This is waaaay better:
Hairy legs and arms = YUCK.

That's cool and all, and it's highly likely that the Dutch flag inspired many other tri-color flags due to their colonial influence, but the US flag is not color inspired. It's an adaptation of the British flag.

if your flag is red white and blue englerland owns you lol

Union Jack needs some anti aliasing though
He was replying to this:
you seem to think the dutch and the english are a different bunch of people
i take it you mean dutch
The colours of the US flag were taken from the Union Flag. It's an adaptation.
if your flag is red white and blue englerland owns you lol
the dutch are like englands little brother, mischievous scamps that enjoy being arse holes far too much.
Similar piratical and grim origins but just never quite made it to the really big leagues of history, if only they'd aspired to something more than acquiring and sitting on filthy lucre. Like the scots, the best they could do was trade crowns and sail in englands wake.
Wierd? For not liking body hair on women? Lol.Hair grows on womens bodies. Deal with it.
Do you expect them to keep every single hair off of them just to please your weird ass?
Tell me more.You know that's the same for every woman in the world right
They even have hair on their face
The new sharp knees. Fuzz on a woman. Better wax all that shit.
No, I know that. I also know that the Union Jack is a fusion of English, Scottish and Irish flags. But what are the origins of the colors?

...which was a response to my post. I was clarifying the origin.
is incorrectif your flag is red white and blue englerland owns you lol
Yes the origin of the US flag.
That other guy said that if you have red/white/blue in your flag, it must come from the British flag. Kabouter simply stated that that is not the case with the Dutch flag. The Dutch Flag is older than the English Flag so the statement is incorrect
I don't think Kabouter meant that the US flag is derived from the Dutch flag, simply that the Dutch flag isn't derived from the British one.
Respect for anyone whose favorite was Ginger Spice.
+1 for the british flag.
Btw, is there a reason why the US flag got 13 stripes?
why does it invalidate what i said?
just because one flag predates the other
just got to know history of the bank of england and all becomes clear
maybe i should have said..the bank of england owns you
It invalidates what you said because you are making a connection between the colors of the US flag and the fact it used to be owned by England. You suggest the colors are Red/White/Blue BECAUSE the US was owned by England (which could be true) but after that you state that all countries with said colors were owned by England.
By that logic Holland was owned by England, and because of that they 'used your flag colors'.
However we already had that flag before England even had the flag. So how can our colors come from being owned by England?
I couldn't get over the staggering popularity of Vespas with Union Flags on them in China.
It's not the like Vespa is even British, so I'm not sure what that's about..
still dont get how it invalidates what i said
i aint talking past tense here

The thing is the US flag isn't seen that way outside of the US.The US flag represents an ideal for the common human. A pursuit of independence and democracy. The escape from the shackles that were European monarchies and the Papacy.
The British flag represents the bridging of nations. The pursuit of colonialism and, despite the small homeland, becoming the dominant nation during the age of discovery.
Both have their negatives that I'm sure others will recite with ease.
Your face is a petty argument.This thread doesn't have enough petty arguments.
