I have a hard time watching missionary videos. I find them triggering. After all these years I still regret that I spent two years of my precious youth in the service of an deceptive greedy organization.
Hopefully you at least learned a second language. That's the only reason I wish I had gone. I've always wanted to gain proficiency in another language. It's hard to do even when you're immersed in their culture, but seems damn near impossible when you aren't.
I went state side, so I didn't even get that.

To be honest most people wouldn't do very well in an impromptu exchange with a practiced missionary/evangelist like that. Those guys at Apologia have to put in a lot of work before they are allowed to go out and stump college kids on camera like that.

It seems that DCP, Kwaku, Hamlin are done-
If you mean Bill Hamblin, uh yeah, definitely done. So done he’s dead. Good job.
From the end spring new beginnings.

I’m devastated. The world lost a masterful comedian- nothing can top Metcalfe is butthead.
