Thoughts About Stuff is really just thoughts about nothing. We just didn't want to call it Thoughts About Nothing because then no one would show up.

Thoughts About the Flags of the World

Remember how hard it was to color the American flag in school? 50 stars is a lot of stars.

And you sat there in social studies class wishing you went to school in Indonesia instead, because their flag is so easy! It’s only two colors, and if your paper’s white, then you’re halfway done.

Or maybe Poland. Drawing Poland’s flag would’ve been just as easy.

Going to school in Monaco would’ve been just as nice as Indonesia. Maybe nicer!

But the dream place to go to school, if only so your flag-drawing assignment wasn’t so hard? Libya, of course!

But as you finish coloring the easy portion of the American flag and move on to the blue-square, white-star portion, you have to start thanking your 50, white, lucky stars that you don’t live in South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.

Or Bhutan, who might or might not have been inspired by Dragon Ball Z.

I can’t imagine any kid getting an A on that assignment in school. Alternatively, I can believe every kid who goes to school on the South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands are really good artists.

To our international readers, your flag is perfect the way it is. Especially you, people of Saint Pierre and Miquelon!
