When is something really a sin, me and my friends make fun of eachotherand things like that because we are friends and this is just friends joking around. We trash talk when we play sports and get angry and yell at each othwr when something bad happens which is the others fault, but is doing this a sin like joking around with your friends and like friendly insults, are these sins?
 
we are to PRACTICE being good, rather than practicing evil. Hebrews 5:14 we need to be trained by practice to do good, not evil. we are not OF this world and we should not be seduced by the evil of even superficially insulting their divine dignity, of being made in the image and likeness of God. this banter is evil in itself and worse if it it serves as bad example for others
 
If it causes pain, it’s a sin. If you hurt their feelings with your jokes and comments, then it’s a sin. Take a look at the Ten Commandments. When you violate those, you cause pain to others, including God. Jesus commands us to love God, and love one another. If you do those two things, you won’t sin. Granted, there’s actually more to the concept of sin than that, but this is the simple answer. I hope this helps.
 
Just because someone gets their feelings hurt doesn’t mean someone sinned against them.

A little good natured ribbing is not a sin.

Getting angry at each other… IDK, I guess it depends.
 
Its more like friendly banter you dont mean to hurt them or get them angry but it happens time to time
