Nuts.  One of my favorite wisecracks is based on Rhoda once joking on MTMS that at birth she'd been kidnapped from the Gypsies by a roving band of Jewish mothers.  When I use it, it's Lutheran mothers who stole me from my alleged Roma heritage.  My sister was shocked recently when she heard me say it, 'cause she uses a variant of the line, too, and had forgotten where we got it.
