So I needed to buy a new wallet.

I mentioned this to my mum.

She, knowing I am a big RATM fan said "You should get a Rage wallet".

I said "You are probably confused, I think RATM are the last band that would have a wallet as merchandise. It's probably a brand called 'Rage' or something"


Anyway. Turns out, this exists:

Any other examples of stupid stupid irony?

You misunderstood what they meant by 'machine'. It was actually a wallet producing piece of kit, and it has taken them 15 years to get it fixed! Now they can get back to their chosen paths of wallet design, at last. :metul:

RATM signing for fucking Sony was pretty ironic back in the day. Tom Morello is a very nice gentleman, however.

To be fair, Zach de la Rocha did once state in an interview that he understood the irony of signing for a major label, but in doing so, the audience they could get their message out to would be so many times greater than if they didn't. He saw it as a necessary evil.

Yeah, but he sees everything as evil.

Four posts! I wondered how long it would be before Alanis cropped up, and there's my answer - four posts!
