Yea, what the hell?



There's quite a few that shouldn't be on that list, but I mostly disagree with disco volante being number one. Flying saucer?? That's stupid.

I think if they made a contest with the best logo and you took some umbiased representitives the we'd be at number one.







Ironically it's in the shape of a shark. Clever!
