I’d say it’s a matter of intent. “Smack” and banter = OK, so long as it’s clear to smacker and smackee that it’s all in fun, not a serious slam. And as long as it’s not scatalogical or profane (remember, that’s what email’s for!)

I wouldn’t frequent a place where I couldn’t make at least the occasional rude reference to Derek’s mom. She wouldn’t either - or so she says.
