Why?! When you've seen one, you've seen them all.
I will say though, those things are a lot bigger than they look.

Is there like a contest for the most pointlessly autistic community online that we are not aware of? I used to think the closing logo people were weird, but they make sense now. The classic toilet people are weird, but at least they don't get hyped about something that's actively annoying.

There's a lot of overlap with these weird communities too. I found this when browsing some of the videos in the elevator community thread.
 
If these people are that obsessed with tornado sirens then maybe they should pursue the "career" of being a storm chaser, that's tornado siren gold.
 
Along with railfans (and other transportation-related autism, I notice airport/airliner spergs are big too), the elevator community, the toilet reviewers, etc., this is a rather benign form of autism. These people could actually do something useful with their autistic obsession and get a job developing, working on, researching, etc. their chosen form of spergery. Compared to bronies, Sonicfags, etc., this sort of spergery, odd as it is, can be highly useful to society if these people have a bit of direction.

It's too bad most of these people will never get that direction.

I saw a couple of people in the elevator community appeared to be engineering students so maybe their obsession with elevators did influence their career choices. Though to be fair these things are viewed as less socially acceptable things to "sperg" over. Many perfectly normal men will "sperg" over sports and can talk for hours about their favorite team and know so much trivia and stats about their favorite team.

The irony that is autism: obsessing over something that could lead to a career if applied professionally, but socially inept and insular enough to not do anything about it beyond self-gratification.

But you gotta say that obsessing over tornado sirens or toilets is better than obsessing over Sonic the Hedgehog or My Little Pony.
