So in your own words.

 Someone half way across the country is definitely not doing your normal.

 The opposite of abnormal...lol 
 
 Accurate lol 
 Can't miss....lol 
 Maybe there is just chaos (or we are too human to understand the chaos) and then it’s a matter of perspective. „The average opinion“ is probably considered as normal. 
 personally i think normal is a individuals acceptance of the world Bad or good. 
Thats my best so far  
 Normal in the abstract cannot exist. 

A paradox. 

Normal contraction material could be defined geographically however. 
 You touch the point Franny, what is normal to me, might not be for someone else....And what we perceive as normal, has already a social construct also, behind. 
 So, this is a thing I've told my kids since they were small, there is no such thing as "normal" because my normal and your normal and the guy down the street's normal are all different. There can only be an average and I hope you strive to be anything but average.  
 Thats a good lesson kinds off topic but just makes me think of popular saying here: be normal thats already crazy enough 
 I also try to remember that I'm not raising children. I'm raising adults who just happen to be children right now.  
 Heterosexual homogeneous communities of 150 or fewer people eating unprocessed meat, dairy, fruits, and vegetables.

Every part of our modern world that deviates from that is artificial, and is only tolerated because of brainwashing. 
 I'd say that is natural, not necessarily normal. 
 Ha this is a great one!

Normal is living your grandest life, on the edge of any reality you can push yourself hardest, towards.

Then continuing that tradition with your children. Hoping they too embrace chaos and order in equal parts and can let the calamity of life wash over them as quickly as the profound moments of fleeting ecstasy! 

Life is a roller coaster! 

Normal is living as large as you possibly can without hurting yourself or others too much in the process.

Love these my fren 🤩😎💜 
 I love your responses and the glimpse in how you see the world and i can tell you try to pass it on to your kids beautiful to see 🫂💜 
 Thank you.  Age offers a gateway to experiences - good and bad; off spring needs to understand the silver lining is fraught with mayhem! 

“BM’s” happen when we search for them … they’re not a given. 

Rinse - Repeat!

Thanks for testing my ability to still sound and write coherently, in current debasement of English language 😅😂🙏💜 
 common usage: divisive relativism

scientific usage: a 'normal' range such as a 'normal germination period for a type of seed'

 Okay now thats funny 😂 
 Normal isn't a measurable thing.  It is what we expect.  We expect people to think, speak, and act in a particular way.  Abnormal is when a person acts differently than we expect or things work out differently than we expect.  Because normal isn't a definite thing or an absolute truth, it depends on the expectations of each person and what is considered normal depends on who is defining it.

Normal is boring and unenlightening.  I prefer abnormal. 
 Agree fully i am asking for people define what normal means either to them or the word 
No judgement just intresting debate 
 Seems like that is your truth and not mine tho 🤷‍♂️ 
 You are trying to argue me about my definition of truth and even tho i love irony i am not willing to argue.
Live and let live 
 For your consideration 🙏
