I do find the things you describe incomprehensible. They are the exception to "nothing human to me is alien."

Maybe it comes from reading Jonathan Swift and Dr. Seuss at a young age.

Remember in Gulliver's Travels, the people who fought over which end of the breakfast egg to eat first, the round end or the pointed end?

Remember the Star-bellied Sneeches?

It's the stuff of farce. For real, though, it makes zero sense.
