Can't speak for Spike but Chinese take-away menu's can provide some inspiration - not just for the flags :wink:

Alternatively use Google Images and search for something Chinese (dynasty names probably work) and you should get something as well.

Or just know Chinese. nbd :)

Most of the flags bear single characters from my Chinese name (Mo Mai Kai), China (Zhong Guo), etc. I probably sprinkled in some foul language but don't recall of hand.

(edit) I note that some of the flags in these images have some random symbols that are not actual Chinese characters. Anything with a curve or circular line is not an actual Chinese character.

Some good ones:

妓女 (prostitute)

大便 (shit)

婊子 (whore)

You get the idea . . .

. . . analogous to the difference between roast beef and meat loaf.
