My boys over at Overtime Comedy have used their imaginary time machines to dig up the above Nintendo commercial from the wonderful world of pasta and stereotypes about mob involvement, Italy. As a worldwide phenomenon (and since I owe the OC money), I wanted to pass this gem on to you, dear readers.

Apparently, in the late 80s, all it took to woo una bella is a tiny plastic controller, tens of pixels, and a phallic mushroom sliding seductively across a hard stone floor. Sadly, European women have become more sophisticated in the mean time, and most now require at least a pony and actual, y'know, affection before commencing with la attività sessuale.

Except the French.

Note: I pronounced that "Enh-E-ES-E-ist" not "Nessiest." I prnounced the letters like I always do.

Although I have a friend who calls it "ness."

Nex...your article titles still are best.

I like how he attempts to say "What are you playing today?" in a nearly indecipherable Italian accent.

How can you have a Mario commercial with sexual overtones without making a joke about mushrooms making you "bigger"?
