Theres a famous joke that my great grandparents told me. Its whats called a "Chelm Story". In jewish folk tales there is a mystical city of fools called Chelm. In a typical Chelm story, a jew would meet a person from Chelm, called a Chelmer. Hijinks would then follow.

Anyhow heres the joke.

A young jew was walking around the village one day when he came upon a Chelmer. He noticed the strangest thing, the man had one brown shoe and one black shoe.

The jew walked up to the Chelmer and said, "Sir! why do you have one black shoe and one brown shoe?"

The Chelmer is quick to reply, "Well if you think thats interesting, I have another pair just like it at home!
