RedScript – like CoffeeScript, in Ruby
"Full balls" is pretty colloquial, but I imagine it was intentional. It makes sense to me.
Kind of like "balls out" or "balls to the wall." Or even "balls deep." Y'know?

Definitely intentional. I like to color up language or throw a curveball in a well-understood idiom. Nobody does that anymore, and they used to do it all the time. Now we just reuse the same tired idioms over and over again. Blah.
