Was Always Going To Be Doctor Strange

(I am in my mid-20s, and have been an anime, manga, gaming, and superhero fan since I was a kid. My parents go to a funeral for the father of a college friend of theirs, while I have to stay home and work. My dad speaks to me when he and Mom come home.)

Dad: “You’re normal.”

Me: “Huh?”

Dad: “You’re actually normal.”

Me: “What do you mean?”

Dad: “After [Friend’s Father]’s funeral I was listening to [Friend’s nieces and nephews around my age] talk about [Recent Superhero movies] and video games. That’s normal for you guys. You’re actually normal.” *he continues to repeat this in a surprised tone as he starts to walk away*

Me: *rather stunned in response to his revelation* “But I like being weird.”

(I’m still not sure whether to be complimented or offended at his surprise that I am rather normal for my age group. Plus, I like being weird. It’s fun!)
