Am I the only one who is really confused by this thread? Most of the things being listed are quintessential Doper preferences/dislikes. For instance… > [@](#): > > My husband and I high-fived when we heard that Sylvia Browne died. How many Dopers were grieving over Sylvia Browne? We practically threw her a [“ding-dong-the-witch-is-dead”](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=708339) party over in Cafe Society. ---

I read through all of these, ready to get my rage on, and nearly everything made me say “Meh.” A few (ketchup on hotdogs, socks with sandals) made me let out a light groan, but that’s it.

The vast majority of things listed here don’t sound at all like things that SDMB members would hate someone for. Unless we’re setting the threshold bar for ‘hate’ really low. ---

I like SpongeBob SquarePants, and watch it with my kid. When I was a kid, I loved vegetables of all kinds, so I was the kid about whom other kids’ parents said “Why can’t you eat Brussels Sprouts and Lima beans, like Rivkah?” ---

RE: circumcision. I think it’s wonderful when Jews do it, because we’re supposed to. I wish gentiles would stop doing it, because WTF? the whole point is to make us different, and when all the gentiles do it, it doesn’t work. There’s gotta be something about me you all hate.
