The issue has surfaced in you nonconformists are all alike etc, but it's worth noting that conformist is a relative term; that is you can conform to a particular trend or you can be a nonconformist relative to said trend. Thus, while a person who lives under a bridge, is twelve feet tall, smells funny, and is known for killing yuppies and feasting on their flesh may be a conformist to someone inclined to say"oh, look! An ogre!", such a person would be considered a non-conformist by the rest of consumer culture.
