A TikToker sharing her first cruise adventure has taken social media by storm with her exciting discovery.
People have advised a vacationer to “keep walking” after noticing “cute little pineapples” displayed on cruise ship doors.
In most cases, pineapple emblems and ornaments are simply decorative tributes to the tropical fruit, native to regions like West Africa and Latin America.
In pop culture, you might think of Nickelodeon’s SpongeBob SquarePants, where the titular character famously lives in a pineapple under the sea.
But when it comes to adult cruises, the herbaceous perennial takes on a whole different meaning, as one seemingly innocent TikToker discovered.
A woman named Dominique (@blogionistatravels) documented her first cruise ship experience on social media.
In one of her videos, Dominique mentioned discovering some interesting decorations adorning various cabin doors.
In the 15-second clip, which has garnered 21 million views since its September 2022 posting, the travel blogger panned down a corridor of living quarters.
On the doors, various pineapple stickers appeared to have been tacked on.
“When you’re on your maiden cruise and notice everyone’s got these adorable little pineapples on their doors.”
“After watching the video, viewers have taken to the comments to share their thoughts on the pineapple stickers.”
One TikTok user wrote: “The welcome one with the butterfly makes me think it’s a sweet old lady that thinks ppl just decorate with pineapples on cruises & want to decorate.”
“Still waiting on the name of the cruise… for a friend, of course.”
“It could be that the cruise placed them there. It’s like the international symbol of hospitality.”
“Oops, don’t go in unless you’re ready to mix things up, if you catch my drift.”
