The OED Loves Me Not

Boy, am I impressed! So you've never been abroad more than
a few days and you don't seem to have had long-lasting
relations with foreigners, and you've managed to write
English that well, huh!

I assumed you'd been abroad for at least five years -- and
when you were rather young too.

As for my full nickname, I've used it once here at the English
learners's BBS here on 5-channel too, say, five years ago or so.
I used it for eight months, during which time they kept attacking me
day and night, ten times or even more, every single day.
Since I'm not insensitive and healthily stupid enough to manage
to stay here that way, I stopped using the nickname here.

But now I'm not much of what I used to be. Even though I'm still
rather weak and sensitive, I'm old and don't care about things any longer.

Besides, whether I use my nickname or not, they've always recognized me
and kept abusing me anyway, since I came here for the very first time,
say, seven years ago or so. The nickname "OED" was given to me
by someone here because I didn't hesitate to cite quotations from
the quintessential Oxford English Dictionary (not the single-volume ODE
but the 20-volume OED, mind you). So they started calling me OED
about two weeks after my first visit here.

Somehow, whether I write in English or Japanese, I seem to write in
instantly-recognizable phrasing. Besides, other than myself, there don't
seem to be anyone else ready to answer almost every question from
English learners -- in an exhaustive manner, quoting all kinds of authoritative
books and dictionaries. That's what seems to make me readily recongizable.
