在电影Annie Hall里面，Woody Allen一开场就说了一个笑话：
Two elderly women are at a Catskill mountain resort, and one of 'em says, "Boy, the food at this place is really terrible." The other one says, "Yeah, I know; and such small portions."
（请看Youtube上的片段：http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrxlfvI17oY）

我一直忘不了这个笑话。

前阵子读到另一个笑话，跟这个有异曲同工之妙（大意）：
A girl confides in her mother that she has had sex with her boyfriend. The mother tells the dad, who is very conservative.
He decides to intervene. He calls the boy and says to him, "You are a dirty, unworthy and irresponsible piece of scum of the worst order. Now, marry my daughter!"
