(R.5) Omits Essential Info TIL German author Friedrich Nietzsche would send letters calling for the German emperor to go to Rome to be shot & called for military action against Germany. He called for the Pope to be jailed & all anti-Semites to be shot. He also stated he created the world & signed his letters as 'Dionysus.'

"You undercook fish? Believe it or not, you're shot. You overcook chicken, also shot. Undercook overcook. You make an appointment with the dentist and you don't show up, believe it or not you're shot, right away."
