Walt Disney Classics 1992 & 1988
Walt Disney Home Video 1986 (it doesn't scare me anymore)

The Bullseye Barbeque Sauce logo. I used to be scared that it would come alive and attack me when I least expected it. :(

I think JimmyNeurtonRules is talking about those logos at the beginning at end of TV shows and movies. I used to be scared of the THX trailer.

Good 'ol Loafy!

But why not let it take a cue from the fast-food, soft drink, and bad sports team industries and combat sluggish sales and decades of losing with a slick logo redesign?

First you squish it, skew it, and turn it all around!
Squish it, skew it, and turn it all around!

Then we need to make it fast and slick and shiny like Flo Jo in a tuxedo!
Uh! Flo Jo with da tux-eee-do!

Now it's time to play colour wheel roulette! And finally, dip it in molten plexiglass for that children-under-3-are-sure-to-choke-on-it goodness!

Oh, almost forgot the fangs.

That's enough loaf. In actuality I don't think I've ever been properly scared by a logo. I have seen some pretty bad ones, though.

Must be Cocola, use to contain a little cocaine before the drug administration got involved.

Are You a Christian?

Pro Abortion

Abortion is Murder

Freemasonry sort of freaks me
out with all the conspiracy theories
that seem to be attributed to it,
although my grandfather and
great grandfather were Mason's

Never saw that one before. I must be looking at the wrong conspiracy sites ...

Actually that's Cocaine, it's a brand of energy drink. Contains no coke in it, it's just a name used as a gimmick to make people and even kids to buy it. It's f*****g BS.

Trust me, I've done research on energy drinks. I prefer Monster myself.
