"That's 'private investigator.' "

Oh please, don't bore us with another story of one of your tawdry divorce cases... < read with haughtiness and disdain >

(Joking, of course. That's awesome.)

Well, it's like a pre-1959 (British Protectorate of) Brunei flag hung upside down, but that wouldn't explain the stars. It also reminds me of unofficial US Army flags (similar color scheme https://www.united-states-flag.com/army-strong-flag-3ftx5ft-nylon.html ), but I can't find that exact one. Aloha!
