Getting Short Shrift From Her Own Daughter
(My grandmother is really short, and my mum loves to tease her about it. They are clothes shopping at the time when the S, M, and L size-system is first implemented in Germany.)
Grandma: “What do those letters mean? I can’t find the right size! [Mum], what do I have to look for?”
Mum: “Z.”
(My grandmother proceeds to hunt through the whole shop, looking for Z.)
Grandma: “There’s no Z! What does Z mean?”
Mum: “Zwerg.”
(That’s German for “dwarf”!)
