I say fucking with me.
Same thing.
No reason to care.

I think fucking with someone can be friendly, though. For instance, in the movie There's Something About Mary,* there was a running joke where Mary would say something shocking and unexpected to one of her friends, get a huge reaction, and then say "I'm just fucking with you!" As in:

"You like that band? Dude, they suck ass!"
"Your MOM sucks ass!"
"My mom's in a coma, you jerk!"
"Oh my god, really? I'm so sorry!"
"Ha! No, I'm just fucking with you."

... not that I'm a language dork or anything. Not at all.

*I'm not exactly a huge Farrelly Brothers fan, but I remembered that gag because when the movie was on TV they had to edit it so she said "just messing with you," and it was amazing how much less funny it was.

I've really only heard it in the context of someone realizing they'd gone to far. It's part of the back-pedal protocol.

Are we supposed to bump these SDRTP threads no matter what?
