The NXE
I got home last night before my family so I powered up the Xbox 360 to run through the update to kill the time before they got home. I was on the "choose an avatar as a starting point" screen when my wife came in the door. My wife had absolutely zero knowledge about the NXE update before seeing it on the TV.
HER: Hey, what happened to our Mii's? They're all different now.
ME: Uh, this isn't our Wii. It's the 360. Notice the crisp HD picture.
HER: Really? Whatever. Those look an awful lot like Miis.
ME: Yes, they do kind of.
HER: Why are they trying to copy the Wii?
ME: I don't know. They want what everyone else has I guess. [I proceed to choose my starter avatar]
HER: You picked a chick.
ME: No way. That's totally a dude. He's got camouflage pants on. And a baseball hat.
HER: It's a chick. Look at the available hairstyles. Those are female hairstyles.
ME: [Looks closer at TV. Realizes she's right.] Ah man. I could've have sworn that was a dude. [Hit's 'B' button a couple of times]
