Bluetooth: hey man can I copy your homework?

Flag of Haguro, Yamagata Prefecture, Japan: sure, but change it a little so the teacher doesn't know.

(Well ackshually) Bluetooth got it from combining two Younger Futhark runes that would represent Harald Bluetooth's initials

It's a shame for me personally as the berkanan (meaning "birch") rune is my favourite and I'd like it on a pendant. But then probably a lot of people would just see it as me being weirdly into Bluetooth

The Japanese municipal flags have a whole swath that looks like they were designed by "guy who went to radical 90s logo school". Some of them are based on earlier clan symbols and are mostly fine or cool, but then you've got shit like this
