More horrible flags from the Philippines:

San Isidro, Abra. This would have been better if tit emphasized more on the mountains and the plane while removing the seal and the text.

Carried by PNP: https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=1926767587546396&set=pcb.1926768104213011

Libtertad, Antique. This has NATO vibes on this flag. It would have bee better if it emphasized on the fish and the sun while removing the seal and the text.

The flag of the town of Chapmanville, West Virginia.

Once more, MAY THE RATS EAT YOUR EYES! This one is a worthy challenger to the flag of Neuva Montana, Buenavista, Bohol.

And then there is the flag of the municipality Land van Cuijk (North Brabant, the Netherlands):

To be entirely honest, as long as it isn't on a flagpole it is quite identifiable.

Though the question is why did the just confine the design to only the canton?

Well I don't have issues with its identifiable characteristics. But apparently there is a municipality with a similar design as logo (Hengelo).

You would think it's because they didn't just want a big coat of arms as a flag. The currect coat of arms however looks like this:

US States' Worst Flags Ever

You thought the current flags were bad, didn't you?

I didn't know Alabama had this flag in 1861.

Terrible variations of the Gadsden flag.

That first one is really odd. The others I can see the idea behind even if it looks bad, but why add a second snake? It kind of looks like they’re fighting, and shouldn’t it be “Don’t tread on us” at that point?

There was a joke that adding two snakes also made it look like a uterus. It's hard to unsee it.

City flags are abominations

 

[Gillan1220]

As a resident of Mandaue City here in Cebu, Philippines, I didn't even know the city and it's barangays (neighborhood sub-units) have their own flags. As usual, it utilized lazy designs by putting a seal on a white or colored field.

Flag of Mandaue City is on the right. Uses a white field with the city seal on the center.

Example of a sub-unit flag:
Flag of Barangay Cabangcalan, Mandaue City, Cebu, Philippines. (sorry guys, the photo won't embed).

Nonetheless, I am amazed that city I live in has a flag and flags for its sub-units.

Have to admit there's something a bit... elegant about a flag that can be reproduced in Plain Text on a blank sheet of paper... just type "{ ]" at the top right margin, press Print

The Philippines is the vexillological "gift" that just keeps on giving

Just like it's "stepfather", the United States. Guess it runs in the family? 🤔 🤔
Meanwhile, Spain actually has some good province flags.

Add a few more snakes, and it's a mating ball!

The "seal on a bedsheet" designs were one thing you guys really didn't need to emulate
At least some of the more... risible designs are somewhat creative
