Definition of lively discussion.

Ah, break times at work, how I miss those day's. 
Lively ? Nothing was sacred. Nothing. None of us agreed on anything but we laughed our way through every break. 
Dirty jokes, ascerbic commentary on every subject, ripping the latest copy of funeral woodworking magazine to shreds and laughing at the readers letter's to the Editor.
This is not how Church organ builders are supposed to behave !
But it never got ugly. Nobody got fired. 
We let off steam then happily went back to our benches. Very therapeutic actually.
Because no matter how serious the subject, we made jokes about it.
