    [MENTION=50537]Thomas Kitchen[/MENTION] : haha, yeah :D

    (since I seem to be on a gossipy mood... there was one needle-dick Brit who wasn't cool at all. Seriously, that place gave British writers -- or "writers" -- a really bad rep, in my eyes anyway, but luckily this forum has slowly restored it, hah)

    I'm Welsh - and proud!
    British people can be really stuck up sometimes, [MENTION=53403]KaTrian[/MENTION], so don't fret! It's the English that are the worst - think they can do anything. Although us Welshies aren't exactly humble, either. :D

    The sad thing about that forum was that the most sensible member was a 13yo kid.

    Anyway, here in Finland it's very common to not only greet your friends with insults, but to trade insults in general atlhough mostly it's just a form of bonding. It's a tad more popular among men, but girls are doing it more and more too. Sometimes if my band (consists of both sexes) gets a new member, they're in for a culture shock if they aren't used to this sort of thing.

    A: Oi, you got an extra pair of ear plugs?
    B: Nope, sorry.
    A: Oh. Well, fuck you, then.
    C (new guy/gal): :confused:

    or

    A: Shit, I broke a string. We gotta do another take.
    B: Don't blame the instrument when you just suck.
    C: :confused:

    Here in Singapore greeting your close friends with insults among guys are fairly common too
