Be Amazed at the following 10 symbols! Crowns – It’s a symbol of power, dominion, and just generally being the top guy within a group. The Witch’s Broom – Whenever you think of witches, it’s more than likely you’re imagining some green woman with a pointy hat who rides through the night on a flying broom. Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down – Having your thumb up or down is the universal symbol for something that is good or bad, respectively. The Traditional Ninja Costume – Whenever you make a list of the coolest warriors in the history of mankind, it’s hard to think of one not containing the Japanese ninja. The Griffin Symbol – I’m going to assume you know what a griffin is. But in case you don’t know, it’s a creature with a lion’s body and an eagle’s head that has been around for thousands of years. The Joker card – In most games involving playing cards, the case is either the Joker card is not used at all or it’s used as a wild card – meaning it can take on any number and suit. The Period – Dots at the end of sentences mean one thing: the end. The Communist Red Star – Like the Communist Hammer and Sickle we talked about in the previous video we made, another equally iconic Communist symbol is the Red Star. Salute – how did these hateful sacks of sauerkraut come up with it? The Symbols on the Playstation Controller – Square, circle, triangle, cross: these four shapes have become synonymous with gaming, particularly Sony’s Playstation console line.
