My favorite variety of SO question is "how do I do X in $LANGUAGE," because inevitably, people pile in with various answers, and then someone starts benchmarking all of them and providing graphs. Occasionally someone even breaks down the assembly instructions for each solution and explains why one is superior to the other. All in all, a fanatical obsession over something small and relatively unimportant, because they like to learn, and they like to share what they've learned.
