“It’s Actually Very Odd When You Think About It”: 50 Things That Are Considered Normal But Are Weird As Shared By Our Community
I believe we all can agree that people are strange creatures. We do loads of random stuff without really thinking about it. Our society is built in such a way that we tend to normalize things or expect someone to act according to a typical pattern. However, when you really think about it, some patterns appear to be pretty odd and bizarre.
So, I got curious about what behavior our pandas think is considered to be normal but is actually weird. I was surprised to receive so many insightful answers! Scroll down to read them and don't forget to share your opinion with us!

That the best paid jobs are likely to be non-essential for sustaining our societies, like cosmetic surgeons or stock market brokers. And that essential jobs are paid so little, like cleaners, teachers or social workers.
This ons needs to be higher. Remember a while back in Milan the bankers went on strike and there was a panic but nothing terrible happened? And then the garbage cleaners/collectors went on strike and the city was a filthy mess. Essential workers need better wages because they are the people that make the world a better place.
Liking, following, and worshipping influencers. They’re just people, and most are faking their looks and profiles, yet it’s normal to idolize them. No thanks.
Voting against universal healthcare, paid time off, and higher taxes on the ultrarich.
When someone is in a situation (think being hurt/attacked) where they need help and instead of helping, everyone takes out their phones to record video of it.
People have been idle bystanders for a long time before cellphones came with cameras.
Hunting animals as a leisurely activity. Not for food, but fun. Like fox hunting in the UK. Hunting humans for fun is illegal, murder and very very wrong. Surely people who hunt animals for sport have psychopathic tendencies and psychological issues?
The whole concept of Religion is actually very odd when you think about it.
I have no problem with faith. The problem lies in the man made rules that define the organized Religion. Made by men with ulterior motives, like power and/or wealth
Faith is just belief without evidence, which is actually kind of a huge problem.

"My god can beat up your god." " Oh yeah, my god goes to the gym everyday" "Well my god has a black belt in karate"
Load More Replies...It only seems normal because most people are indoctrinated from their infancy to believe such nonsense. It's normal if that is all you know. But come on, the idea that there were 2 people in some garden and a snake convinced a woman to eat a forbidden fruit and that results in the whole of humanity to be damned in some sort of way? Not to mention other ridiculous notions like a wordwide flood that killed everything except this one guy's family who happened to take samples of every species on a giant boat to repopulate the world? And somehow all the kangaroos ended up in Australia and nowhere else? Seriously, it's all complete nonsense.
Oh, and Genesis and Noah's ark stories mean that the world's population, including animals is completely based upon creating the current population based upon incest - and according to what we know about genetics, that is completely absurd and impossible because there is no diversity of DNA. If any of that actually happened, not a single species would last many generations due to genetic defects.
Load More Replies...Most religions have turned into cults, and their are cult disguised as religions(scientology) but people should be able to believe what they want. But they should not be forced to participate in 'donating' or paying anything, and should feel comfortable enough to be able to practice in their own homes.
True faith is a beautiful thing to behold, but most religious people don’t have it. They’re just there to get anything they can out of religion. Going to church to make business or social connections, or just so you can make yourself think you’re superior to someone else because you “just know” you’re going to Heaven and the rest of us are going to burn in Hell (Hint: We’re not. Heaven and Hell are right here on Earth, and we’re all already in the middle of it.). Joining, or forming, a cult to coerce believers into turning all their assets over to the “religion”—-meaning you. Happens in the older religions too. What’s the net worth of The Vatican? I’m not saying religions haven’t ever done anything good for anybody. There are very selfless people in each of them who have done wonderful things for people who really needed it. But then there’s the rest—-most—-of them, who would rather blame and judge than help, then cherry-pick their particular book to justify themselves.
There are people of exceptional faith that are good, bad and everything in between. There are people with no spiritual faith whatsoever that are good, bad and everything in between. It’s not about the faith or the religion, it’s the quality of a person’s character.
Load More Replies...Creation stories and faith based explanations for natural phenomena are completely sensible to me. But using religion to control how people live their lives? It's a no for me, thanks.
Now that we know thunder and lightning aren't angry gods, it's way beyond time to abandon our attachments to our religious teachings. Arguing over who is right has led to so much suffering.
Load More Replies...God is just Santa clause for adults. "He sees you when you're sleeping. He knows when you're awake he knows when you've been good or bad so be good for goodness sake." God is also very much about ego - I'm so important god watches over me. I'm better than you because you don't believe what I believe. Or I'm going to heaven but you're going to hell. Even missionary work is all about believing your religion is so 'right' you need to force it on others. So happy I'm an atheist.
It is very odd. But I will keep my (agnostic) mind open since I live on a rock, revolving around a ball of gas, hurtling thru a void. And there's another rock revolving around this rock that somehow controls my lady parts. So for me, who knows? But formal "religion" appears to have been bastardized into a control mechanism. I think there is something there, but humans harness it to their benefit.
Because the "far-left" has it all together? That's the thing. Most people are closer to the middle.
Load More Replies...Yes. I find the whole concept rather science fiction. I was always that kid at school asking why over and over when bible stories were being read to the class and they never sat well with my, never once with any "explanation" anywhere near satisfactory. If some kid started claiming to be conversing with god there's a huge change that they'd be medicated and under psychiatric care than being praised as the messiah
Crazy leader: we will tell the people a man in the sky impregnated a mortal. The resulting child was a magic man who could turn water into wine and rise from the dead. That way we can control them with the fear of not being sent to the sky man's cloud kingdom in the sky. Crazy leaders freind: it'll never work mate Crazy leader: oh we will see
Look at some of the other religions that you are not committed to and realise how much wierd stuff is in there. So exactly how is the universe structured? Something with a flat disk on top of elefants standing on a giant turtle swimming through the universe? What kinds of mushrooms did you eat, before getting that idea? You may have grown so acustomed to certain things in your religion and have been exposed to them to such an extend that they seem familiar, and therefore look normal; but for a moment try to step outside of it and do a similar evaluation to those things from the other religions. What did you say the symbol of your religion was? A medieval torture device? sound just like the thing you'd wear around your neck...and what did you do last sunday in church? Participated in a simulated canabalistic ritual where you pretended to eat the body and drink the blood of your god, who also happened to be his own farther? Maybe it is time to evaluate if this is really the smartest way
Very little emphasis is placed on repentance. Repentance is NOT saying, "oh, sorry" and repeating the same wrong act. Repentance includes trying to help t
(I hit the wrong button again) trying to help the people you've hurt by your actions. It means coming to terms with both what you did and why. It includes making changes to ensure that you do not repeat the act. Repentance includes tears, struggle, fear, humiliation, honesty, grit, and desire to change. It's great to say hallelujah. It's a first step. It's not the last. Very few people are willing to put their faith to working on themselves. True repentance is a very long journey, and very much worth it, whether you do it in the name of God or not.
Load More Replies...I totally agree !!! All of the things I was taught in Catholic school and jammed down my throat were man made laws. At 4th grade the doubt began and by the time I graduated I realized they were wrong. As a disabled Vet and senior I still study and research two topics to become more wise than intellectual, History and Theology so as to stay focused.
“One must state it plainly. Religion comes from the period of human prehistory where nobody—not even the mighty Democritus who concluded that all matter was made from atoms—had the smallest idea what was going on. It comes from the bawling and fearful infancy of our species, and is a babyish attempt to meet our inescapable demand for knowledge (as well as for comfort, reassurance and other infantile needs). Today the least educated of my children knows much more about the natural order than any of the founders of religion, and one would like to think—though the connection is not a fully demonstrable one—that this is why they seem so uninterested in sending fellow humans to hell.” ― Christopher Hitchens,
I believe deeply in a higher power ... but really despise the way organized religion has been weaponized over the centuries to benefit "The Church" at the expense of its parishioners.
I'll take science over religion any day. Science has questions that may never be answered, Religion has answers that may never be questioned. It's about controlling the masses...
Not at all - humans are hard-wired to look for causes. When we don't understand what causes a phenomenon, we invent a story to fill that gap. People also have the tendency to see intelligence behind many things. I mean, look at how many people believe that their dog is Einstein? They are inventing human-type intelligence behind the dog's actions. For much larger phenomena, like storms or sunlight, they invent a cosmic intelligence, or intelligences.
As a Muslim I can guarantee that in the koran is clearly stated that anyone who believe in God and do good deed will goes to heaven. But most of muslim will insist that only their group will goes there. Even they believe that other muslim that not on their group will goes to the hell..
It brought hope to a very dark and depressed time. Now we lost our faith and in my case i belive in nothing, that don't make me any happier
I’m not a believer, but I can certainly understand the relief and comfort one might gain in surrendering to a higher power. Hope you’re doing better.
Load More Replies...Organized Religion is the root of all evil. It actively encourages humanity to ignore evidence, and reality under the delusion that the made up from the never was would never, ever let anything really bad happen to their favorite ant farm so just "try" to be a good person and do whatever you feel is right. Well the consequences of that blueprint are currently collapsing all around us while countless people continue to "believe" things are just gonna work out....for reasons. It's not odd, it's socially acceptable insanity, and it just makes me so freaking exhausted.
Not really - religion was the first form of psychological help available for centuries before the 19th century, and many people still turn to their parish priest/pastor/monk for advice on personal and family issues before searching for a psychotherapist.
It doesn't matter what religion you in,you should respect others beliefs
Being atheist I have no respect for others beliefs on imaginary friends
Load More Replies...I think it's great the way religion stimulates debate but in the end, none of it matters. Whatever happens when we die will happen, regardless of what you choose to believe. Money, power, athleticism, looks, they all go in the end and you're left alone with the big question; Have I got time for just one more dog?
We bring kids to therapy for having an invisible friend. That's all I need to say.

Not really. Religion was invented to control the masses and boy did it work.
I tell you an invisible man is putting ideas into my head and I talk to him all the time, if you DONT talk to him youre going to be burned forever... Oh and his invisible son too.... You giving me a Bible or a psych ward visit?
Humans have had a belief in God/gods/spirits since the dawn of man. Archeological evidence shows that Neanderthals buried their dead 130,000 years ago with items, flowers, even what's believed to be artwork. The grave of a child in Africa was recently discovered, dating back 80.000 years which had items with it. This shows a belief that someone/some god was paying attention in their eyes.
Religion is something uniquely human and shared by all cultures. Odd is definitely not a word I'd use.
Belief that there wasn't a creator and things just happened over time is weird to me
Except there is physical evidence of evolution, it’s not just “belief”.
Load More Replies...History. Fundamentalists in every religion, faith, ideology, organistion or belief system etc. have been and still are the most dangerous human beings.. If I were to choose one for guidance on how to live my life it would be Taoism. (please let me know if Taoists have ever started any wars, acts of greed, persecution or organised acts of violence or terrorism...)
The concept of going to a doctor is odd too. You don't know him, you don't know how good he is, you don't know if he will make the correct diagnosis but you still go.
Because the doctor’s decisions and diagnoses are evidence based.
Load More Replies...Yeah like if you look at mormonism/Christian’s from a different perspective: theres a guy in the sky(but not acctually, he’s in between the sky and space? Or on that weird planet) who was tortured and killed for our sins. Also like being baptized, yeah we’re gonna dunk you in the water real quick then everyone’s gonna celebrate and now you can never sin again.
Religion, at this time is Catholic. Catholicism, wrote our history. The US constitution states separation of church and state....nothing is that. Leaders lean toward the bible. Our world is based on Christ, our calendar is baced on Christ. Muslims and Jews disagree, and disprove this "fact". Romans are Nazis, the Vatican, is a farce, and the world, would do better if we all accepted one another. Our technological advancements will be our down fall. Not politics or religion. Technology, that's our end.
Your world might be based on Christ, you don’t speak for the entire population.
Load More Replies...Forcing relationships on kids at a young age. I’ve seen shirts made for infants that say “ladies man” and similar stuff on them, and I think it’s disgusting.
Mine had a shirt with 'eat sleep s**t repeat' and that was far more accurate as 'ladies man'.
Being offended by literally anything and everything. Lighten up people!
Sexualizing literally everything that does not need to be sexualized. Eg, tacos and hotdogs. Let me enjoy my food without losing my appetite due to some unnecessary joke.
I hate that too. It's really bad in the cultures where friendships between genders are regarded with doubt.
Asking when you’re gonna have a kid! Why is that normal and ok? I’m gonna monumentally change my life because it’s socially acceptable, nay, demanded that you procreate on an already overpopulated planet!!!
And when you state you don’t want any, you’re told that you’ll change your mind!!! Or if you’re over 30 as a woman, your body clock is ticking?!?!?
Not only from family, but strangers!!!
I tell people I simply can’t have them (half true) or that I would eat them if I did… second one is great for family dinners… lol x
It's fine if people ask you if you have kids. It's not fine when people start questioning why you don't have kids.
It should not be normal to pierce a baby's ears. I know that earrings can look really cute, but that is not good enough a reason to penetrate healthy skin of someone to young to agree to it.
If a child actively asks to get their ears pierced, it is if course totally ok. But no baby ever asked for this. They don't talk. They're babies.
Forcing kids: "go hug/kiss your grandma/grandpa/aunt" body autonomy level zero. That's what kids are taught from a young age, they have no right to choose who can touch/kiss them, or forced to give away their affection against their own will. :(((((((((((((( NOT NORMAL at all
I grew up that way and always thought I had no choice. Far forward to age 13 where I was a junior bride's maid and at the end of the after-party, a man, about 80 years old, asked me for a kiss as we were leaving. The dirty b*stard stuck his tongue down my throat and made an mmm sound. Now, a 51, ANY time a man kisses me and makes that sound, I want to vomit.
Idolising billionaires. Like when people think people like Elon Musk have a willingness to save the planet.
(US) abundant luxury but scarce necessities: plenty of choices for entertainment, gaming, clothing, travel, etc. beyond your grandparents’ imagination. But… housing at < 1/4 your annual income and cars < 1/2 of it, like the formulas your grandparents lived by? Affordable education and healthcare? All de-normalized. Having nothing in savings and no expectation of being free from debt has been made normal.
Trying to talk people who decline a drink into having 'just one'. Stop it! You don't know people's situation. Stop with the bullying/peer pressure BS. 'No thank you' means no! Not keep trying until I submit. Stop pushing people off the wagon just to save face.
Totally this. Had to go to a dinner party thing recently hosted by a couple I’d never met. They asked my partner what alcohol they should buy for us, and he told them I don’t drink alcohol so not to worry. Their reply? “She will be doing tomorrow”. They have no idea why I don’t drink, and I think it was a real out of order answer. Of course they then tried to get me to drink all evening.
Cancel Culture! Even when joking about this, it's an incredibly childish thing to do and normalize, especially when people jump on the bandwagon and attack anyone, especially celebrities for messing up or doing something that even slightly rubs people the wrong way. Everybody makes mistakes, don't harass them for it!
It works both ways. Conservatives are just as guilty as liberals, if not more so.
Taking pictures of strangers without permission, and worse, go ahead and post them on the internet.
Shaming women for not breastfeeding. People should just mind their own business!
And shaming women for breastfeeding publicly. Like: As a mother you can't do it right, since you are judged anyway.
Celebrity culture
Expecting women to cover up or leave the room to breastfeed a baby. If the woman is more comfortable that way then fine, but treating feeding a baby as something dirty is really strange and unhelpful. People who want women to cover up to nurse a baby should try eating a meal with a blanket over their head!
Expecting children to socialise with everyone and share everything. I was a very shy child so when my mum invited her mom friends over they’d all send their kids to my room to play with my stuff and it was like a form of torture. We should teach children about reasonable boundaries and respect - We don’t expect the same behaviour from adults so I don’t see why it’s acceptable to do to our kids
Actually, we do expect the same behaviour from adults. In a work environment, it's called networking and everyone seems to hate it but it's necessary for doing business. Also, how else would you meet new people at a party?
Sharing your kid's photos on social media. Family albums are okay, when they are printed, or storing the pics just on your PC. It really stays on the net like "forever", or at least, as long as the internet exists.
How we encourage and love models and actresses who wear short clothes, but if a girl does it, she is attacked with the words hoe, dirty and shameless
How 40 seems to be the cut off point for desirability in workers. Being over 40 is like a death march in life. Experience means nothing. Over 50 and people might as well just retire because people act like you are 100 years old.
So true! When I was in my 40s, I couldn't get a job to save my life. However, we recently moved to Washington, and I got 3 job offers after 2 months of job hunting. In the state government application system they ask if you are over 40, and it weighs your application in your favor. I presume it is in response to the discrimination you described. I had two public and one private job offers, so I guess the culture here is different? I've lived in other states where my age was definitely used against me, so Washington has been a tremendous relief!
People swearing and screaming at retail workers and they’re just supposed to take it?!
Reality tv shows that are clearly scripted and rehearsed.
Before the ad break you’re shown a clip of what’s to happen , then we see an interview shot telling us what is going to happen , then we see it happen then another interview shot explaining what just happened
The novelty of reality TV wore off for me about halfway through the first episode of Survivor. Can’t stand the genre, don’t watch it. It needs to go away.
Colour coding babies clothes so that people know which genitals they have.
When I had my twins, I wanted to be surprised by their genders so I asked for yellow and green outfits and color schemes for the bedding and such. When they both turned out to be boys i didn't automatically change everything to blue either ☺️
As an American, all the reasons we have to ‘party’. I’m not necessarily complaining because I like to get together with friends and have a good time but I don’t remember my parents’ generation having this many ‘celebrations’ to go to. For only ONE young couple we know, we have attended the engagement party, bachelor/bachelorette party, the bridal shower, the wedding, 3 housewarmings, and soon to be 4 baby showers. They have been married for 6 years. I believe next year will mark their eldest child’s kindergarten graduation.
People who talk to me on the train. Dude, I’m wearing headphones and have a book in my hand, take the hint!
Is it a good book? What kind of music goes with the book you are reading? I have questions
The fact that so many jobs exist where you work full time and do not get paid enough to support yourself independently. And you are then told you have to go tens of thousands of dollars into debt to get a job with a living wage.
The greeting, "Hi, how are you?" Or "How ya doing?" And then everyone just says "Fine." In the first place, it seems like noone really wants to know how you actually are. And in the second place, noone says how they actually are. I mean, most of us are not all that fine a lot of the time.
I greeted a server with "how are you" the other day. She responded with a shrug and a "meh." I said, "You know what? I appreciate your honesty. It's 2021; none of us is "fine." She laughed. Be less afraid to disrupt the status quo. Be human instead.
Not acknowledging men’s mental health issues except to put down women’s. Like, they’re both huge problems that deserve to be individually seen and taken care of, but neither is a weapon to use against the other, or anything.
Youtube channels of toddlers and young kids. I believe parents do it for themselves and their ego, I hate that content is mainly about opening new toys and products.
Excessive consumption of alcohol. Getting drunk/plastered/etc never ends well.
I agree. I always monitor how much I drink because I don't want to be in a state where I can't look after myself. It's rude to expect others to get you home and make sure you're safe and I think it's shameful to get yourself into those situations when going out with friends.
Being expected to have a gf/bf/ef. Like, seriously, we get it, you want me to be in a relationship. This is especially true in schools with other students.
What pisses me off the most about this is people telling me I just haven't met THE ONE yet. It doesn't cross their mind that maybe I just don't want to be in a relationship.
Showing (and shoving) pictures of babies to strangers. Ummm no
Giving merit to the opinions of actors or famous people based solely on their fame or monetary status. Treating these individuals as if they are gods or goddesses rather than talented ACTORS making a s**t ton of money to entertain us🤷♀️
Especially when most really have no clue what they’re saying. Goes for a lot of people, actually.
Shaking hands. Now you have touched everything I've touched recently, and vice versa.
Staring at a medium-sized screen on a desk all day then relaxing at home by staring at a bigger screen on the wall while also glancing at a tiny screen in your hand.
"How did we do?" I'm so tired of being asked to 'rate our performance' Like a bunch of two year olds who want a trophy 'cause they just did a poo poo.
Working more than 40 hours a week, even working overnight. Seriously, if you are going to dedicate all your waking hours to work, is that success?
Is this success? Not in my book but you'd get a different answer from my boss who thinks you're lazy if you work less than 12 hours a day.
Taking sport seriously. I mean, it is fun to watch and fun to do whatever sport you like. But it is and should be just that: a fun way to exercise and meet others. The world is not dependent on wether your team/favourite sports person win or not.
You mean taking supportership too seriously. Sports can be taken seriously if they're your actual job.
When female celebrities can touch/kiss/smack/whatever a male colleague and it's not considered harassment
It's like this IRL as well. I have seen women slap men in pubs or other public places during an argument and storm out and nobody would bat an eyelid. Some of them would say "He probably deserved it". But if a man did this all hell would break loose and the police would be called.
Stopping what you're doing to answer the phone.
Would you immediately stop what your doing to talk if someone was nearby shouting ring ring ring ring, I'm stopping in 10 seconds if you dont talk to me?
No, you'd ignore them until they leave.
The kiss hello greeting, why do people do this?
Pretty much everything humans do is weird. We are weird animals. 🤷♀️
Why are almost all the comments from 9 months ago? Is this an old subject, dredged up to today?

Voting people down on BP for voicing an opinion contrary to that of the majority.
When someone says 'bless you' after you sneeze like you're exorcising some demon
Well, here we say "health", of which "bless you" would have a similar meaning, namely to express the hope for the other person to become or stay healthy (since people with colds usually sneeze more often). Which is a good wish, I think?

Incidentally, they have two purposes and trying to recondition humans, who have been made to view breasts as sexual, is a lost cause. How about we accept both scenarios as being truths and we teach moms how to breastfeed discretely rather than thinking just because they are nursing it is acceptable to have both breasts hanging out for the world to see then complain people are sexualizIng them. Of course they are. We are attracted to boobs, butts and hood because they are tied to fertility and reproduction. It is natural to view them sexually. If we didn't, no one would be drawn to reproduce. The problem is how the women are using them. If you are using them to nurse, then nurse. Don't behave as though you are using them to draw the attention of males while pretending to simply nurse just so you have a reason to complain. It's ignorant and ridiculous.
Could we open up a discussion about bathing apparel? I mean, yeah we are all beautiful, I know its hot and you wanna get all that lovely tan, but, no, I do not really wanna see EVERYONE around me in underwear nor do I want to be seen in it by others than my family. Because that's what it is in the end, but this fact is being blissfully ignored at the beach. If I would walk around town in my underwear this would be considered harassment.
