Me, a German, reading "Hertz" the way it's meant to be pronounced so the pun doesn't work (also marvelling at this amazing display of sophisticated humor that we Germans so painfully lack):

Guess you haven't heard enough English accents yet. I've heard it pronounced close enough to "Hertz" a few times.

I've heard loads of English accents, but no matter how many of them I'm familiar with, I'll still read German names in a German pronunciation cause my German brain is used to that.
