When you want to express your excitement or obsession over a topic, but you say you don’t really care. You’re showing how hyped you are but in a very calm manner. You’re definitely not insane.

Normaling is the act you perform when you are in an inescapable environment with many other people, and there is absolutely nothing to occupy yourself with. A given person's social skill level, social status, and personality can be immediately determined by the proficiency and style of their normaling.
The goal of normaling is to do nothing in the most socially acceptable, "normal" manner. Very generally, normaling consists of staring at inanimate objects and avoiding eye contact with others; however, this can vary widely between individuals with different normaling proficiencies and is very dependent on the situation at hand.
Here are two examples of appropriate normaling practices:
Ex 1: You're on a plane filled with people. Your phone is dead and you don't want to pay for movies/tv. In this situation, normaling etiquette calls for you to feign sleeping. Close your eyes and lean your head back. Optionally, mix in an occasional snore.
Ex 2: You're in a British Literature class, which, by nature, is boring. The professor grades attendance, so you can't leave. Your professor is also a stickler on having phones out (it's a small class, so he can spot you if you take out your phone). In this case, the common normaling practice is to lean back in your chair, and alternate between staring at the ceiling and walls. Then (and this is crucial), take out your water bottle, and periodically take 0.5-1.5 minute long sips from it every 5-7 minutes.

I don't know about Wes, dude. His normaling on the bus today was off. He kept staring at people, and it was making everyone uncomfortable. He gives off ex-band kid vibes.
Mark seems chill af. His normaling during bio the other day was on point. We should ask him to hang out.

The processes by which society establishes new norms, expectations, and standards, and in some cases existing norms and standards are replaced, in regards to what is and is not acceptable in religious settings. These processes happen in various settings including schools, colleges, businesses, churches, news channels, state governments, federal governments, and homes. These processes can greatly impact how people think, act, and behave in various religious situations.
Yuliana: I wish more religions would be more supportive of giving women equal rights and protections.
Winston: Regrettably that may take a while to occur, the amount of time in which religious normalization occurs in many religions is relatively slow. It could take many years for those types of changes to happen, but the process might be accelerated if more national governments gave women equal rights to men, which would help pressure them into doing it.
Yuliana: I just wish it would happen faster.
Winston: We can always hope that some day more religions will be more supportive of women’s right.
Yuliana: I agree. Hopefully some day more of them will.
