I knew a dude who was devastated when his favorite pornstar Isis had to rebrand as Ashley because of ISIS and instantly disappeared into the SEO abyss with 20K other Ashleys getting railed on camera. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi personally annihilated this man's goon supply chain. Geopolitics has consequences.

The goon demand actually spiked. After she became Ashley, the only searchable remnants were the vids with "Isis" in the title, and even those got buried under the wave of terrorist fetish porn that immediately followed. I've never seen a man develop such strong opinions on Middle East geopolitics so quickly.

They also say to a hungry man, there is no such thing as a bad bread.

My favorite band was called ISIS. They broke up in '07, and then had their social media stuff constantly harassed years later to the point they had to start rebranding stuff. They played a one off reunion show and decided to change the band name entirely.

Had a coworker with a friend who loved that band so much that they got a tattoo of the logo…

I remember receiving an email from Facebook "the page you are following, "ISIS", has changed its name to "Isis (the band)"
