Hypernormal

An adjective describing something so very incredibly mundane it gets so hard to imagine. It's so much more ordinary than everything else in its normality. A paradox, honestly. If something is so normal it makes it stand out, then doesn't that make it unique in a way? The opposite is hyponormal, but surely they mean the same thing...
Person 1: Hey, she tries to fit in so much that she's hypernormal.
Person A: You're making up words by putting 'hyper' in front of them. Besides, maybe she's so much more normal that she's not like other girls ;)
