have no issue with socialisation or anything I just happen to hate a lot of people because they like complete retards. I happen to be pretty proficient at being a retard myself so that says something... |
 |
| I'm probably somewhere in the middle of it. I can socialize with almost anyone under any circumstances and keep a conversation flowing easily, but don't go out of my way to. |
| I don't label myself with silly japanese words because they annoy me for some reason. |
| Well, everyone in my class thinks I'm extremely introverted for preferring to read during breaks instead of chatting with them. But you can't really count on their standards. Because most of them are extremely social. I'm not so normal for them which I don't mind. Yes, I do think both types are normals but not in my society's eyes. The thing is I can be social most of the times if I wanted to. But I don't. So for my limited normal times, it's good to talk with people now and then but I enjoy my time more doing things I like. |
| Thought normie was just someone who didn't spend all their time posting memes online.. Anyway, I'm definitely not social. |
| If you interact with at least one person a day, excluding family members, you are a normie. |
| Very social with the people I'm already comfortable with. But very introverted when around strangers though only in person. (If I were introverted online as well, I probably wouldn't be on the forums at all.) When online, I can still express myself but can't engage in conversation that easily/casually with others. So a normie.... I suppose? |

| a normie would imply that i talk to people so nah |
| I'm incredibly introverted if I didn't have a job or was not enrolled on a college course, I doubt i'd leave my house, tragic existence right |

| I used to be shy and introverted, but since 10th grade I've become a lot more social. I'm not gonna be some energetic party guy, but I can start and carry conversations more easily. |
| I'm not normal, and that's okay. I'm very pessimistic and most of the world doesn't share my hobbies. So what? Society is fucked, so I doubt all these normal people are doing things right. |

| Being an introvert is abnormal now? And being an extrovert is enough to qualify you as normal? There sure must be a lot of abnormal people running around then. ISFJ is supposed to be the most common personality type. ISTJ and ISFP are very common as well. What a world we live in. |
 |
| I think i'm an extrovert and introvert. I like talking to people and if given chance i'd be the one who initiate a new topic conversation. But at the same time, i don't like being in the middle of attention of large group. And i would rather shut myself in than going outside. |
| I'm not normal enough for the "normies" and too normal for the not-"normies" Middle ground is hell. |
| I'm introverted as hell but I don't come off that way and I look like the opposite of a nerd lol |

| Does not knowing the term normie make me a normie? I'm actually quite social when I want to be. Which is not often. |
| I'd say I'm in between. I'm not an introvert, but I'm not an extrovert either. I spend time with myself but I don't mind socializing with friends or participating in discussions with other people though. I just don't always go out of my way to do so. |

| Yes, which is why I pretend to be a dank memester over the internet. |
| lmao no and i dont know how i feel about normies /shrug it's like theyre a different race |

| im asocial ever since i got sick so im not normal at all |
| I'm in constant conflict regarding social interaction. I'm never completly sure if I should go along with the masses or detach from them |
 |
| i'm still scratching my head about what "normal" has to do with social interaction there is nothing wrong with being an introvert. it does not mean you are abnormal it means you are an introvert |

| That seems like a nonsensical thing to do. |

| im very introverted and only go out if i absolutly have to. Also i got social anxiety. I dont hate on "normies" as i think social and talkative people are the best cause then they do the talking most of the time |

People typically mistaken socially awkward people as introverts, it isnt true. And I wasnt one of thee ones doing so. Nah its still a thing. It's like a spectrum between needing to be aaround people and needing to have alone time. |
| That's not what being a normie is about, normie: |
That looks exactly like my attendance rate in high school, cept my punctuality was also similar to my attendance rate. OT: Normies are too normal, I'm edgy. |
