  • Happy Fun Ball
rdfs:comment
  • Sometimes, horrifically dangerous objects are obvious -- with nasty-looking spikes, painted dark and foreboding colors, covered in Schmuck Bait, and generally like something straight from a 12-year old's Dungeons and Dragons game. And then, it sometimes looks like a cute kitten statue. Aww... nothing that cute could be dangerous. Until it adorably comes to life and claws your face off. Adorably. Not to be confused with a Hyper-Destructive Bouncing Ball, though it might well be one. Examples of Happy Fun Ball include:

  • Sometimes, horrifically dangerous objects are obvious -- with nasty-looking spikes, painted dark and foreboding colors, covered in Schmuck Bait, and generally like something straight from a 12-year old's Dungeons and Dragons game. And then, it sometimes looks like a cute kitten statue. Aww... nothing that cute could be dangerous. Until it adorably comes to life and claws your face off. Adorably. A Happy Fun Ball is something extraordinarily dangerous that looks completely innocent. It might destroy the entire universe, or it might just rip a single person to shreds while looking oh so precious. The fact is, it's incredibly deadly, despite its packaging. A living version of a Happy Fun Ball is a Killer Rabbit. Contrast with Nerf Arm, which is only potentially dangerous because of who uses it, and Improbable Weapon User, the one who uses it. Compare with Excalibur in the Rust, which is also about weapons that don't look like much at first. See also Lethal Joke Item for the video game equivalent, Super Fun Happy Thing of Doom, and The Not-So-Harmless Punishment.
