The magnificent art of using word play, opinions, exaggeration, irony, sarcasm, and other comedic themes to (playfully) humiliate, make fun of, and laugh at your friends. This word is most commonly used in Britain, but 'Banter' is used around the world.

A word used to describe the teasing and pisstaking which occurs between mates, usually harmless.
However, the past couple of years the word has been hijacked by Justin Bieber lookalike student "LAD" twats who use it to describe anything humorous that occurs. These people are also known as chino wankers, annoying morons and people who need to use a dictionary now and again.

Verbal sparring that's fundamentally friendly, especially needed to deflate the egos of gloating friends

A humerous and witty conversation, statement or remark. Coming back into fashion due to today's youth using it to mean anything remotely humorous, even to the most crude sense of humour.

A term now applied to what was previously known as "Conversation" (if explicitly referred to at all) by a generation whose aspirations have been systematically lowered (due to endless hours of social networking and reality TV) to the point that events which occur naturally, everyday, everywhere are now praised and honoured as achievements.
