My ex from Norway mentioned how unusual it was that so many places and people here fly our flag (USA), so I was curious to hear what it’s like for others here on the fediverse.

    I am from western MA, USA. Other than outside of government buildings, I can’t recall when the last time I saw a flag was. Occasional flag bumper stickers are a thing, but actual, flying flags? Not really.

      Literally every single overpass in MA has a flag on both sides. I think you’re just so used to them being everywhere that you tune them out. My partner is from MA, but we live in Canada now. They had never noticed until I started pointing it out. Now when we’re south of the border they realize how omnipresent they are.
