When I was very young, perhaps 5 or 6, I asked my dad, "Does the President(of the U.S.) own the world?"
He replied, "Well, he thinks he does."
Not having been introduced to the concept of sarcasm, I spent several years thinking that the President was this poor deluded soul whom everyone was humoring.
