Talk Like A Pirate

Piracy is a crime, you know. Please refrain from glamourising it in such a lightweight manner.

Me hearties.

Blistering barnacles!

Buckle any swashes you might have on your persons.

Blistering barnacles? Billions of bilious blue blistering barnacles back at you sir! Although I'm not convinced Captain Haddock counts as a pirate.

Garrr, I'll wager ten doubloons Lord Likely be a soft land lubber ne'er to 'ave tasted the cat o' nine tails cuttin' it's raw mark on 'is gentlemanly backside. An' a good keelhaulin' for any scurvy dog that say otherwise.

Now 'tis time I find me a wench an' make 'er scream wi' a wannion whilst plunderin' 'er skirts for the fine booty thar beneath.

I believe Grazor may be having some kind of seizure.

I made a comment at humorbloggers wondering if they were going to have "Talk Like A Nazi Day"-I'm German. My answer to Pirate Day? Nein!

I love pirates! Arrrghhh, maties!!! Let's have we a swashbuckling festival with buffles of rum and women we took as booty from a yonder village on shore. What say ye?! Shiver me timbers, yer a landlubber after all!!! Ha!

"Harrrr," said the burly pirate.

"Harr?" asked the lusty wench.

"Aye. Harrrr"
