I understand that you don't want to be using a negative word such as drone, but lets not use one that lowers ourselves. I mean ok we could say, they are "normal" and we are "weird". But thats just as negative because it lowering ourselves. And really, if there are so many of us, are we really weird? Ok, i have a good one that ive heard used before though. They are do'ers and we are thinkers. Although we do stuff too, we are set aback from doing to much because we think alot also.
