@SebastianKoppehel That one occurred to me after I wrote the first response. It's not a very common swear word.

But there may well be people who use it with greater frequencies.

@Cairnarvon I'm not sure being obsessed with something makes one any good at it. Just recall some of the users you've seen on this site...

It turns out I've written exactly one thousand answers on this site now.

@JoonasIlmavirta Did you notice the irony--obsessive users--I've written 1000 answers? English humour at its finest. Seriously, why did you feel a need to announce this? There are two possible schools-of-thought: in America people are expected to announce their achievements; here, exact opposite, we are to keep quiet about them and let reputation do the talking. You are a top man in your field, physics & maths and pretty good at Latin; therefore, your reputation stands tall.

@JoonasIlmavirta Obsessive users e.g?

@tony Users that are obsessed over a specific field or a specific point of view. Being passionate about Latin is fine, shouting one's opinions in others' faces isn't.

I'm not going to name any names here.

@JoonasIlmavirta I didn't expect you to, just one of my silly jokes. I can think of a few candidates. I won't name them lest they still read CHAT. Seriously, there's a fine line between passion and obsession; I've been accused of overdoing things. When it's pointed out, people can return to reality....And good sense.
