  Rob : You’re a total paranoid.

  Alvy Singer : Well, how am I a para-? I pick up on those kind of things. You know, I was having lunch with some guys from NBC, so I said, uh, “Did you eat yet or what?” and Tom Christie said, “No, didjew?” Not, “did you”, “didjew eat?” Jew? No, not “did you eat”, but “Jew eat”? Jew. You get it? Jew eat?
