In line with several stories on this page already. I can’t vouch for the veracity of the story… it may be apocryphal.

A boy’s family is asking questions about the background of a potential kallah. They ask all sorts of questions about personal conduct (probably including all the stupid shidduch questions — tablecloths, shoelaces, etc.).

Eventually, they get around to asking about the grandparents and great-grandparents of the kallah. After a bunch of questions, they finally ask “and the great-grandparents… are they buried together or separately?” (i.e. was the cemetary mixed men and women or not.)

The person answering the question answers in a measured voice. “They were buried together… naked… in a mass grave in Poland.”

That ended the questions.
