I thought that was a necktie on the knob.
Yeah, but we’re talking about the President of the United States here, Leader of The Free World. A special fucking flag would be way classier.
Let’s not just put the blame on you Kentuckians.
Here’s my ranking –
A. High fives! go to – Maryland (love that traditional heraldry!), South Carolina, Tennessee, Ohio, Indiana, New Mexico (very iconic!), Alaska
B. A for effort (but major flaw in execution) goes to – California (the bear design is not simple enough for a flag, and flags don’t need captions), Arizona (nice try, but it’s just fugly), Hawaii (almost fugly), Arkansas (fugly)
C. No creativity at all, but at least it’s not a seal goes to – North Carolina, Mississippi, Texas, Colorado, Alabama
D. Okay, at least you added something to the background or altered the seal to make it more suitable for a flag – Rhode Island, Missouri, Florida, West Virginia, Wyoming, Delaware, Georgia
D-minus. Okay, it’s a seal, but at least you put in the effort to choose a color other than blue – Illinois, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Washington
F. State seal (or what looks like one) on a blue field. You suck. – New Hampshire, Virginia, New York, Vermont, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Utah, Oklahoma, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Oregon
F-minus. Mississippi, because of the Confederate flag. Otherwise you’d have gotten a “C.”
Well, how about this one? The secondary meaning is “Keep clear of me; I am engaged in pair trawling.”
If you can get close enough to see his knob, you don’t need no fuckin’ flag.
How about a tie with the Presidential Seal on it, then? Or maybe one with the sillouttes of JFK and Bill Clinton on it?
I favor something simpler: a field of blue with a splash of white.
Once again, let me repeat that New York’s flag is a direct middle finger to the British. The state seal is a copy of the flag, not vice versa.
That’s really irrelevant, so far as I’m concerned. Fine-lined, detailed images like that are simply inappropriate for flags. As a flag, it sucks.
And, I might add, if Wyoming had left off the seal, it would have gotten at least a B. The bison silhouette is distinctive.
Louisiana’s flag looks like it should appear next to the words “Draw Me!” on a matchbook cover.
BTW, awesome whoosh Liberal.
Oh, as a flag, it sucks, but at least it has a distinctive meaning behind it. And apparently, it was good enough to work back when regimental flags meant something. (eg, needed to be recognizable.)
Ugliness with a pedigree!
Hey! You graded us twice !! :dubious:
Grade early, grade often.
That just shows you I meant what I said.
Also, Oregon’s reverse gets a “B.” The beaver is distinctive, but it’s badly rendered.
Yeah, but beaver fat tastes terrible anyway.
