When a product uses
to:
When a product uses \"XXX\" because it\'s porn (or in reference to the porn usage of XXX) I don\'t think this trope should apply. It\'s more of a pun in that case -- the \"XXX\" does not exist solely because it\'s cool, but to suggest the lurid nature of the product.

The offending examples in this case are XXXenophile, Mad Moxxxie, [=XXXtreme=] Motorsport, and possibly Speakerboxxx.

I\'ll grant that \"XXX\" in its original usage -- implying that a movie is so filthy it was rated worse than X -- is indeed an example of this trope, however.
