I want a "Bonbon" key

I bought a foreign-language POS keyboard recently, and it's put me in the mood for keycaps with silly text. I want a "Bonbon" key.
Crazy-long German words that sound like thunder are always fun too, but I'm not sure what to think of the fact that half these keys have something to do with prescriptions. My friend joked I could get rich by pressing the "print prescription" key.
Then there's "Strg", the German abbreviation on control keys. Having been exposed to too much Marxist and other rhetoric in my life, this makes me think of struggles against upper-class control.
Anyone else have silly keycaps they'd like to share? Ideas or otherwise.

How about a "bonbonbonbons" key? Or a "McFortune Cookies" key?

Now I'm hungry, kbdfr.
"Bonbonbonbons" seems rather like "banananana"; very silly indeed!

I love some German-language keys, like ROLLEN. I'm sure it makes perfect sense in German but all I can think of in English is "rollen rollen rollen (cue song here)"

I no longer have a "Nuka Cola" key. But I still have lots of "Tab".

The weirdest one I've seen so far was a "urine" key, which turned up twice in fact. There was also a "laser" key complete with LED that was pretty cool.

Why not design your own?
