In fairness, some of these logos are a little obscure. But others are very, very common, and I still whiffed on them. I think I got about 20 per cent, at first blush, and mostly those were the logotypes with just their letters and a unique colour scheme. Or Target. Target was easy.
Logo designer Graham Smith has made this an ongoing project. Check out a bunch more circle logos at his Tumblr, called Unevolved Brands, or in the Flickr set.

I am proud to say I only recognized three of them! I guess sometimes colour blindness, coupled with a bong hit, is a gift that allows one’s mind’s eye to place all such capitalist icons into their proper perspective (i.e. into the banal, derivative, generic, and irrelevant categories).

[...] Let’s say you’re not a very good capitalist consumer. Let’s say you didn’t score very well on the logo recognition test. [...]
