Cunt

", this is because of an odd acronym of the word that results in "C U Next Tuesday". At first the band's merchandise held the initials "SYNT", to which the band later changed to "CUNT" as what many call a controversial publicity move. Merchandise from the band has the initials "SYNT" and "CUNT" on different material.
