Looking for a good 3 letter word to put on a wall

OrestusOrestus Registered User regular
edited February 2010 in Help / Advice Forum
My wife has a wallspace in our house she is obsessing over and she has suggested buying some framed letters that would spell out a word....the problem is we haven't come up w/ anything great, the biggest reason being we only have room for 3 letters. Any suggestions on a 3 letter word to put up in that way. English or foreign is fine.

Being almost done w/ World of Goo on Steam I tried suggesting "Goo" already but she didn't go for it :lol:

    but you're probably okay with acronyms and the like, too right?

    there's a LOT of acronyms

    I'd suggest, if you only have room for three letters, you find something else to do with the wallspace.

    How about "Our"? It symbolizes your ownership of the house or something.

    First thought: 3 Chinese characters would cram more meaning into the limited space, as well as provide an interesting conversation piece.

    Second thought: What room is it in, anyway? That might make a difference.

    They also make you a silly goose if you're not chinese. This rule has made me much more polite I assure you.

    I just keep thinking of the fairy in ocarina constantly going "HEY!" and think that would be funny.

    Personally, I think you should put "POD" on the wall and let people wonder what it means
