That doesn't preclude it from being friendly. Part of the friend experience is jockingly busting each others balls ocassionally.

- gsf_emergency_6 9mo agoJockingly? Is this meant to suggest that brutal honesty is an adjacent pasttime of jocks? The man who is brutally honest enjoys the brutality as much as the honesty. Possibly more. Another thing in the domain of "friendly" that this brings to mind is "fire". I have oft experienced this metaphorical friendly fire but they never seem to be as therapeutic as well-targeted irony :)

Though I was talking about sarcasm and playful busting of balls in general, not necessarily through brutal honestly. Could be sarcastic and outlandish or fan, not necessarily honest.
