Symbols you are curiously attached to

[Myndnix]

Princess Daisy?

Heh, yeah. My ex had this really close friend by that name, and...well I can't divulge what happened, but she started associating the character with her, as a way of coping. For some reason it's still important to me, even though I haven't even spoken to said ex since August.

Funnily enough, the numbers 2 and 27, they're lucky numbers to me.

Also, the ouroboros, flamel snake of fullmetal alchemist, and the triforce from LoZ.
And if it counts, I suppose dragons? I collect anything I can with a dragon on it.

 

[unindexedsearchengine]

the earth symbol from stargate. it looks so... serene

 

[KingsGambit_v1legacy]

I quite like the Ouroboros [https://www.google.com/search?q=ouroboros&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GBfficial&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=m9e_ULiSI5Sk0AXnsYCoCw&biw=1920&bih=886&sei=pte_ULPFE5KT0QXLz4HQCQ], no particular reason. I always imagine this when Jordan writes about the Aes Sedais' rings.

Pretty much all Japanese Kanji. I've learned quite a bit of japanese and I enjoy doodling them in my notebooks

 

[dando300]

Spoiler

Was there ever any doubt?
I am genuinely surprised this has not already been posted 10 times.

 

[Lunar Templar]

The Asmodian emblem from Aion.

donno why I just like it, and most my other choices have been taken already

[shadyh8er]

Spoiler: I love the Watchmen smiley. It is iconic and well thought out on Alan Moore's part. For such a simple symbol, a smiley face with a drop of blood, it has a complex meaning. I even have the badge!

It appears I've been ninja'd. But yes, I love this one. A constant reminder that the doomsday clock is set five minutes until midnight.

Destruction....by nuclear....WAR!

 

[mattttherman3]

That would be the Green Lantern insignia for me, because my willpower..fluctuates. I wish I could be Hal Jordan

 

[THE_JOKE_KING33]

Spoiler: Omnipotence

Spoiler: Infinity

 

[Rickolas Walrus]

As a bassist...

...Can there be anymore important symbol?

Bassists unite!

OT: I always liked the alchemic symbol for earth. I love how simple it is mostly, I've wanted to have it tattooed on the back of my hand for years

Spoiler

Though I'm also partial to the earthbending symbol from ATLA and LOK

Spoiler

 

[SwimmingRock]

The Ravens Nest symbol from Armored Core. I will and have always been...

A. Raven.

Amen, brother. Lynxes are bullshit. The Last Raven was also the last good Armored Core game, far as I'm concerned.

OT: I'm rubbish at embedding images and whatnot, but the Grinder symbol for me. Not to be confused with... Oh, good Lord. Googled Grinder to attempt to find an image and it's weed grinders and gay iPhone apps far as the eye can see. One sec.

http://doktorsleepless.com/index.php/Image:Grinder_Symbol_II.jpg

That's the one. Doktor Sleepless is amazing. Hence my avatar.

Oh, crosses too. Wore them for years even though I've never been religious. Pretty ones, though. Not boring crosses.

 

[Glaber]

From Dishonored, I really liked it since I first saw it (to the point I have it as my profile picture).

 

[Slenn]

Snip

My electrodynamics teacher calls it "Nabla" and so does Wikipedia, but I've never heard it called "Atled". I knew it was an upside-down capital delta, but "Nabla" was the name of the symbol that stuck with me.

Actually, speaking of capital Psi, you know what other capital letter I admire in quantum?

Spoiler

Chi, the symbol of the all important property of particle physics, Spin.

 

[Slenn]

EDIT: Actually, Chi may only be used in Griffiths and with the three quantum mechanics teachers I've had, but damn I love it.

 

[Daverson]

I quite like cogwheels, in case you hadn't noticed =p

The flash and circle is pretty nice too, but those damn fascists ninja'd it >=\

 

[Ljs1121]

I have a thing for the fleur-de-lis. Not sure why, but I find it amazingly pretty.

Spoiler: Yay for French stuff

Also, I quite like stylized versions of the letters L, J, and S (L the most, though), as well as the numbers 1 and 2. Someday I want to make an extremely pretty picture of my username using ornately designed letters and numbers.

 

[TheDoctor455]

I've always loved the various glowing blue Forerunner symbols in Halo.

Guess I'm just a sucker for bright lights.

You must be fun with bug zappers.

Anyway...

I have something of an attachment to the Neverwinter Eye:

[Benpasko]

I have a number. I just kinda came up with it one day for no reason and it stuck to the point where I'd put it instead of my name on assignments in school and they'd know who it was.

My electrodynamics teacher calls it "Nabla" and so does Wikipedia, but I've never heard it called "Atled". I knew it was an upside-down capital delta, but "Nabla" was the name of the symbol that stuck with me.

Atled and anádelta are the other (more logical) names of the symbol.

"anádelta"(ανάδελτ&#945 literally means "upside-down delta".
"Atled" is because the names of upside-down Greek letters are their names spelled backwards (e.g. an upside-down Omega is an Agemo). Most of the reversed spellings are almost completely unused because the upside-down versions of those symbols have no existing purposes in science or mathematics, but they do go from Ahpla to Agemo.
