4chan stuck out to me, especially since they coined the term "normie"

- hot_gril 4y agoThe only reason I don't think it's 4chan is it doesn't mention Gentoo.

- Slighted 4y ago4channers use Normalfag. "Normie" is the sanitized version for Redditors and Youtubers that are too afraid to use the -fag suffix. Same with the "Glowie" meme.
- SketchySeaBeast 4y agoIn that case, I think this conversation may be entirely wrong as "normie" is in no way a new term, and it's not fear keeping people from using the suffix/slur so I don't think people would go looking for a safe alternative.
