One of my favourites too. I remember first reading it back in the late 70s in, I think, John Keats' biography of Dorothy Parker "
You Might As Well Live". Or it may have been one of Jonathan Green's many anthologies of quotations.
Anyway, Mrs Parker's zinger was quickly up-zingered with
"
He had an erection".
