Meaning

Patterned

Mnemonic

Criminal writing is always patterned. That is to say, there is a pattern to it, lots of ARGS and GONNA STAB YAs, but it's also patterned beautifully, with a collage of cut out letters.

Can you see the patterns in the writing this criminal did? It looks like a quilt or some plaid. It's almost beautiful, the way those death threats are arranged!

Mnemonic

As you look closer at the patterned writing you realize that it forms the shape of an eagle (い). The most American bird of them all! Maybe this guy isn't a criminal after all!

Picture an eagle patterned out of cut out letters. What the words say isn't important (though it is asking for a ransom on your grandma), but the underlying image is gorgeous.
