So I was out at a local mall this afternoon and saw one of these new "hi tech" Coke machines.

As I got closer, I saw that in addition to real money, you can also sign up for one of these "mobile wallet" apps.

I wasn't sure I read the name of the mobile wallet company correctly, so I got a little closer.

Really? On principle alone I don't think I will be signing up for this app!

They are already looking to change their name that was chosen long before ISIS came in the news as terror organization.
Don't get your panty's in a wad over it ;)

A friend of mine owns a photog studio called "Eyesis"... She's considering a name change, but it's a huge expense.

There is a big oriental rugs place near here with the name ISIS, funny (now that you mention it) they don't have commercials on TV anymore.

Get your panties in a wad. Everyone should and if you're British, please be love and get your knickers in a twist.
The mark of a true patriot is the degree of his panty wadding.

Bushtit Corporation would be worse, nobody could talk about them then. There would be nothing more to say.

Cut those Southern Cancuks some slack, they're only missing one of them. I'm sure it will turn up after the next thaw.

it's already been renamed. "soft card," or some such. i have it for a card where they pay you back $1 every time you use it ... so buy a $2 coke, but pay only $1. you know, like during the dot-com days. i predict it won't live long.

Now all you have to do is get the Ricola guy to stand on a hill and announce "E-Bol-A" a few times for the advertising.

There's a guy who traditionally plays an alpenhorn at mile 9 of the 10-miler that I do in the spring, right at the top of the last hill. It's a pretty distinctive sound...

They are already calling isis something else, Isis was/is originally a major Egyptian and it's a female deity so that would somewhat add insult to the ISIS terrorists.

So no, the name really would not bother me.
