But it says king of the world on my t-shirt.

I've heard many people say, "Normal is overrated." I loathe when that phrase falls out of peoples faces. Don't even get me started on t-shirts with slogans like 'Normal people worry me.' Do they? Do they really? What is it about these so called 'normal' people that makes you worry so. Could it be that maybe you think that, is some way, you may fit into this horrendous category and therefore need to buy a t-shirt in order to proudly proclaim, to yourself, and everyone in the mall that day, that you're the physical manifestation of the road less traveled. Because as we all know, t-shirts are truth indelibly printed on cloth. Clear evidence of this are those classy T's proclaiming things like 'Tell your Mom I said thanks!.' As much as you don't want to believe it, this man had sex with your Mother, it says so on his t-shirt.
Returning to my original thesis; stating the phrase 'normal is overrated' will bring bloody, unrivaled, apocalyptic fury to this sphere with no mercy. Its turned into one of those horrifying things people say when they want to label stupidity, or ignorant bliss under the convenient umbrella of 'weird'. Being normal is no longer overrated because every damn person says that it is, and therefore, it becomes a normal thing to say, which causes a dichotomy and makes the two switch places and inevitably, creates a rift in the space time continuum, people start to walk on their hands, fish walk out of the ocean on their fins juggling pieces of coral and singing 'head like a hole' in reverse, hermit crabs become extremely friendly and grow to the size of dogs and eventually, replace them. People start to speak only in palindromes and anagrams and it takes weeks to have a simple conversation, George W Bush wins the Nobel Prize, Texas becomes a haven for gay liberals, Medical Doctor falls to the third most respected profession behind Sanitation worker and Coffee Barista and it is all...your...fault.
