Where does Louis C.K.'s off-kilter comic vision come from? Turns out the answer may be "Mexico." C.K. was born in Washington, D.C., but moved to his father's native Mexico at age one – he and his family didn't move back to the U.S. until he was seven or so. "Coming here and observing America as an outsider made me an observing person," C.K. tells senior writer Brian Hiatt in the new issue of Rolling Stone. "I grew up in Boston and didn't get the accent, and one of the reasons is that I started in Spanish. I was a little kid, so all I had to do was completely reject my Spanish and my Mexican past, which is a whole lot easier because I'm white with red hair. I had the help of a whole nation of people just accepting that I'm white."@Curionic
