Flag semaphore: the original texting app but with way more arm workouts. Imagine trying to send 'LOL' by flailing flags around while your shipmates squint from a mile away, wondering if you’re signalling 'laughter' or 'land ho!' It’s a fine art of precision, rhythm, and praying the wind doesn’t steal your flags mid-message. And let’s be honest—how many of us would accidentally semaphore 'SOS' while trying to order lunch? But hey, it’s still faster than waiting for the Wi-Fi at sea, and we can help you master it without looking like you’re auditioning for a flag-spinning team.
