Slight exaggeration permitted, this is a thread about the extremes of opinion you may find (or have seen) on the SDMB…
On the SDMB, you will find people who claim it’s impossible to remember anything before your 5th birthday, and you’ll find people who claim to remember beating all the other spermatazoa in the race for the egg…
…people who put ketchup on hot dogs, and, you know, normal people.
… people that will tell you to MYOB if someone is shooting at you while smoking crack and molesting a child, and people that will tell you to call the police because someone looked at you funny.
… people that will get all up in arms in offense at the slightest little thing, and people that will use actual racial slurs in their thread titles.
On one side, we have had people that claim they have no time perception at all whatsoever. If they show up late for anything, it is because there is no difference between 11 am and 9 pm in their mind. Time is just an man-made construct used to force others into an artificial world that they have no knowledge of and no way to comply with.
In the opposing corner, we have the authoritarian clock referees who use clocks synced with the national atomic clocks as a weapon especially in the workplace. They will be usually be reasonable and throw a few penalty flags before things like firings begin but the threat is always there. I fall more into this category but we have had some who view clock management as a goal unto itself regardless of any larger goals or priorities.
…who put peanut butter on their hot dogs.
What?
… six of one, a bijective correspondence with the set of four-dimensional convex regular polytopes of the other.
… lies, damned lies and Bayesian inference.
…people who claim a single wisp of pubic hair make the genitals as appealing as a Superfund waste site and people who claim that desiring anything less than a dense rainforest of hair makes you a virtual pedophile.
Shoes on in the house, shoes off in the house.
That isn’t funny. Some of us have blood pressure issues and we don’t need to be reminded of past unpleasantness. If you want to start that shit, I will be more than happy to meet you with my posse that says shoes on are perfectly fine and ordering milk to drink in a bar is never OK especially on first date.
Sometimes they’re even the exact same person.
People who start frothing at the mouth if a bean comes within 50 miles of a pot of chili, and people with normal blood pressure.
People who vote in every election, and those who don’t see the point of voting, period.
In other words, pretty much the cross section of any given population.
. . . people who are sticklers about every rule of punctuation (especially apostrophes), capitalization, abbreviation, spelling and syntax.
. . . people who fill an entire page (or more) with a monologue containing no punctuation, capitalization or sentence/paragraph breaks.
People who think it’s perfectly acceptable to wear a torn T-shirt and filthy sweat pants to a wedding because clothes should be comfortable above all else and the idea of “nice” clothes is a scheme dreamt up by evil dictators for nefarious purposes…
And people who iron their suits and ties as they don them on upon rising from bed every morning and would not dream of stepping out of the house in anything less than formal attire.
Just me, all you wonderful people out there in the dark!
Heck, I use an actual racial slur in my username!
Oh, wait, never mind, I’m named after a coin…
Those are the interesting cases 
:
Of course! I expect no effect on the outcome of the election, I vote out of habit.
That could be a form of sticklerism, if you see those things as modernist innovations or something.
People who are looking for hotel recommendations in Laüs, and people who are recently homeless.
People who will shoot your pet cat if it wanders into their yard and people who will shoot you if you declaw your cat.
People who tip. Cheap bastids.
No toilet seat shout-out?
Up or down, male vs female… Blood is always spilled.
On the SDMB, you will find…
People who have never heard of switching knife and fork when cutting food and then eating it, and people who have never heard of NOT switching a knife and fork when cutting food and then eating it.
LOTR fanatics who will claim the film(s) were crap, because in one scene 42:31:03 minutes into film, Legathalos raises his right hand to swat a fly, and on page 362 in the book it clearly states that he raised his LEFT hand to swat the fly and Peter Jackson is Satan because he ruined the film like that!
lots of people who love kitties, and lots of people who wonder if cats really do taste like chicken.
MMMMM Kitteh chickin MMMMMMM
