I had to read your comments to get it, and I knew about Tesla using glue on that, and about got2b, just not that it used to have an umlaut. I think it's funny now, though xD So, maybe the downvotes are from people who understandably didn't get it. Maybe it was a bit too convoluted. Nice effort, though! I believe in you, you got a viral meme inside you somewhere 💪

Why the umlaut? I don't get that part, theres just about nothing German or European about anything in this image
It’s the original logo
I know the brand, but that is some deep hair gel lore
I see...
That american urge to use umlauts, without using the sound it signifies, always baffled me.
There's no umlaut in english, so it doesn't signify any sound in english words, it's merely a stylistic choice, kind of like writing a z at the end of a word instead of an s.
I disagree though, when you adopt from other languages the sounds follow. Of course designers don't feel like that, but they would be wrong.
