Cool Ball on Game Boy - Advertisement Review

Now I don't know about you, but at first I thought this advertisement was complimenting part of my manliness. But then I read it a little closer and realized that either they're talking about some "new" video game character or they are speaking to the gamers who survived testicular cancer. It's Cool Ball, a video game character with a very unfortunate name. And it's probably safe to say that the name didn't do him any favors, either ... I have a hunch this is the first time you've even heard of this Game Boy title.

But enough with the anatomy lesson, this advertisement is more than just bawdy humor ... it's about a shiny ball with a Mohawk! With his Mr. T look in check Cool Ball (or is that Ball Cool?) is ready to show those bitches what it's like to be a badass video game hero. Actually, judging by the innocent look of his girlfriend I'm starting to doubt that this ball is very "cool." He has the sunglasses and the Mohawk, but what's with the hammer? If this guy was really cool he'd be packing some heat, he wouldn't let the local MS-13 gang have their way with her. As it is he's more of an Adequate Ball, he still has a lot of work to do before he's Cool Ball.

And while we're spending too much time looking at his picture, am I the only one that notices his freakishly long left arm?? Thanks to the hammer we get a good look at how long his right arm is, and from what I can tell it's not very long. But if you look at his virginal girlfriend you will notice that he has his left arm all the way around her ... which would mean that one arm is about 25 times longer than the other! What is that about? If this guy really does have one arm that is the entire length of his body then what's she doing with him? I mean, it doesn't even look like she has any hands! Maybe it's best we don't continue down the path that leads to the strange mating habits of the Cool Ball.
