The perpetual cry of "normalize this, normalize that" gets a much-needed reality check here. In physics, normalization is a mathematical technique to make equations well-behaved. In society, it's what people demand when they want their questionable life choices validated. Perhaps if these normalization enthusiasts spent more time with divergent integrals, they'd understand that not everything needs to be forced into standard form. Some behaviors should remain properly undefined.
