it's a trait of czechs ... we're usually sarcastic ... it's something
you learn when being occupied for most of your recent history by other
countries ... try thinking about what I actually meant instead of
the literal meaning of the sentence ... (although don't do this
for everything I say ... as most of the time it has no deeper meaning,
if it has a meaning at all)

here's a story for you ... one of my dad's collegues (who is extremely
sarcastic), when he moved from czech to us ... has had to learn to say
"I'm kidding" after about every 2nd sentence ... as people were taking him
seriously ... he didn't have this problem in czech .. as people are used
to it ...

hmmm ... I havent learned to say "I'm kidding" yet ... 

on this note ... I think you should be shot as well
