Explaining a Fireland tweet.
Coworker: I dont get it.... your note.... rage against the machine at walmart.....
Me: Because Rage Against The Machine is a vehemently political band, and are very anti-capitalism, therefore their song being played in a Wal-Mart would be ironic, and therefore humorous.
Explaining the joke makes it less funny.
Coworker: ha ha.... okay.
because walmart isn't political about the things they do?
Me: Wal-mart is a global franchise.
Regardless of their politics, they are an icon of capitalism.
Coworker: gothca.. thank you for making feel dumb, but learn something at the same time.
Me: There are no stupid questions, just overly condescending answers.
