.. I ponder if anyone actually wakes up in the morning and think of themselves as a deviant freak of nature. >.>

But I love coke! It's my favourite non-alcoholic drink. I don't like beer, I prefer cider.

I don't want to be normal, it sounds boring.

Hey, normalcy is overrated. (Also, I'm not a big fan of beer. I'm more of a soda person...)

I prefer Schweppes lemonade to Coke, but it doesn't mix as well with Jack Daniels. I haven't found any good beers yet- I mostly stick to cider. Are there any beers the Escapist recommends? That I can get in the UK?

Similarly, my favourite drink is Coke.

Though I think there are perhaps five things I could sound normal about.

No one is normal. Not at school/work, not on earth, not anywhere.

Yes.
If you like tequila, try tequila-flavoured beer - Amigos or Desperados can be found in any good cornershop. (In fact, try it even if you don't like it)
I really like Tribute ale, a Cornish beer that I've seen served on tap in many pubs outside of Cornwall.
Your location in the UK will affect what beers are easily available to you though, due to the microbrewery miracle.
If you like light beers, go for a Budweiser if you've never had one.
If you've not had a Guiness, it's worth giving that a go too.

I was once told that everyone is normal until the moment you get to know something about them.

so I think you'll find that in any group of people, be it a forum or a real-life group of strangers, no one will be considered "normal" at the end of the conversation...

Yes, people on here are weird. Well bloody done.

"Normal" doesn't really exist, but yes we wouldn't be an accurate representation for the general public.

There are no normal people, just people pretending to be similar. If everyone talked freely about themselves we'd live in a real life 4chan.

There would be far to much seen to unsee, our brains would melt.

The alternative crowd is a cool crowd to be with. You never know what you'll pick up.

I'm proud to not be normal! I just don't get all pretentious about it.

Woodchuck Amber. Unless they have Spring on the market (it is sadly only available during the Spring). Or, if I can find it, Crispin's Honey Crisp is fantastic.

"Normal" is just a social construct some humans use to gain a sense of grounding and stability. It's used as a qualifier far too much, I want to slap people in the face everytime they say "you're not normal!" as if it's something to be ashamed of.

Also, this.
