That series of statements was because she has been self-studying Swedish, for reasons that make no sense to anyone but her. She seems to be sort of picking at N. European languages in general as a thing-- not sure if she is sifting and looking for "the pattern" or what, but that would be well in keeping with her nature as a learner.

So her dad was teasing her that if she were going to move to Sweden (because she is fundamentally completely socialist in her worldview), she needed to like COFFEE a lot more than she does...

and I pointed out that Stockholm almost certainly isn't in her future with her current major...


It's just that kind of household. Snark begets snark.
