All the languages mentioned up to this point are imperative (or "multi-paradigm", which is still mostly imperative). Learning how to program in a functional language, like Haskell or ML, should broaden your programming horizons and improve how you think about programming, even if you're still writing most of your code in C++.

java, javascript, python, dabbling in clojure. bash/tcl don't count...

Python is a good one to learn. It is fairly easy to understand and you can code in a few different styles. Python has its own set of problems, but if you know enough to encounter them then you're prolly able to figure out what the next language you want to learn is.

I started learning c++ a long long time ago but never finished and now finishing learning it.

I've worked with HTML and CSS for years

Done the occasional game scripts for particular games that use scripting for add ons, mostly RPGs

How about you guys?

C++ - in fact *all* Object Oriented languages - are for fairies and lightweights. Heres the only languages and real man needs:

1) C - for fast hard-core code that gets shit done
2) Matlab - for prototyping epic maths wisdom
3) PHP - for all the web junk and sticking it all together
4) Mysql - for all that data shyte

Good languages:
python, C, and C++
then from C++ learn the qt development kit. cross platform GUI applications, what bitcoin-qt uses

why python? for most simple apps, python will get you to where to want to go faster than C/C++. It won't run as fast, but for many programs it doesn't matter. Learning real languages (C and C++) will let you know what you're missing so you can pick and choose when you use scripting languages and when to use real languages.
