Perhaps, but tested and true advertising methodology is 1) find a undeniable grain of truth, 2) wrap your message around it, so the consumer is confused into thinking your message is by association true too. You might be right about the sarcastic message 'wrapping', but these posters only work because the messages they're wrapped around are true. I certainly didn't come away from those posters going, 'dang, those guys... so over the top; there's nothing wrong with using strcpy, you're making a fuss about nothing'.
