that flag would be great.
because instead of burning it, you'd cook it in a pizza oven and eat it.

Flags don't have a 'way around'
but the italian flag is green nearest the pole.

If you're bothered enough to be pedant
then you are bothered enough to be pedanted at.

If you don't like the heat then may I suggest adjusting the thermostat or, perhaps, wearing less layers?

the other way round*
means vice versa, the other way (of two possible ways).

A flag can be attached to a mast in several ways, but only one is correct (unless is hoisted vertically). For the italian flag, the green should be on the mast side, and not the other way round.


_{*which is as correct as around, or about}

Are you agreeing with me?

Upside down flag?

Done.
I thought of and rejected Denmark because of it:

But I would eat it. And probably you.
