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 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.
