WHAT could you possibly have against the pineapple?

I think- after looking at the thing (I just dug out the flag box- and HORROR of HORRORS my cat flag is much more disturbing than I remembered it) - is not the pineapple a Hawaiian symbol of friendship or something? It turns out all FOUR pineapple flags (in their original wrappers) all say merely "Welcome" on them. They are embroidered and have quite the flair of the Islands- but are, of course, made in China.

I am not sure "Welcome" is the kind of thing I want outside my house. Door to door salesmen are not welcome, and neither are those boys that come around selling magazine subscriptions and coupon books for soccer, and I don't want my neighbors, who are awful, dropping by, so I think "Welcome" might actually be a little dangerous- perhaps you think so too?
