Feel free to define “average” how you see fit. This isn’t about debating what is average person. Comparisons to the averages in your age / friend group are fine too.
I have 3 kids more than average, plus a handful of step kids. 6 inches taller than average woman in my country. Probably more politically progressive, but that’s hard to judge here, with all the gerrymandering and not everyone voting. Apparently also much more tolerant of spicy food than the average, at least according to people who claim to be average.
Much more intelligent.
I’m not carrying a gun made of bacon and watching young Sheldon
I’m autistic.
I got 600$ in the bank motherfucker
I’m a huge nerd wearing a tinfoil hat:
- owns many computers, all run Linux
- GrapheneOS
- not on social media (other than Lemmy) do not use WhatsApp
- NAS in the leaving room
- 3D printer in the leaving room I pass for normal in social settings until some ask for my WhatsApp or Instagram or what have you.
I care about privacy.
For the life of me, I cannot get people i know to care even a little bit about their privacy when giving it away let’s them scroll TikTok endlessly.
It’s nuts to me. Anyone who doesn’t care about privacy, I want to ask them in person when they last masturbated.
What? What’s the difference? You don’t care if Facebook knows.
I never try. Most people don’t care about privacy until something happens to them.
USA here.

Indifferent to sports. Football, baseball, and basketball are at best insipid. Hockey is at least somewhat interesting, but that’s only because my youngest plays. Even then, I do not follow it.

Don’t care about guns. Yes, I can shoot. It pissed my right-wingnut, Kyle Shittenhouse worshiping brother off to no end, when I could out shoot him, with his own guns. Did I mention he has 6 years in the Army and practiced with his weapons at least once a week? It took me maybe 10 shots of practice to start being more accurate. My vision is worse than his too. Still have no interest in owning one. I keep a Claymore next to my bed for social occasions at home.

When I was growing up, one of the first questions someone would ask a kid was what team they supported, and not even if they liked football in the first place. So I guess I was in a big minority there.
I haven’t posted anything to my personal social media accounts in half a decade.
Similarly, with the popularity of short form video booming, I basically don’t consume any of it and instead find myself watching 1h+ video essays about some old piece of equipment from 40 years ago.
I’m a lot more left-wing than most people I talk to.
I’m tall enough to bang my head on some door frames.
What kind of old equipment videos do you watch? I found that I like old computers after watching Dave Plummer’s pdp11 video’s
If you’ve not come across them here are some of my favourite creators in that category, in no particular order: LGR, 8-bit guy, cathode ray dude, techmoan, technology connections, nostalgia nerd
I’m fat, use Linux and am not homophobic… Yeah, that’s pretty much it
What country is full of skinny homophobes?
ls /Europe/TheBalkans
I’m better.
That’s an average thinking pattern. People like Einstein tho said he was no different than average other than the effort he put into his work.
That’s true for other people, but I’m built different.
There’s no such thing as “big bones”
That’s not true; I’ve got them. My BMI is under 20, but I wear size 8-10 pants. My hip bones are literally bigger than average.
There is one. Ask your mom.
I travel.
Not even gap year. Full on quitting multiple jobs and moving to another country and finding a job travelling.
People talk about it but most people are too scared and find excuses. Other people have legitimate reasons though.
- I don’t wear plaid or denim
- I’m not a lumberjack
- I’m not wearing a toque (right now)
- I don’t have a (full) beard
- I don’t play hockey (anymore)
I should probably change my username and avatar.
I’m Texan by birth. I don’t like guns, meat, or driving. I think Mesoamerican history is way more interesting than the Civil War.
