    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 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"?

          @Natasha_Jay I was joking when I said I'm adding them to slack, but I shared the image on my company's slack, and I think someone is going to do it.

            @Natasha_Jay

            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:

                        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?

                        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)

                            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.

                                      @Natasha_Jay why is the Skåne flag there, and why does it say no meaning?

                                        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'm amused at "No meaning". I just felt like flying a flag. 😄

                                          @Natasha_Jay cool! Found the Wikipedia article for the current list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Code_of_Signals (scroll down to single flag signals - I couldn’t figure out how to link directly to the section on mobile)

                                          My favorite: "Stop carrying out your intentions and watch for my signals." Could be handy in so many situations.
