    @uauage This is Austria, right? Clarity may be actually appreciated. You could just say: “man, this took me by surprise. We don’t know each other much for these kind of jokes.” He will be embarassed and may distance, but it is not your problem. You will get the boundary you want.

      @uauage I have to admit that once I used this line on a friend, a girl, and she stopped talking to me afterwards. :) I believe it is a way of bonding for these people, so they do get hurt if it is not appreciated.
