Are pineapple rings symbolic of the circles of hell?
○ ○ ○
I make a pineapple upsidedown cake that is sinfully delicious. My daughter is visiting from out of state, and I always have one waiting to greet her when she arrives.
But I do use crushed pineapple, as opposed to the rings.
○○○
So, since I don’t want to forgo the cake for piety’s sake, let’s just say that the crushed pineapple represents defeating the forces of hell.
Sort of like the principle behind the Friday frog leg fry I worked at, at the Knights of Columbus, back in junior high.
Yeah, it’s piña colada, not ananas colada. I thought the fact that a pine cone was originally a pine apple was telling. It turns out that in those olden days, even back in roman times, they would call fruits apples, or whatever (or there was some common root to the words, which help confuse things). Can’t remember where I came across that.
I like this new Secret Order of the Pineapple, however. “Pineapple” was a slang term for a kind of hand grenade, back when the World (meaning I) Was Young….

Is two words a proper “phrase”?
And is the pineapple properly ripened? Because I really can’t abide green pineapple.

Yeah, Tao Lin. Two words does not a phrase make. Up your pineapple @$$ would work, though.

My favorite pineapple is the one dangling from the chain. “Offend my delicate sensibilities again, buster, and I’ll flog you with my pineapple chain!”

Yes. Two words is the minimum for a phrase. Most are longer. Do not doubt the inscrutable wisdom of the Virginians.

I wanted a piece of Pineapple’s ass, then I could not dole out the enlightenment to satisfy her.

Perhaps it was adding pineapple to Jell-0 pudding?

Once again, I am impressed with Ms. Teresa’s ability to exegete a trendy source for narrative art.

Not as bad as pigeon toes.
Better than sheep’s bladder.

There was quite a satisfying moment in the movie Little Nicky. Ok, it’s an Adam Sandler movie, but please hear me out.
The movie deals with hell, and the devil and his sons.
As an incidental joke, we learn that Hitler has to report daily to have a pineapple shoved up his bum. (Not an exact quote.)
So, yeah… that was a good use of the phrase.

Forgive me, Saint Teresa!
