I was watching Law and Order: SVU yesterday, because a. I don’t care about the Super Bowl (but I *do* care about the Puppy Bowl and I *did* watch some of that) and b. that’s what I do every Sunday, ESPECIALLY when there’s a marathon. I noticed one of the actresses, the one that replaced Benson while she was mysteriously gone from the show due to a real-life pregancy, Connie Nielsen had a slight accent. I thought maybe German or Scandinavian but turned out to be Danish. Close enough. And via search I discovered that in addition to English and Danish, she also speaks French, German, Italian, Norwegian and Swedish. Cock.
I really need to step up my language game. I have the linguistic brain and learn languages way faster and with a better accent than most people. I’ve been sleeping on Portuguese and I need to start fallando melhor rapidamente. And I’ve been listening to hella French jazz and pop and trying to sing along so I believe I should learn that as well. If Connie Nielsen can do it…
At least I wasn’t raised Mormon.
Listen to some great French Canadian music now:

FRENCH CANADIAN music? oh god. that is the last straw of hipsterville. I will walk away. I will.
But I’m not even a hipster! They won’t take me.
