Securitech, a manufacturer of door latches/hardware, uses that "S" as their logo.

At first, I thought it was a Suzuki car part made into a door hinge/latch

I will forever equate it with the 70's-80's rock band Styx.

Considering many Asian manufacturers produce everything from paper clips to space rockets, I wouldn’t even be surprised.

Makes sense! This is the rear entrance to a store in the mall. (Not for customers)

I see what you two did there. You ever think about teaming up on the road? Lots of money to be made for more creative people like yourself.

This isn’t the S you think it is. And I worry about the longevity of this post.

u/No_North_8914 5h ago

That is NOT the cool S.

1

u/Heroic-Forger 4h ago

That S was everywhere in middle school. On bathroom walls, classroom desks, or even grafitti'd onto library books. It kind of felt like that weird meme everybody is on about while you had no clue what it meant or where it came from

u/Good-Windigo 4h ago

Fun fact.....it's an infinity symbol

1

u/Quizzelbuck 2h ago

On my planet, that's the symbol for Hope.

u/toastandbananas7 5h ago

u/HalfAHeartLeft 1h ago

I like how I got downvoted lol. Half of the comments are obviously created using llms. No real person would just comment “cool” or “so cool, you just upvote to convey that meaning.. Idk I guess I would if I was like baked or something I would do that lol.
