Omicron?

MerryMarigold · 15/12/2021 18:48

Or possibly a button to push ie. Now/ start
Or just more visually eye catching!

ColettesEarrings · 15/12/2021 18:48

Yep, a tediously obvious play on omicron.

What are you talking about?

Looks like a fkn Hula Hoop. Which inspires yet more confidence in the scarecrow standing behind it Angry

LefttoherownDevizes · 15/12/2021 18:51

Made me think of the team (Welsh Fire) sponsored by hula hoops in the cricket hundred this summer

The word booster was on the podiums at the press conference. One of the os was a yellow circle.

I assumed it was the earth exploding tbh.

XenoBitch · 15/12/2021 18:53

It is a Hoola Hoop. Now I want Hoola Hoops.

santasmuma · 15/12/2021 18:54

That's definitely a hula hoop

RudeRide · 15/12/2021 18:54

Intriguing. No idea OP, it's little bit odd. Maybe a secret message.

YepNameChanged · 15/12/2021 18:57

If you stare at the O for a long time it hypnotises you! Then Boris gets to control your mind..(he obviously is not in control of his own but that’s a different matter)

ArseInTheCoOpWindow · 15/12/2021 18:57

I thought it meant ‘Ow’

Like when you’ve had a jab.

herecomesthsun · 15/12/2021 19:00

Maybe it is a syringe, seen from above?

dontletthemugglesgetyoudownn · 15/12/2021 19:00

Makes me wants spaghetti hoops

IsThisIt2021 · 15/12/2021 19:01

I thought it was a weird bullseye and assumed it would have had a jab in the middle but they thought it wouldn’t be good for people with needle phobias so decided against it 😂

Yep - it's the One Ring. Now wielded by Boris et al. What could possibly go wrong...
the80sweregreat · 15/12/2021 19:05

?
Boris Johnson probably had a hand in the marketing of that 0 !
.. mind boggles ( badly )

JanglyBeads · 15/12/2021 19:07

Yeah it’ll be omicron, which was originally the name of the greek letter O. Well, still is!

XenoBitch · 15/12/2021 19:14

One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them,
One ring for Omicron, and in the darkness bind them

the80sweregreat · 15/12/2021 19:16

Gollums's ring ?
