I really don't get to banter with anyone around here. probably because i'm American. Brits really just don't get American banter. Anything I say on this forum is taken deadly seriously.

You were on my list

Aww Ammi :blush2:

yea, but we don't really go back and forth like proper banter.

like to me proper banter is just back and forth, and you don't have to worry about people misinterpreting you, or getting offended, or asking you to explain everything about what you say. It just flows.

It's like 100% on the same wavelength. I definitely don't have that with anyone here. not even Lee who i've talked with with the most, i still have to measure my words somewhat.

I do feel like i have to second guess everything i say on this forum, what other ways could this be interpreted, who might report me if i say this...i never feel 100% comfortable just having banter on the forum.

..you're right Alex and if I'm honest..?..it's only recently that I've started to understand when you're serious or joking, I probably don't always get it right either, not only with you but others as well...I think that's the thing about the internet and forums, well for me anyway because I've never done facebook/msn etc..I'm only on a few forums and only for a few years..so maybe there's some sort of 'internet code' that I don't know about when you can tell how a comment/post etc is meant...

..I'm also of a different age to most people on TiBB, and also maybe sometimes a different humour..?..although what's helped for me is that I have children who are similar ages to a lot of TiBBers, and spent years around them and their friends/partners etc...and sometimes I'll even ask them to explain something I might have read on TiBB..a phrase/terminology etc that I haven't understood but felt stupid asking...I remember putting my foot in it once with something a member said and it was a sexual term that I had never heard of and I took her post in earnest and really felt dumb...

..anyeay, I'm rambling lol...(I do that a lot..)...one of the things that has helped me a lot to get to know people in general better..(including their humour..)..is to chat to them on their walls...maybe sometime, even with time differences etc...I'll get a chance to chat to you...I would really like that...mind you, I will say now..I'm not funny....

the word banter makes me ill

but smithy/dylan/jonathan i guess

aND AMMI HOW COULD I FORGET AMMI

firewire gets his own line for his snapchats.

David, Matt (MTVN), Karl, Lucas, Drew, Leon, Stu

there are people i find just as funny as them lot though but i wouldn't have a " Jolly good Chuckle " with them so to speak

Jack_ and Patrick's posts can have me in stitches sometimes, Munchkins, Sophieee (because I'd say we're on similar wavelengths). I enjoy Zee's MKS humourous stan posts and gifs. DrunkerThanMoses, Marc, Ariel.... Azealia gif battles with Shaun.. and plenty more I'm sure. :tongue:

****ing 'jolly good chuckle'

Kazanne, Kizzy, Chuff, Simps, Hermit, Visage
:love:

I saw your first comment at the top and was going to post... awww Shauny, everyone loves you... you being on everyone's list just goes without saying.

Then I saw I wasn't mentioned and remembered that you have a mental block where I'm concerned... so phuq you.

Some of the desperation in this thread :joker:

Lucas, michael, Smeagol, Johnny, MMI, Cherie, Claudia, Tozzie. But there are so many others that also make me laugh so much. :hugesmile:

Ariel :lovedup:

Hopefully she comes back for Survivor.

And Vanessa :hug:

Simple minds & Kate. Both lovely people.

Jesus, Marc, Niamh and Ben.

I want Ariel back :bawling: I miss our CorinneGoddess chant-worshipping.

what happened to her? She never did finish that highly incorrect Survivor list did she

Josy, Niamh, Nathan, Samuel, Marcus are the people I most like/get a long with on here

She hasn't been in here for ages. :(
