My obsession changes frequently. One month is films and the next it's The Elder Scrolls. There is no all encompassing single topic, so I can't vote here. All of my topics are an easy 8 when I'm into them, but I'm not only into one thing all of the time. It changes often.

That applies to me a bit, too. I have different interests and my main focus of special interest changes from time to time. I think when I am focused I would also vote 8 for that particular topic and since there's always something I obsess over in that level I voted 8 although the topic I am obsessed with miht change, but not the degree of obsesion when I am into it.

I'm very obsessed. I voted a 9 on the scale. If anything related to Germany comes up, I get super excited and I scream with happiness and flap my hands (even in public!). I have a huge German flag on my bedroom wall :lol: and have been to Germany countless times.

Just to make you a bit excited: I am from Germany. :wink:
Have you already visited the German threads in the foreign languages subforum? You might enjoy it.

Don't you think that Low German is close to Dutch?
