I would really like a “b” but I suspect the ascender might land me in the hospital.

bb beat me to it. i was wondering what letters they painfully tried before settling on the “a”. :P
although, a “b” might be comfortable if you used the ascender to lean your back on.

This is great. An “s” would work too.

it may be a lower case helvetica “a” for the reason that it is one of the most distinguishable characters. also i personally think it is the most beautiful.
