About	This tick makes me cross... it's everywhere... a modern-day symbol of utter meaninglessness... an empty vessel... a badge without merit.

Well shot and said Patrick!

Very good contrast in this photo. The meaning is even better: Let´s trash stupid meaningless symbols like this that are only made to fool people and make profit. I haven´t got the slightest idea why some people want to buy and show off designer´s clothes. How can such a symbol give some people a sense of being special and belonging to a certain group and even make them willing to pay double the amount of money for almost the same goods just because of a brand? I heard that the one who designed this brand earned almost nothing and later on it has brought billions for the company. Crazy world and crazy people for not thinking more independently.

That's my point... it is a dollar sign mutated into a new shape... as a logo, its everpresence makes me feel ill. Thanks for your comment Joey.

Tiger Woods is paid millions of dollars each year to wear this meaningless symbol!
Nice shot but I don't think that this symbol will end up in the recycle bin anytime soon!
