In my experience these are the lucky ones i have known too, get to know them and everything is not rosy even if it appears to be on the surface.
There are no normies IMO, just people and they are either happy with their lives/themselves to varying degrees or not again to varying degrees...i have met a lot of, what we would consider, happy (both spiritually and materialistically and a mixture of the two) people in my lifetime and none of them go out and get wasted, why would they? These are people that have no need for any form of escape...their lives are pretty whole and satisying...
