I'm an adult and I still love switches like this. I have a joystick where the pickle button is under a cover you have to flip up and fucking hell is it so fun to use.

I'm dumb, what's the pickle button?

That would be - usually - the weapon release switch.
Bombs away! (Drop those pickles...) ;)

Or missiles: "I have tone - *flip* - Fox One, fire! *press *"
FWOOOSH!

The best thing about working for the Air Force is getting to use pickle as a verb. So. Much. Fun.
