A manifesto of weird
May. 29th, 2005 02:49 pmAlright, imagine "normal" as a point in theoretical space. Around this "normal" point is a 3 dimensional cloud of weird, with weirdness branching out in different directions from the center point. A LARPer may be off normal in a certain direction(let's say 3,4,2 in coordinates which makes for a distance from normal of ~5). An Amish person may be off normal in a different direction(let's say -3,-4.-2 which makes for a distance from normal of ~5). Thus, in this model is it possible to see that weird is not the same as weird. The Amish and the LARPer are each about 5 away from normal but are about 10 away from each other, even though the are both weird. Like INWO fanatics, weird can oppose weird.
