Cultural Impact

MTV featured a commercial for the album, showing internet character Daniel P. Walters (aka "The Tourettes Guy"), who cursed and complained about the volume.

gollark: I mean, it's not like centrists support crime because crime is something which currently happens.
gollark: Generally centrism means "agreeing with the current political system mostly as is" or "being in the middle of two/however many extremes", not "agreeing with everything which currently exists".
gollark: Hmm. I suppose that's centrist in some ways.
gollark: Slavery is more of an... authright thing.
gollark: What do you mean it's *centrist*?
