squash = the most fun you'll have inside a glass cage.
racquetball = squash's retarded inbred cousin.

Squash ball:
(different color dots indicate different speeds. double yellow is the slowest i think (also the most difficult since it doesn't bounce as much. red is the fastest))Racquetball ball:
(blue balls. much bigger, much faster bounces a lot more and basically comes to you instead of you going to the ball. hence there isn't as much thinking time as in squash, hence less strategy, less fun and more retarded)An example of a squash player (a female is pictured although the game is very popular among men as well):

Played it once or twice. It's an aggressive game, with no sportsmanship or real talent in it. Good for yuppies and desperate edgy fuckers. Nice people with talent play table-tennis and indulge on weaker players. That's all I have to say about this subject.

I play racketball about 3 times a week.
I have never played Squash but it doesnt look like as much fun.
I get hurt a lot, and I have broken 5 rackets.

I played racquetball for about two years, it is great, increases your coordination and it is a great exercise. Squash is not that fun IMO.

i play racquetball with big-papes, and yes, that guy spends more time running into the glass then he does hitting the ball :D
i've also played squash. not nearly as much fun imho. i think it takes more skill/tactics/thought/plan than rb, but well, if i wanted that i would just go and play some fucking chess.

squash is the most stressful game i've ever played. i would've gone through about 100 racquets by now if i wasn't borrowing one!

I'm probably going to take one of the two up, depending on the facilities available. Just to bug some more, how's the learning curve. I'm a super athletic stud beast.
