Sometimes only one word will do. Kak is everyday Flemish, literally 'poo', and it's what people say when something's gone badly wrong. With a full stop, because there's nothing more to add.

What it says

Kak. in thick cobalt blue letters on a blue-green tile.

Who it's for

• a Flemish friend having a terrible day
• a Dutch-speaking colleague after a pointless meeting
• anyone who likes dark humour and Dutch swear words

Good to know

• Ceramic tile of about 10 x 10 cm
• Brand: Yett
• Stand sold separately: wood or black for one tile, a duo stand for two, or the gold stand with a little flower
