If uh, if you want to expand on your graph-making skillz, I know of a book you should read. Look up Edward R. Tufte and his book The Visual Display of Quantitative Information.

Funnily enough, we were assigned to look at Tufte’s stuff for this project! Really neat stuff.

Anyway, 222 sets? Dang son. Did you keep the boxes or something? There’s no way I’d be able to count all the sets I have so precisely.

I wouldn’t be able to either.
I cheated and used Brickset. I knew I didn’t have any sets before 1998, so I went through all the sets/themes for each year after that, and checked off the ones I had. Turns out I have a lot less sets than I originally thought.

This makes me happy.
Sometimes I can’t tell if he’s insane or a genius, but his graphs are fantastic.

XD that works.
I still wouldn’t be able to do that… At some point we got a bunch of old Futuron and Blacktron sets from a friend of my mother’s, then there’s all the random sets I wouldn’t be able to remember like random Arctic, Alpha Squad, Rock Raiders and Harry Potter sets from the 90’s that my brother got.
I could probably count all the post 2004 sets… ¯\(ツ)/¯
