There is indeed. It’s invisible until you know it’s there and then you can’t not see it. I missed it for something like 40 years. |  |

The famous Bern bears. Unfortunately locked up in the Bear Park in Bern since the 16th Century*.
*Not the same bear, obviously**.
**Hmm, or are they the same bears***?
***Hmmm, Is the Earth flat? |  |

The FedEx logo has an arrow in the negative space. I can never not see it after learning this several years ago |  | | |

There's a hole in my bucket.
I refused to acknowledge it for years.
The moment I accepted the fact,
I got wet feet. |  |

The Rolling Stones first chart hit was written for them by Lennon and McCartney.
And one from QI: the size of the Space Shuttle was determined by the size of horses..
The launch booster rockets were delivered by rail.
Railway standard guage was based on the size of Stagecoaches, because coachbuilders built the carriages and their workshops had entrances built to size for stagecoaches to come in and out.
Stagecoaches were built to a uniform size because horse drawn waggons created ruts and if they didn't fit the ruts then the wheels would break.
Roads from the Roman period onwards were built for two carriageways- based on the width of their chariots.
The Roman chariot was derived from the Ancient Babylonian war chariot.
Babylonian war chariots size was determined by the size of horses. | | | |

Only last week I finally realised that the logo for Shell is actually a shell.
Until I realised this, I just thought that it was some sort of odd design.
I’m a man in his forties but my mind was blown with his realisation. |  | | |

Similarly, Amazon's logo has an arrow from A to Z, meaning they can get stuff anywhere and everywhere, directly.
And some people think the KFC logo is a funny man with a big head on a stick-man body waving his arms about, but those of us who are a bit older remember that the "Southern Gentleman's tie" used to be accompanied by his shirt collar.
But next time you go past a KFC, or into one, look at the back of the chairs!

Huh! I just thought the Amazon logo was a crap attempt at a smiley face.
Huh! for KFC too. I wonder if it’s worth companies spending thousands on branding if a lot of the population are oblivious to little touches like this. | |

This is almost as big a revelation as when i realised the little arrow symbol on the petrol pump light on your dashboard tells you what side your filler cap is on. |  |
