    These flags would be so useful in daily life when you're having one of those days and want to let people know.

    'I am dragging my anchor.' 'I require a tug.' 'Stop carrying out your intentions.'

    And my personal favourite 🚩: 'I am on fire; keep clear of me.'

      @tehstu
      I wonder if it's a reply that your flags were incomprehensible ie "No meaning"?

          Well they date back to the days of cannons and sailing ships, above all flammable ones with months at sea.
          Semaphore required proximity and there was a risk of unintended consequences ...

          I invite you to finish the gag yourself as I can't decide on the punchline; or at least a clean one.

            they are still valid on the sea and tidal waterways (although nowadays folk use VHF radio and other communications methods).

            P (Papa) is also known as "Blue Peter", which inspired the BBC kids TV programme (which is still running, but seems to be operating from the lifeboats rather than the full size vessel)

            I wonder if they still teach these to sailors? 🤔

            Guess it might be useful if your radio was broken and you didn't have any other signalling method?

              @Natasha_Jay They can be combined to extend the meaning. Three letter codes starting from M are medical related. If you see someone carrying MPP, rather avoid unless you're a doctor. But even in this case avoid sexual intercourse 😅

                @Natasha_Jay I'm guessing Russia should change their naval ensign to "I am dragging my anchor"?

                      The #ttrpg game world of Tekumel has these in the Tsolyani culture:

                      "Nothing will demonstrate the Tsolyani love for visual displays of social intangibles as well as a description of the Meshqu plaques.

                      [...]

                      are hung upon a hook outside their owner's door . Different colours and designs indicate the person's moods and willingness to receive visitors, and guests are expected to respond accordingly:

                                  they still do, for exactly that reason (a 12/24v battery failure could also knock out the main VHF set, and/or the handheld may not have charged batteries or even be present)

                                      @Natasha_Jay this is so cool, do you have a photo of all the flags?

                                      I don't and it bugs me. Image searches haven't returned the original book, which I'd love to know too. I assume these changed over time.

                                        These flags would be so useful in daily life when you're having one of those days and want to let people know.

                                        'I am dragging my anchor.' 'I require a tug.' 'Stop carrying out your intentions.'

                                        And my personal favourite 🚩: 'I am on fire; keep clear of me.'

                                        @Natasha_Jay "I am maneuvering with difficulty" has to be one of my favorites

                                          @Natasha_Jay I like "No Meaning" too. Want to fly a flag but have no interesting conditions.
