@Psycho: technically, if it's still in its wrapper, it's probably still edible Wink. But I'm sure you imagined a Werther's Original with ancient drool.

... Did we scare people off? No new people for almost a month now.

Welcome Purplewig and Preme! What a good way for you to start the new year Cool

@Purplewig: Does 'disturbing childrens cartoons' mean something along the lines of 'Happy Tree Friends'? I've watched a lot of those ~8-10 years ago.
Also, do you already have an extended knowledge of foreign languages? Would you like a job with overall knowledge of languages or a specific one (like say: Spanish)?

I meant stuff more like Watership Down, the Plague Dogs, or Ringing Bell. Things that were technically made for children but carry darker messages. Happy Tree Friends is alright but the joke gets kind of old after a while.

I'm nowhere being fluent in Spanish but if I actually became good at it then I would love a job like that! Actually either one sounds great! My overall goal is to learn as many languages as I can so I guess I lean more toward the second one.

Is English your native language? Do you know any others, or just Spanish?

I'm a native English speaker. Besides the few random bits of Japanese I've picked from anime Spanish is all I know.
