Remember that 'Total Information Awareness' logo? Reminds me of that.

Mods, feel free to attach this to a more appropriate thread - thanks.

Edit: Oh yes - Cthulhu fhtagn...

I KNEW it reminded me of something.....

How about that cheerful carey-sharey bunch from Bond?

Here's S.P.E.C.T.R.E's logo

Slightly less sinister IMO

Argh! An eight armed grey! They really do hide in full view don't they?

It would make a great button badge.

Or a forehead tattoo.

The 'Mark of the Beast'?

Now you all know how I feel every time I pass the Sherwin-Williams paint store....

 

[ramonmercado]

SWP? Hmmm.

SWP? Hmmm.

The paint is the right colour too...

Reminds me of the Der Sturmer Nazi propaganda "Jewish" octopus;

Another "evil logo". Maybe there's a better thread for this?

City of Placerville removes hangman's noose from town logo

Long proud of it's 'Hangtown' heritage, Placerville, California's city council unanimously voted to remove the hangman's noose from the city logo.

KTVU:

Some argued that it is part of the history of the town, but others said it is violent and gives the city a bad reputation, the station reported.
The council's vote was unanimous.
The decision comes amid a reconsidering of images of nooses in the context of racial injustice and the history of violence against Black people in America.
The signs and symbols of Hangtown are commonplace in Placerville, the El Dorado County seat in the western foothills of the Sierra Nevada about two hours northeast of San Francisco.

It may be that hangings and racism were common features of Sierra mining towns. Another famous gold town, Downieville, is known for hanging a pregnant woman.
