Anthropomorphized testicles are nothing new in advertising. But Australian agency Clemenger BBDO in Melbourne offers a humorous new addition to the pantheon with this campaign for Bonds underwear—in which two balls banter about life down under, which gets markedly better with the arrival of the company's product.

"Men's testicles have to put up with a lot in life. Heat, cold and—shudder—impact all affect them," says agency group managing director Simon Lamplough. "The least men can do is keep 'The Boys' comfy in a nice new pair of Bonds undies."

This is illustrated in the first of what will be three comical online films, featuring a pair of balls hanging around in wicker chairs, arguing with the brain, dealing with sudden impacts and generally seeking a less confusing, painful existence—which Bonds provides.
