Bonus points if the flag is the wrong country for the anthem playing

My country's national anthem is just one long stupid rhetorical question that's impossible to sing. It's super embarrassing at international sporting events when it's consistently the worst one there.

At least yours isn't a boring, religious-cum-monarchical dirge like ours

Not only that, it's a racist poem slapped on top of the melody to a British drinking song.

What country are you from?

The United States of America

If you have a problem with the way Jesus authored The Star-Spangled Banner, then maybe you should move to France: La Marseillaise doesn’t allude to slavery or take pride in Americans committing treason against their leader in London.

La Marseillaise is an awesome anthem. I wish ours were 1% as cool but all we get is 5 minutes of sucking the Christian god's dick.

Let's be honest, the real French national anthem is this one, and it's great: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3BHyOhVXmE

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Should've stolen Finlandia instead since that's a lot better imo

Sick and fucking tired of the Dutch national anthem almost every weekend.
