I beg to differ. I have one of the largest vocabularies of anyone I know, and I learned most of it from fantasy novels and video games.
Which is not to say that more variety can't help, of course; it does, and always will. But don't dismiss fantasy novels.

Doesn't this just mean that the people you know are stupid?
That aside, I don't understand the concept of wanting to have an overly large vocabulary for everyday speech. I mean, it's a good thing to know what words mean, but it's another thing to actually go about using obscure words just for the hell of it. Throwing around words that nobody else knows just makes other people think you're an asshole. There's nothing wrong with using small, simple words. They're usually more effective.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
