Ever wonder how normal you are?

Asked by ETpro (34605points) November 4th, 2010

Here’s a quick 12-question survey that will show you how most people answer questions you might not want to ask in public or share your answers to. It’s completely anonymous, so feel free to find out if you are about average or truly one of a kind. Feel free to share details of how “normal” you are if you wish, or just enjoy finding out for yourself how you compare to the many others who have completed the survey.

I surprised myself in how typical I am. I’ll share my results after enough of my fellow jellies go first. :-)

I don’t have to wonder – in some ways, not at all…in others pretty damn normal. I’ll come back for the survey though. I do pick my nose, I don’t have a car, I only use plastic, I rarely clean my bathroom, I have googled myself, I am happy with how I look (mostly), I have FB stalked people, I have been in love (why would that be a controversial question?!), I have given out fake information, I do talk to myself, put my right arm in first, and sometimes.

Glanced at the survey but did not take it.

Based on the questions I’d say I am pretty damn ‘normal’, minus stalkng anyone or excessive nose picking. lol

I do know though that I am quite mentally and emotionally ‘normal’, healthy.

Not prone to drama, don’t take my bad moods out on others, don’t have many bad moods period.

Show up with emotional consistency and am free of neurosis.

The rest, quirks, habits and other such things are just that, quirks and habits shared by most.

Hell no. I don’t need no steenking survey to know that I’m abnormal as hell where it counts, and proud of it, and determined to stay that way.

But you’d never know it to see me on the street. I’m invisible, which I find is completely normal.

I could easily design a test that would show everyone to be abnormal.

Upon answering each question, which took well over 10 minutes (it was insanely slow), I noticed that about half of my answers were abnormal while the other half were normal.

So, I guess I’m right in between!

I am not normal but I think most of you already know this!! I guess I like a cleaner car than most and am happy with me just the way I am! I am such a rebel!

ETpro's avatar

I was surprised I scored as average as I did. I was in the mainstream except in how often I wash my car (back when I had one), which arm I put into a shirt sleeve first and my level of honesty about giving out correct address information.

Hmmm…well I do sign up my pets for political propaganda, sooo, this might be the defining factor that would push me over the edge of the bell shaped curve.

I love to get mail addressed to my goose, ” Marwyn, we need your vote!” lol

Dare I admit I think it’s about time to try an entirely new species in office?

Marwyn’s campaign slogan would be ’ let them eat bread.’ hahaha

sad that most people aren’t generally happy with the way they look,

CMaz's avatar

Like now? Do I have to answer this question now?

And, I am not normal. Except to myself. ;-)

@wundayatta you don’t have to; Fluther has already been invented for the purpose.

I put the “norm” in “normal.”

CMaz's avatar

If you call “masochistic sinners writhe amid the torments of Hell” normal. ;-)

erichw1504's avatar

I put the “ab” in “abnormal”. Yes, I only had one ab… :(

There is no such thing as normal.

Especially when talking about bowel movements.

Coloma's avatar

Thanks for sharing Chaz. lol

I just found 3 M&M peanuts under a pillow on the couch in my TV room…I ate them. They were only 4 days old. hahaha

ETpro's avatar

@Coloma Ha! Rest assured Marwyn’s got my support. Does he need a campaign manager?

@mamma Another way of looking at it is that it’s noce so many are honest with themselves. :-)

@Foolaholic Great toon. Thanks.

I got to question two and was fed up waiting for this PC to load shit, so I gave up. That’s how much I care. XD

ETpro's avatar

@Symbeline That sounds pretty normal. The thing zipped right along for me, but I have a 40 Meg connectin.

mammal's avatar

@ETpro personally i find that statistic disturbing, most people aren’t badly disfigured, or unusually disproportionate. to me it betrays a too great an emphasis on appearance.

ETpro's avatar

@mammal I take it that people are holding up a high standard of beauty. The question seemed more about being completely happy with your current appearance or feeling you had room for improvement, not whether you looked sort of OK or like Quasimodo. I think I look decent, but my beard and hair could use a trim, I have a few scars here and there—lots of them, actually—and bags under my eyes. My teeth aren’t straight, giving me a snaggle-toothed smile. There’s room for improvement.
