Yeah, so I'm not one of those people. I'm so extraordinarily untalented and boring that The Friendly Banter is pretty much just me writing about how talented, funny and interesting other people are. Like the other day, I sent my sister an anecdote about a friend of mine who wants to build me a bike. She laughed her head off, saying she read it over and over again as she peed her pants. The only thing was, all of the funny bits - the quotes, the situations - were all about my friend, not me. I wish I could be funny too.
In actual fact, I'm so NOT funny that I'm hoping to convince my funny friends to write for this blog so I can then pretend that I do all the writing before stealing the credit (and their glory) and focusing all the attention on how funny I am. Everyone will then applaud my talent and I'll probably receive some sort of medal for my amazing insights and contribution to popular culture.
The Friendly Banter is pretty much just dialogue, conversation and situations I've overheard, eavesdropped on, observed or fabricated, and a whole heap of funny lines and anecdotes that I've stolen from other people and claimed as my own.
If you'd like to contribute to The Friendly Banter, please email me! I can then give you my login and password so you'll have no choice but to post as "Jez", thus allowing me to look as though I'm the funny one, not you.
