It's not just the appearance of the life ring, it's also the expression on the bear's face

Im gonna blow your mind and tell you it's meant to be a seal, not a polar bear.

Not a bear or a seal. Sea lion (it has visible ears). I got my zoology degree just so I could come here and make this comment!

But. But seals don't have external ears. Or external....nevermind.

Because it's a sea lion....or I guess it could be a fur seal as they have external ears.

So... this "seal" is using this "life ring" as a glory hole of some kind?

I don't see it

That whole thing is funny but in the same respect strange. u/FurredFalcon mentioned Surf Life Saving real for what is in front of the polar bear and that kind of makes sense, but what is that random line going under the polar bears paw on the left side of the photo a rope maybe, why do the paws just end at the Saving real frame, there are other problems with the sign manufacturer but that is just nit picking and this is supposed to be funny.

It’s not a polar bear, it’s a seal. Well, it’s meant to be.

That makes a lot of sense, I was thinking this might be up north and they do the polar bear plunge. I think the ears threw me off.

Thought that was a Klan hood at first.

See nothing wrong with this. If a polar bear wishes to pleasure themselves in public they should #bearurgesmatter

Does the SLSC stand for Seal's Life Saving Cock?

What kind of club?

duhvorced t1_iy32si6 wrote

It’s an Australian thing. (And someone from AUS should correct me if I have this wrong.)

Where beach cities in the US employ lifeguards, in AUS they have life saving “clubs”. Same basic role - to patrol the beach, rescue swimmers in distress - but they’re more social, more strongly identified with by the community. They also have competitions between clubs, so there’s more of a sporting element to it, kind of like lower-tier football (soccer) teams in England.

And yes, this is an American using an analogy to British sports to explain an Australian concept, so you’re right to be skeptical. 😜

That's the general gist, other than there is some paid lifeguards.

Life saving clubs can also refer to the clubhouse, where there is often some kind of restaurant and bar open to the public

Very interesting. Thank you for your explanation. I was so confused just reading the title. Never heard anything like that before😅

It reminds me of the old masturbating bear skit on Conan O'Brian

Looks like a klan hood from a distance and up close it is a polar bear pleasuring a life ring. Horrendous
