"Jewish Mothers - from Leo Rosten" joke

One of my favorite jokes, a telling commentary on Jewish mothers'
capacity to lay on guilt, involves the mother who gave her son two
neckties on Chanuka.
"The boy hurried into his bedroom, ripped off the tie he was
wearing, put on one of the ties his mother had brought him, and hurried
back. "Look, Mama! Isn't it gorgeous?"
"Mama asked, 'What's the matter? You don't like the other one?'"
from Hooray For Yiddish by Leo Rosten
