Gonzo McFee posted:I think it genuinely is. It's one of those things about being British that I've never really liked. Someone you barely know insults you but in the cadence of "Hey you seem like you're a nice guy who can take a joke". If you take it well and give it back then you are a good guy and will receive more banter. If you don't then you're a oval office who can't take a joke and marked out for more banter, but less shielded and more openly bullying. It's the social interaction equivalent of those youtube prank videos where someone smashes up a Tesco but in a Spiderman costume. i dunno i'm british and i think this is very accurate

And as someone else from the UK yes, it's very accurate. Receiving 'bants' is largely indistinguishable from someone being a dick to you a lot of the time.

I learned everything I know about English culture from the 2004 classic The Football Factory. You basically divide your time between torturing your mates with bantz and assaulting Millwall fans.

When I went to the UK in the early 1990s, I was expecting it to be a mix of "A Clockwork Orange" and "All Creatures Great and Small", and damned if that wasn't almost right on target

the only time nutella has ever tasted remotely good was after strenuous physical activity, so Kojima's onto something.
