Like, imagine you're a kid and watch Star Wars for the first time, but nobody else around you has seen or heard of Star Wars, and nobody you tell about it cares enough to take the time to watch it And you go your entire life being the only person you know who's seen Star Wars.

I sort of feel this way now with my recent addiction to LitRPG books.

Fandom isolation was pretty much life for everyone prior to the internet. I was the only person I knew who read LOTR, Philip K Dick, and many others. Even when I was in college it was hard to find people who liked similar things. There just wasn't an easy way to find people

Definitely on LOTR... until the movie came out. Then it was overload. People telling me I should read the hobbit if I liked the lord of the rings movie
I study the silmarillion before bedtime my dude.

Boy I feel this one very, very deeply. But for Robert Jordan's Rhuidean sequence.

I'm thankful my dad let me peruse his sci-fi/fantasy books and would discuss them with me. Having someone to geek out with is nice.

For me that was anime and manga. Back then it was incredibly niche. A tiny section in the nerdiest basement comic stores. I must've been 17 when I first met a half-Japanese kid who knew what Ranma 1/2 and Dragon Ball Z were.
