Being what would have once been deemed as odd or weird, has now gone mainstream. It can also be called annoying. Depending on which camp you're setting up tent in. The word quirky has a tendency to bring Zooey Deschanel to the forefront of most minds. She is the poster girl for quirky, the campaigner, the very living, breathing definition.
