At an old job of mine, we'd all often work at golf courses, in a fenced area, thus we had a mountain of golf balls everywhere in the shop.

We'd always play a game where you'd throw a golf ball at the shop floor, trying to bounce it into the nuts of your coworker. I'd never even think of playing something like that in an office.

Condom/balloon/zip-lock full of acetylene is a classic. Probably don't do it in any workplace large enough to employ anybody with "safety" in their job title though.

My office mates run around with nerf guns like children. It’s not much of a difference tbh. Both are completely inappropriate.

Playing with nerf guns in the office isn’t much different than playing with your colleagues testicles? Huh?

I've been shot in the eye by Nerf darts at my desk, while trying to do work. I don't think that's much different than being hit in the pants by a golf ball thrown by hand.

You should probably get your testicles checked out by a professional if you find these experiences roughly equivalent in nature.

You're missing the point. I'd rather not be shot or hit by my coworkers at all, anywhere.

They're both examples of inappropriate workplace behavior.
