Learn:
C - Procedural
Smalltalk - Object-Oriented
Prolog - Logical

Don't learn:
Lisp - Homosexual
C++ - Bloated
Java - Antipatterns are Patterns
Python - Close-minded
Perl - Clusterfuck
Ruby - Just plain shitty.

C - K&R2
Smalltalk - Google it. Pharo has a built-in interactive tutorial.
Prolog - Google it. Use SWI-Prolog.

Learned Java in a german Gymnasium with technical focus, messed a bit with C and Assembler, reading SICP now

I studied FIOC in my spare time and learnt procedural programming half assedly. It actually took me several years to learn how to write code that wouldn't make me puke afterwards. Regardless, I entered ``College'' and they taught us... Python. Just my luck. Then they shoved us Java down our throats and had to pick a random book to make heads or tails of their class based-OO and static typing. I threw too much time out of the window in the Portland Patterns Repository, which could have been better spent reading SICP if I had known of it... but at least I learnt that design patterns are a disease of the mind.

Then I started reading SICP...

Oh, and there were a bunch of imperative languages in the mean time, but what gives.

tl;dr Read SICP

Taught myself Perl by dissecting the old UBB code and writing my own blog, chatroom, and bulletin board.
