@FlockOfCats Is true for me.

@FlockOfCats @shansterable I *knew* I was in the right place!
We never had an encyclopedia until 10th grade when my dad remarried and we moved into my stepmom’s house.
My stepbrothers were partying and playing sports and dating girls, but I was no good at those things, and besides, have you seen the encyclopedia???
@markc568
We had a full set of Funk and Wagnalls plus my aunt gave me a full-color illustrated encyclopedia that was about 8 inches thick that I used to peruse at my leisure LOL. -
@FlockOfCats Dictionary, but yep. It me.
@wcbdata @FlockOfCats Me too! (Plus the Brittanicas)

My parents kept *three encyclopedia sets* - I think 1911, 1946, 1980? And a one volume attempt from the 1890s.
The lot of them partly to see how What We Know changes, but also they had different good stuff.

I read technical manuals and research papers of all disciplines for fun, since before I learned how to read 🥰
My parents were always bringing home pretty awesome books of physics and all the other sciences and arts. My brain is a happy place
