I had a welding teacher that was always saying that he had read the dictionary twice. It felt like he was saying that as a way to show how he had a superior intelligence or something. It was pretty funny.

Elon Musk claimed to have read an entire encyclopedia as a kid for the same reason

Yeah but lying doesn't count.

That's what I'm saying, he lied to sound intelligent just like the teacher

I mean I actually did but it just meant I had no friends and I wasn't allowed to watch TV. Also human knowledge was pretty basic then and each entry was pretty modest and outliney.

I think it would've been a lot better if I had run around outside or watched power Rangers

Read it multiple times as a kid, Granted it was a punishment from a teacher but still
