What does "I'm Not Your Average Human, I'm Very Different Then Others" mean?

Then Others what? 🤔

Sounds suspiciously like something an average human would say, in an attempt to misguide others into thinking said human is not average.

That they've made the common error of writing "then" when they mean "than".

@ServantOfTheGoddess Believe me, nobody in my area says "different than". I've lived in the same part of the city for 37 years and I still haven't heard it used.

@Crazychick it's a big world 🌎 though 😊. Some people somewhere speak differently than you 😜

@ServantOfTheGoddess So who does say that?

To me it means an almost always wrong idea that there are no others like me.

Given a world population of over 335,621,000,000(no, that's wrong. 8.005 billion.) and change, that's a sweeping statement. It speaks of a desire to be special, or despair at finding kindred souls, but it's 99.99% likely to be wrong.

@Mamapolo2016 i agree in general, but thought the world population in 2023 was 8.1 billion. In any case, the idea that YOU (whoever thinks they are so different from the rest of us) are unique or special or different (except in the eyes of God or your mother) is absurd. What makes you think you're so special?

@SW-User You're right about the number, but as you say, even so...

I want to be different.

Just like everyone else. 🙄

Crazychick · 36-40, F

@Fungirlvape I am not a bully, I'm as anti-bullying as can be. Blocked for slander.

@ArishMell I didn't look at that comment, I immediately saw "prespositions" in the next comment. Was that deliberate or a genuine typo?

I can never understand why people would confuse "there" and "their" because they are obviously unrelated. As for "they're", it's not even pronounced the same as the others, PLUS it has a verb in it and the others don't. How is it possible to mix them up?
