So Sayeth You
A verbal disagreement, typically delivered as a call-and-response seen in many church sermons, whose meaning and intensity varies upon the speaker--at its most polite, it can be construed as "I respectfully disagree" or "That's what you think"; at its most intense, it means, "Bullshit!" or "You fucking liar!"

Normie
Someone who deliberately places themselves outside the wave of what's popular in technology, entertainment, video games, et al (i.e. they not only "don't get it", they "choose not to get it"). Used frequently by gamers, and fans of anime - especially those who frequently participate in cosplaying - to refer to non-fans.

2) About halfway through the first song she tried on my copy of Guitar Hero, my normie sister threw down the guitar, called it stupid, and walked out of the room.
