I like gear icons, sometimes they don't map to exactly the semantics of what is in a menu, but if there are no other possible menu elements than I know to go to the gear icon. I've become used to the hamburger menu, but it still doesn't catch my eye (Chrome's now three dot option is even worse at this), gear looks noticeably different than the rest of the UI and so I can easily spot it for options.
