Yes, Milton, you're right, it's reminiscent of the old Woody Allen
joke (I'm cutting and pasting this so don't blame me for details):

 ``"...two elderly women are at a Catskill mountain resort, and one of
  'em says, "Boy, the food at this place is really terrible." The
  other one says, "Yeah, I know; and such small portions."''
