Even so, once there's a word there's a definition. Once there's a definition, there's a framework. Once there's a framework, there are norms and rules. Totally misses the point.

Although I'm sure that that word was invented by some jag off who thought it'd be cool to get famous making up a nonsense word, and that most people who leave their house everyday wearing a t and jeans have never heard of a word for it. Shame on reporters for writing stories about such nonsense.

Agreed that most people who "wear normcore" probably don't intend to be "wearing normcore."

It is a high-falutin' word to express a very deliberately non-high-falutin' concept.
