The Beautiful Islands of San Serriffe (2016)

Notice in the advertisement where it says "Costain is Changing the Face of San Serriffe", what they are actually adding is a serif, to both cases.

Donald Knuth offshores there.

The flong riots.. how well I recall this and my mother's hilarious laughter. I had to have much of the jokes explained to me.

Loved this bit.<p>&quot;the islands will accelerate at first gently and then more rapidly as they approach Sri Lanka. Simple calculations suggest that the island group will hit the coast of Sri Lanka at a velocity of 940 km an hour on January 3, 2011.&quot;

Hopefully their beaches are known for more than just their comic sands...

In my desire to have obscure flags of real and imaginary places as laptop stickers and backpack patches ... the flag of San Serriffe calls to me.

Strangely, I have a feeling of <i>deja vu</i>, hearing of <i>San Seriffe</i>.
