I had a anti violence liberal comercial arts instructor that was critiqueing one of my designs with an arrow thru it. He kept asking " Why does the typeset have a arrow thru it? " I kept answering and answering till I got his point, and then when He asked again for the fifth time, ( all this infront of the class) I turned to him and said..." You'r right.... I should not have put an arrow thru it to draw attention to the word. I should have put a FLOWER...!" and I let it hang there as the stunned silence of the class waited... He Said " we will talk about this after class.... By the way, I got a B+ on that project after I informed him that I was not going to take on his political leanings.... I was 17 then It was March 1990
... one year later I was Just getting out of Marine corps boot camp, and drawing some badass tatoos for my brothers.
Keep up the good work kid.
