        Or a Polish joke about the early days of Israel, when there were

so many Polish-speaking immigrants that trolleys supposedly had a
warning sign in Polish:  Wygladaj, wygladaj, bedziesz ladnie
wygladal!* (Vygliadyvai, vygliadyvai, budesh' krasivo vygliadet'!).

*Or if your computer can read Polish: Wyglądaj, wyglądaj, będziesz
ładnie wyglądał.
