## Disclaimer
This project is largely a joke and hasn't really been tested. If you run into a problem, feel free to make an issue though. I'd be interested to see if people have an actual use for this. All the greetings are from [Jennifer's Language Page](http://users.elite.net/runner/jennifers/index.htm#International) which is honestly an amazing resource.
