J'Ouvre Les Parenthèses

Whenever my Economy teacher, Mme. Braun gets off topic in class, which happens quite often, she always opens and closes the parentheses. Today, she made a Titanic reference. When she asked about the Celine Dion song and no one knew the reponse, I automatically said, "My Heart Will Go On." Of course, I used my normal American accent to say this. She just looked at me and said, "Can you repeat that so I can understand?" Without missing a beat, I said, in the most amazing French accent in the world, "My Arte Weeeel Goh Onne". Everyone died of laughter, but Madame understood this time. She then closed the parentheses and went on with class.
