I am more excited about part 2 because we know get more insight to
the narrator as a person and what caused him to have such conflicting thoughts.
I find the diction interesting and how he says, “I made friends with no one”
instead of “I had no friends.” It’s almost as if it was his choice to live a
life of solitude because everyone around him was too incompetent to match his
standards of a person. (such standards not even he can figure out yet because
he doesn’t know them). I think his insecurities had nothing to do with his
looks. What he wanted was for his intelligence to be validated but since he did
not speak to anyone, the way he looked came into play. He understands so much
about his circumstances but always seems so unsatisfied with life. I think he
hated his coworkers because they did not validate his existence in the way he
wished to be seen by others.
