here's your odd thought for the day.

If one is supposed to signal distress by turning the flag upside down, what does one do when one's flag has horizontal symmetry?

I'll be pondering this one for a while. :)

Can you just turn it sideways? :)

Well, what about the countries that have both vertical and horizontal symmetry? :)

hmm, that's true... isn't there a country with a square flag? I think that one is about the epitome of flaggish symmetry.

Maybe they should fold theirs in half. ;) Or only attach one corner. Or paint it black or something.

*silly from it being exam week*
