Somewhat. With less expletives this time. Short rant in the beginning, long rant for the rest. Here's the short rant:
In only three weeks of college, I've begun on the path to absolutely loathing the language I've loved studying for the past four years.
Alright, time for the long rant, which is only kinda a rant, I guess, but anyway.
Joseph Goebbels. Pronounced like "gerrbels". It's really difficult to remember that, Dr. Goebbels, can we please just change the pronunciation of your last name to "goybels"? I know you Germans aren't about pretty, but it would sound much nicer.
Anyway, Dr. Joseph Goebbels. My god, are you a tragedy or what? Did anyone ever hug you as a child? Anyone? You look to me like the kind of person who was never hugged in his life. That's kinda saddening, you know.
It's getting kinda creepy how much you seem to resemble me. Or is it how much I seem to resemble you. Dammit, Goebbels, you've been dead for sixty-some years now, you shouldn't be creeping me out this much! But you liked writing, and you played the piano, and you had low self-esteem, and you took your Catholic faith and told it to shove it. Am I living your life? Am I doomed to become a self-hating, manipulative bastard promoting the deaths of millions, brilliant writings never published?
....NO. MY WRITING NEEDS TO BE PUBLISHED. TT~TT
Well, I guess I'm not a public speaker. And I'm also not a cripple. So that should probably help. But we're kind of getting away from the point I wanted to make.
You're such an interesting character, you know. I haven't gotten halfway through your biography yet and you've already at multiple points made me incredibly sad. Like you and Else. DAMMIT. YOU LOVE HER. STOP PUSHING HER AWAY BECAUSE SHE'S HALF-JEWISH. Seriously, Goebbels. Seriously. You piss me off sometimes. If I had a time machine, I would go back in time and smack you upside the head. But then hug you because I think you really need a hug.
Oh, Joseph Goebbels. He's really a good case for what happens when people are made to feel worthless in one way or another. I really believe that if someone had really attempted to work on his self-esteem as a teenager, he would have turned out completely differently. Goebbels, y u make me so sad? i.i
Has anyone made a movie about this guy yet? I think it would be incredibly interesting.
Alright, I'm done with my ranting. Tata~!
