Every time I read this, it seems to get worse.  I currently envision
running into a tight, middle-aged man in a suit at E3.  He tries to feign a
smile to "interface" with me as he hands me a neatly packaged "water pistol
with technically whimsy logo" and "corporate prospectus and recruitment
brochure".

No sale.

I doubt it's representative of the company (it really can't be!), but it
sure makes it look quite the salt mine.  Not that I relish seeing yet
another "hey, we're so wacky you oughta (honk honk) hack with us!" ad, but
these guys REALLY need to rework their pitch!!!
