    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 "No meaning", that's thoughtful. You could fly no flag but that wouldn't be proper. Or I suppose anyone observing you might decide you're too lazy to fly a flag.

        These should all be statuses in Teams, complete with flags.

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

              "You are running into danger" looks like a threat more than just a message

                @Natasha_Jay@tech.lgbt

                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? πŸ€”

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

                    @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.

                          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:
