    Can you think of a worse company name?

    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.

    Get your panties in a wad. Everyone should and if you're British, please be love and get your knickers in a twist.

    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.

    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.
    I've accidentally swallowed some Scrabble tiles. My next crap could spell disaster.

    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.
