4. Well we got the glorious victory
So next comes Eurasia...I wish I was half kidding.

And yes I am glad we are out of east asia. And troops are coming home... By the way.

I just gotten a tad cynical anymore.

As to them trolls that's one reason.

8. How could a troll be so unpatriotic as to 'unrec' the American Flag?
Why do they hate 99 percent of the human beings?

What's up with that?

29. Well some people hate themselves so it makes sense they hate others like themselves
Edited on Sat Oct-22-11 10:17 PM by lunatica
equally. Being part of the 99% makes their hatred of themselves boil over.

37. Ironically
I found this post by peeking at a site populated by some of the most hateful, bigoted, and stupid trolls you'd ever dream of encountering. I like to drop in over there periodically to laugh at them.

Wish I could rec it again.

10. Because I am an awesomely patriotic entity
I am kicking this thread again.

Also, because I recognize the Magnificiently Hugh Tremendous SuperSockITtoME Power in this graphic meme.

If you agree, keep this thread -- and 99 Flag image -- kicked and shared.

28. You have to wonder how it would look with 99 stars
Wonder if anyone will add more stars...?

32. three alternating rows of 17 and 16 stars, maybe
Although that might be too rectangular for the canton. It would be six rows high and 17 stars wide.


Um...

maybe 9 rows of 11 stars each. Simple. But it might be too square for the canton.

You could do 4 rows of 15 inter-spaced with 3 rows of 13. That's 7 rows high and 15 rows wide. Although they don't seem to like having the rows staggered by more than 1 star per row.

:shrug:

20. Please forgive my ignorance, but what is the significance of the stars?
I'm too lazy to count them, maybe that would clue me in, but I am stumped!

25. Thanks! It's an interesting optical illusion in a way, thought there were much fewer!
But I kept losing count as I was counting them!

Very wonderful flag. :)

27. At first I thought so, too.
Edited on Sat Oct-22-11 09:51 PM by Iggo
I'm so used to there being thirteen when they're in a circle that I probably subconsciously decided there must be fewer than fifty.

30. I wish we had a world flag to put it on
Maybe a world flag would be all the country flags included into one flag, with something like 99% in a corner or in the middle.

It would make a nice tee-shirt, too. (When my son comes 'round here this week, I'm going to ask him to make me one.)
