This LNT Home Pineapple Pillow makes a great conversation piece for use with any décor.

andrew: “honey, can you pass me my plapple?” response:
andrew: “get your own” or rather “get your own plapple”
kara: plapple should be the new word for the confused noise one makes when confronted with a questionable design choice
andrew: i like your idea
andrew: slight head-cocking should accompany
andrew: plapple?
kara: she has plastic flamingoes in her yard! oh man, talk about a plapple!
kara: straight woman: what do you think of this zebra print hat with a REAL zebra head on the top? isn’t it SO lion king mid 90s?
kara: gay male friend: oh HONEY no…plapple city! [insert stereotypical loose-wristed hand flip here]
andrew: wow lol plapple city
andrew: like circuit city but with more plapple

andrew: “plapple.com” is available.
For whatever reason, it makes me think of a combination of “Platypus” and “Snapple.” Like, maybe a new spokes-animal for Snapple could be a big, friendly Platypus who shows up where folks are thirsty and hands out Snapple! And also, that’s the only word he says, over and over again… “Plapple!! Plapple!! Plapple!!” Okay, maybe I got part of that idea from watching the “Bizarro” episode of Sealab, it’s anybody’s guess… =)
“When a plapple meets a plapple, comin’ through the rye…”
I’m not sure what made me think of that.
