@funbaker @lori "Not normal" isn't an insult, necessarily. "Normal" is that which common, or average. I don't think it was meant in a derogatory sense here. "Average" might have been a clearer word here, maybe? This is how I took it, anyway.

@funbaker @lori I wonder if there’s a language issue here; in some cultures “normal” is value neutral, synonymous with terms like “mainstream”, whereas others see it as a positive, so calling someone “not normal” is a put-down
