To a certain extent joking abuse is used among folks who know each other really well to ironically emphasize how close they are. It's especially common in all-male working groups. I used to hear this kind of talk all the time at work, before my transition.

But one fellow used to do it incessantly...and all of it of about the tenor of dhamsic's latest "Ass pumping anal spelunker". It was like reading "The Dilber Hole" every day for hours on end. It used to get wearying and distatsteful after a while, especially since the themes of it led me to conclude the guy was simply a classic, raging homophobe.

My revenge on him was my gender transition. Even though he'd left the department he was still with the company...and had to work with me occasionally. He was one of the very few people who really couldn't deal with it, and the *only* one that I took copious delight in how uptight working with me made him. :-)
