Interesting title. It is wordplay on the old movie title "Sex, Lies, and Videotape", where 'videotape' gets changed to the topic under discussion.
Of those three, " videotape " is the only one that is obsolete, while the others are timeless. While the original phrase goes increasingly obscure, the wordplay remains fresh because the obsolete part is invisible.
