22. Reference to Kristallnacht
Die Kristallnacht, also known as die Reichskristallnacht (literally Imperial Crystal Night), die Pogromnacht and in English as the Night of Broken Glass, was a massive nationwide pogrom in Germany and Austria on the night of November 9, 1938 (including early hours of the following day). It was directed at Jewish citizens throughout the country and was one of the early events of the Holocaust.

(You ain't never been a dumby, it was rather obscure, especially as an English phrase.)
