To me it looks like two stick men, one has a sword to the other one, when he gets a boner.

Left is "Normally Open" (NO) right is "Normally Closed" (NC)

Edit: So NO is an open contact unless its closed (by energising a relay or operating a switch etc) and NC is a closed contact unless its opened (again, by energising a relay or operating a switch etc)

Ok, it's a brake light switch, so the 2 left pins will trigger the bulbs when the pin is depressed and presumably the other 2 pins are there to tell the ecu that you have your foot on the brake which is why it cuts the throttle

That's what I thought it was, thanks Jimmy
