I'm kinda irritated by all the people posting their flags without saying where they're from. There are 50 states in the USA and several more territories, ten provinces in Canada, and god knows how many other who-gives-a-fuck-if-you-don't-tell-us-who-the-fuck-you-are countries and non-countries. So... TELL US WHAT YOUR FLAG MEANS, or you're nothing but a fucking ass hat.
Thanks =) Meanwhile... I live in the USA. I'm a flag waving liberal. I currently live in Oregon (see above for the the ugly two sided flag). And I feel connected to the life and economy of what we call Cascadia. The Republic of Cascadia. These are the flags I've found proposed for our region: http://zapatopi.net/cascadia/casflagbg.gif http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...scadia.svg.png |

i was going to say it a bit more eloquently than pulp, but i guess its the message right? some of these flags i have no idea what they are or what they represent. especially the ones with the US states. the only truely universal flag is gucci's...talk about breaking through barriers |

I dunno, I'm kinda on the otherside of that 'observation'... I like trying to guess where the flags are from. Adds a dimension. :thumbsup: At any rate, I did update mine to inlcude the countries, but I didn't get into a discussion of the symbology. |
I am an American, so we'll start with that:
