I have a bone to pik with you.

Just thought of the Teledyne Waterpik brand. What did they ever do with that in Denmark? According to this FB post:

Waterpik uses another name in Denmark. "Pik" is the common Danish word for male genitals. Most Danes can easily translate "water" to the danish word "vand". And "vandpik" is a term for the morning erection. "And you put that thing in your mouth?!?!"
