I wouldn't say it's effective branding. But look at us talking about it now.

Like shitty Poison songs. I beieve the children are our future. Teach them well and let them lead the way.

Wait till we hear what they'll have the children sing during the election that will require young men in matching shirts to police. Of course, if the Xbox just keeps enough of us defocused..nothing to worry about.
