As somebody not from the US of A... What is a "salt life decal" and who would or wouldn't have one?
Took me a long time to realize it wasn't slut life.
In Utah there's plenty of people who unironically wear shirts with SL,UT on them.
Bumper stickers as well
I'll buy that if I ever travel there
I want to go there just to get the shirt tbh
I'll copy my response to the other person who was also confused by the reference:
In America, there's a very popular car windshield decal sticker that people put on that says "Salt Life." It specifically just means someone visited a popular beach vacation spot called Myrtle Beach, SC. The people who put it on tend to being almost exclusively sporty douchebags and suburban moms.
That's about it.
Edit: changed NC to SC
Just to be precise, Myrtle Beach is in SC. I didn't think the slut life stickers were exclusively from there though.
They aren't
Ah, thanks for the correction I'll edit the comment. I always think NC for some reason, but both Carolinas are pretty interchangable in my mind.
Ah so the German equivalent would be the Sylt sticker
Ohhhhhh, those people!
You think it's the worst... And then there are those who want to ramp it up to 11.
Time to make a punk leather jacket with the sylt logo on the back.
Or Destin/Pensacola!
Huh, that's somehow way worse. I always was under the impression that it was only Myrtle Beach.
That's because both are "the redneck reviera"
I'm from Arkansas. We vacationed in both Pensacola and Destin. God dammit
Most folks in the central US who want a beach vacation drive down to Floribama. Most if not all Salt Life stickers from Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, western Tennessee, etc are born in the Florida panhandle.
My wife and I are from the midwest and laugh at all the sLuT LiFe stickers on Jeeps nowhere close to the ocean.On a trip to Jacksonville Beach there was a spinoff restaraunt which was like Hooters had a baby with the Gap.
I had to go look because that was just too interesting of a description. And damn if that’s not exactly it.
I'm from west coast USA and I've also never heard of this.
