But the good news is you just kinda learn quite a bit about every hobby you pick up, so people are always impressed with how much random stuff you know.

Crap, I have ADHD
The story of this community 😂
With that I relate. I don't have knowledge, but only surface information about a variety of topics, because I fricking jump from one thing and the other, and this maddens me.
My knowledge base has the breadth of an ocean, but the depth of a puddle.
Good comparison
Analogy* 🤓
Thanks, I'm not native, so my written English is janky, but at least I can convey my meaning.

Yeah, that's what's most important. I just wanted to help you out with the emote as a joke.
This is true, though sometimes one may unintentionally come across as a "know it all" (I know this from experience). Having an unending number of hobbies and the philosophy of "there is no such thing as useless knowledge", just leads to accruing knowledge on a wide breadth of topics and surprising depth on some of the more esoteric.
I can tell you about some of the practical efforts required to safely raise chickens in the PNW (free-range, in a yard, or chicken tractors), several forms of metal casting, basic garment construction, luthiery, gardening, archery, industrial microbiology, and a number of other things. My former boss would often ask if I knew anything about a given unusual topic that came up in conversation, just to see if he could find something that I didn't have any knowledge or experience with (really old programming languages like COBOL were among the winners). Now, I'm currently really into digital electronics, so, I'm shopping around for an oscilloscope and other equipment that would allow me to reverse engineer some of the newer protocols.
