Lol. I'm reminded of the scene in Annie Hall. Woody Allen plays Alvie, a neurotic Jewish New Yorker obsessed with the Holocaust. He is sensitive to Anti-Semetic remarks to the point of being paranoid. He remarks to his buddy, played by Tony Roberts (who hilariously calls Alvie "Max" in this scene, a mistake they leave in the movie) about an acquaintance who asked them if they wanted to go to lunch.

"Did you hear him? He said 'Jew eat yet? Not 'did you eat yet', but 'Jew eat yet'?"
