Eh, the "bête et méchante" school lives on ...

could you explain your reference to me, I'm completely lost about what you mean and/or refer to :)

it means "stupid and nasty"

edit: why did I get downvoted? That's a literal translation, not what I think of the icons.

Well that was not exactly the thing that comes to my mind when I see the menu item "cut", but yeah, why the hell not =)

I wish I had a page where I could use these when AB testing. Think about it: Using nasty icons increased the click-through rates by 200%!

Startup inspiration ... come up with an MVP that utilizes each of these icons at least once.

It's the motto on the cover of some French humor/comics magazines. Sardonic, very iconoclastic, and definitely not safe-for-work in the USA ...

One of the best artists was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Marc_Reiser , and you can also search for the Hara-Kiri and Charlie Hebdo magazines images (NSFW, as cautioned above).

P.S. Forgot to mention also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georges_Wolinski , who seems to be still active.
