It's so obnoxiously narcissistic. "Oh, I am so above the unwashed normal people. I am not stupid, like a commoner. I'm the special superior chosen one. The main character. Me me me!"

No you aren't, nerd. You're an egotistical asshole.

    While NPC is definitely a bit yikes. Normie might just refer to average every day people (you know people who just want to grill or exist somewhere between liberal/centrist/conservatism). Normies are functioning members of society who might get their news from msnbc or foxnews but are very often much happier and healthier than the person that uses the word normie. If you unironically use the word normie you are to be pitied because its very likely that your existence is a sad one.

        The phrase "Well adjusted to injustice" comes to mind.

        Also, why don't we have any Cornel West emotes?

      You can substitute "muggle" and it's pretty much the same word. People who aren't aware of what's going on and don't care.
