The World Needs More American Flag Tongues

British Comedienne: check

Learn English poster in a Beijing train station: check

ACLU ad: check 

Getty Image: check

Rolling Stones temporary tattoo: check

"We global."

- American Flag Tongues

P.S. They're all women! Except for maybe the Rolling Stones one, but that's probably a woman too, because women are always using their tongues

Bonus Trivia: Which of these images was the very first American Flag Tongue? The answer is the Chinese Learn English poster. Apparently it's been around for 10 years and the featured woman is like Beijing's version of this chick in New York. The Stones tattoo doesn't count because they put everything on their tongues.

well hello there.

i just so happened to be in Paris a few weeks ago and saw an unusual number of american flags on tongues. it all added up to the 'wall street school of language (or english). so it was strange to come home and find heymister doing a spot on american flag tongues.

coincidence?

i think not.
