Upside Down Pineapple

[3Sisters]

Does anyone know what it means? CCL has now banned upside down pineapples from doors. I can understand why, but I'm surprised. CCL is a fun cruise line; just not a spicy one. 

Has anyone seen a cruise door decorated with an upside down pineapple in real life? I have!

@FJB You got it! There is more of that out there than you would think! Upside down pineapples are all around us.

Did you know about 4.5% of the population are swingers in the US? It accounts for about 15 million people. Upside down pineapples aren't the only symbol for this either. Watch out for flamingos too!

Man I am so bummed out no more upside down pineapples 🤣 just kidding.

I've never seen one on a door, however i was being swooned by a lady that was married. They where at my MDR table.  Without doubt I know what she wanted and wasn't very bashful about it. At one point she tracked me down at a night club.  I tried to gracefully dodge the advances, until I finally said, if you weren't married we would be having a different conversation. Guess she got the hint as at dinner if they showed up she would not engage any conversation or eye contact with me...🤣 

I will say I wasn't offended by the advances but more shocked and surprised about how she was on such a mission.

@euroguy That's a wild story! At least you spoke your mind about the situation. I'm thinking it's even crazier that you were at the MDR table with this couple. It's respectable to say a single person is more attractive than a married person, but to each their own! I guess this CCL couple didn't need an upside down pineapple to display their interest!

Some people have all the fun.

@FJB Maybe I should join the club, but I'm not very good at sharing.

Crew members have their stories to tell about upside down pineapples too.
