I'm pretty sure that it's not MegaBloks; the minifig looks like TYCO to me.

Well, he was engaging in a little artistic license, I think, referring to
the dreaded nuclear "button" of the 80's and thereby alluding to the differing
role of computers then and now. I expect, whatever faults he may have, he
knows that they're three different keys.
On the other hand, maybe he refers to the Reset button on the front of his
CPU as the CONTROL-ALT-DELETE button...
All in fun,
