I don’t get it

They call it an Earthican flag. I have not read into the Futurama wikis but assume the bad America politicians (like Nixon & Headless robot Agnew) progressively took over the planet. More and more show similarities become current US events.

The funny... if this stuff continues we're going to need a new USA flag.

Indeed. It's too cluttered, violating good design principles. For example, four stars would be enough. Of course, this means merging a few provinces here and there, but that's easy. Also make sure to rename them, to fulfil Glorious Taco Hair's ambitions.

Here's my proposal.

I tried to look for a generic shape pic of North America. But I guess I'm too tired right now, because my brain saw this image below and said... "it's Patrick wearing a cape riding a giant seahorse with SpongeBob on its back looking the other direction smoking a cigarette".
I need to go to bed.

Fuck. FUCK. I'm seeing it.

Ellesmere and nearby islands are Patrick's head. Bob's cig is Alaska. Baja California is the cape. That dick-shaped province in SE USA is the seahorse's snout. Quebec is the seahorse's "mane".

Oops, I should have horizontally flipped the coin-op picture. My seahorse is * huge*, its tail is Mexico and Patrick's cone tipped head is Northern-most Canada. Quebec is SpongeBob.

I like yours too! 😁

Oops it's missing Greenland.

Crap -- he's holding a Trump flag.
