If that one sounds weird, the translation misses the point that it’s a masturbation reference. It should be “i beat my balls to it”. Compare with “je m’en branle”, litterally “i jack to it”
Ah, that makes more sense. Although considering how much people seem to like masturbating, it’s not a huge insult to say you’d rather do that than something else.
I always understood it to mean “i slap my balls with it”, meaning that whatever were talking about is used to self inflict testicular pain, which is not something enjoyable

I think it was a translation of « je m’en bats les couilles »
(Which would translate more to “I slap my balls OF it”)
Ball grammar today… who would’ve thunk 😅
That makes no sense to me. If you’re masturbating to something it means you care about it quite a bit!
You’re not jacking off to it, it’s more that masturbating is more important to you than whatever it is
