In Thurber’s The Thirteen Clocks , there was an evil duke who used to “punt puppies and place kick kittens” and because of that, one leg was longer than the other. He’d ask suitors wanting to marry his daughter “what’s the difference between the length of my legs?” and if they’d say “one is shorter than the other” he’d run them through.
