The Three Arrows were a symbol originally used by the German Sozialdemokratische Partei Deutschlands (SDP) during the interwar period, but they are now recognized as a general anti-authoritarian symbol.
The arrows stand for the different types of authoritarianism that should be opposed. Their commonly accepted meanings go as follows (from top left to bottom right):
1. Reactionaries/Royalists
2. Nazis/Fascists
3. Marxist-Leninists/Authoritarian Socialists
In the 21st century groups ranging widely from Social Democrats to Anarchists have been known to use the symbol, sometimes unified under the banner of the Iron Front or Anti-fascism/Antifa.

Get the Three Arrows mug.The greatest superhero ever. He's a total bad-ass that dresses like Robin Hood and has a mustache that puts Ned Flanders to shame. His weapon of choice is a bow and arrow. He is know to be a lady's man. I've heard rumors that he's slept with over 350 woman, and over 25 guys. That's pretty damn cool if you ask me.

An enormous amalgamation of raptor-tastic talent that quite possibly consists of robots, not humans. Broken Arrow Band guard girls tend to melt when you douse them with water. Broken Arrow Bands are not known for a short or hot temper, but let it be known that if you do anything to piss them off, they have the numbers to do anything they want to you.
"I stole a plume from a Broken Arrow Band!"
"Great job. They tipped our buses over, dumbass."
"Well, a Broken Arrow Band has the numbers to do that, you know."

Get the Junk Arrow mug.“Allow me” is a morphological usage within mid-2000s London slang. It emanated as a variation from the popular grime phrase (Allow it bruv!) This original phrase was popularised by figures such as Dizzy, Wiley, Bashy and Sway-
It briefly pushed “Leave it Outtt” as a youthspeak phrase functioning as a page-turned in conversation from a point of contention, dispute; annoyance or ridicule.
The morphological change has outlived the original phrase somewhat. Retaining the imperative mood but with a reflective quality; lazy people have used it to good effect to shirk workloads and pass over emotional imperatives from friends, family & lovers
