Using a secret signal by mistake at first sounds cool--like, what if you accidentally gave someone the secret signal of the Illuminati and were suddenly swept up into a world of conspiracy theories and various other cool things that you weren't prepared for?

But then it happens in reality and it's not the secret signal for the illuminati at all. It's a signal for ethically non-monogamous couples looking for hook-ups. Aka: Swingers.

Linda and her husband were on an innocent vacation, and began noticing people behaving a little ~extra~ interested in them. Unbeknownst to them, it was due their matching pineapple bathing suits and what the people on-site thought the couple were trying to tell them.

Apparently, the pineapple is used as a symbol of swinging. A pineapple placed upon the mailbox or front porch of any house is supposed to signify that a Swinging Party is happening.

And also pineapple clothing is meant to signify that the couple is into swinging.

Ooops.

The clip has gone viral, as most people's minds are blown by the reveal that their cute pineapple accessories may signify something to others that they completely didn't intend.

The pineapple can have a few meanings to those in the swinging lifestyle.

Aside from the pineapple on the porch, an upside-down pineapple can mean the person is in search of a swinger party. A pineapple left on your front door in the middle of the night signifies an invitation to join an ongoing party.

And according to Eye Spy Investigations, pineapple lovers should also be cautious of the following items if they do not want to lead people into thinking they lead a swinger lifestyle:

"A man or woman wearing a red ball cap; White landscaping rocks in someone's front yard; Wearing a thumb ring; Wearing a toe ring; Switching the wedding ring to the right hand; Yin-Yang tattoo; Garden Gnomes; Pink Flamingo; Metal Star on the front of the house."

So your boring old neighbor with her lawn gnomes might be having a great time behind closed doors.

Susan Collins Dragged After GOP PAC Boosts Her Campaign In The Wrong Portland

On July 4, 1786, the city of Portland, Maine, was officially founded with its newly-minted name. Almost 60 years later in 1845, Maineiac Francis Pettygrove won a coin toss against Asa Lovejoy and named their soon-to-be incorporated city in Oregon Portland after the largest city in his home state of Maine.

Since then, Portland, Oregon, has swelled to a city of approximately 675,000 people while its namesake boasts a population of just 70,000. In 2026, when people hear Portland, they think of Oregon instead of the original city in Maine.

CNN Just Visited A Struggling MAGA Store—And It Spells Bad News For Trump

CNN correspondent Elle Reeve returned to Whitey Taylor's Trump Town USA in Boones Mill, Virginia, for the first time since visiting in 2023, and her segment shows that business for the Donald Trump-themed shop has collapsed as more MAGA followers break away from the president.

Reeve, in a segment for Anderson Cooper 360, reported that "things aren't what they used to be" for the store. She spoke with Taylor, who revealed that the store, which used to make $12,000 to $15,000 in sales per day now only makes between $1,500 - $2,000 per day. On occasion, Taylor will hit $3,000 in sales if he's lucky.

According to Merriam-Webster, socialism broadly refers to economic and political systems centered on collective or government ownership and control of the means of production.

Not exactly a concept requiring a Ph.D. to explain. One would think Vice President JD Vance, a Yale Law School graduate whose party practically uses the word as punctuation, could manage a working definition.
