Yes, indeed. It's what happened to blue jeans some years ago. Guess?
Girbeau? My dear friend, the late Widow Geraldine refused to buy
designer jeans with this rationale: "I'll be damned if I'm giving free
advertising to that company. If I'm wearing anyone's name on my ass,
it'll be my own." She was a woman of few words. God rest her soul.

In your dreams. I believe you'd see the latter only if your chips have
a special cachet about them.
