I found these instructions on line:
Delete Specific Anomaly
You can delete individual anomalies using one of two methods:
1. Delete Directly
Step 1: Click on Archived from the navigation bar in the Anomalies section to view all archived anomalies.
Step 2: Locate the anomaly that you want to delete and click on the Delete icon located on the right side of the anomaly.
Step 3: A confirmation modal window will appear, click on the Delete button to permanently remove the anomaly from the system.
2. Delete via Action Menu
Step 1: Click on the archived anomaly from the list of archived anomalies that you want to delete.
Step 2: You will be directed to the anomaly details page. Click on the Settings icon located at the top right corner of the page and select “Delete” from the dropdown menu.
Step 3: A confirmation modal window will appear, click on the Delete button to permanently remove the anomaly from the system.
After clicking on the Delete button, your anomaly is successfully deleted and a confirmation message appears on the screen.

In “A” level science exams candidates are given a data set for which they can be asked to find the mean and standard deviation. Sometimes those data sets contain an anomalous point. Candidates are encouraged to discard or discount this datum point from fitted {by eye} lines of best fit and out of statistical analysis. They can be asked to justify why they discarded the anomalous data point.
From an early age the anomalous is suspect and can be discounted when it is convenient so to do.
Without being dramatic or upset about it I find it ok to speculate that I am abnormal. One could even go so far as to call me an anomalous being. As such it is entirely justifiable to ignore and otherwise discount anything I might say or do.
I am not glamoured by my abnormality nor do I find it a turn on. I am simply not normal. No biggie. No drama. I am not special either.
Life goes on just fine there is no need to take me into account. Even if one did it would not sway the average or normal much at all.
I am comfortable with this detached analytical thinking. There is no supposed to or should.
One of the things that I have pretty much stopped doing is “reaching out” to others. Experimentally this causes a lot less hoo-ha and drama. I don’t like to cause people problems so by not impinging on their lives or otherwise inflicting myself I limit any harm I might do. I am less harmful. I cause no perturbation.
The good thing about a blog is that if you don’t like it, it only takes a click of a mouse to leave. If someone arrives by accident they can leave intentionally PDQ. Any accidental perturbation is largely remedied in an instant. If people want to have a look-see they can, there is no pay wall, no fee and I am not tarting for anything.
If people want to read my ramblings that is up to them…
I’ll make a comment here. Modern psychology and psychiatry would very likely medicate and or section under the mental health act many of the figures in religion, the very pillars thereof. The visionary basis of “religious” experience might be diagnosed as an illness or a syndrome. Someone could win a prize and have it named after them.
It too would be abnormal though history has suggested {with hindsight} that it has also been significant even in a socio-political sense.
Normal is not always best…
