Grog all round!

Ahoy, me fine wenches! Today we splice the main brace, for today be Talk Like A Pirate Day.

If ye feel yer pirate lingo needs improvin', ye can run yer text through a landlubber-to-pirate translatin' machine, and all ye swabs can get a proper Pirate Name here, if ye can't think o' one yerselves. Arrr!

They call me Meatcleaver Mary, an' I aims to know who yer favorite pirate may be. Fer me, while I had thoughts o' t' Dread Pirate Roberts an' Granuaille an' Captain Jack Sparrow, thar's one pirate that has t' come first:


Nebula the Pirate Queen





Armwrestlin' the lads





In action





Lookin' for booty





With 'er cabin boy




(These pictures ta'en from the Hercules episodes Faith and Web o' Desire.)

Now tell me, who be yer favorite pirate, an' what be yer pirate name?

Sadly, I lack the ability to talk like a pirate. But my pirate name is Sadi Rough Tongue, which is - well, sadly accurate. And Nebula is just about the hottest pirate that ever there was, with some of the finest mates on the seven seas.

Armwrestlin' the lads

See, this is why I can't talk like a pirate. I would've written that "Arrrrrrrmwrestlin' the lads."

*sad*

It is a tragic thing to have no aptitude for dialect.

Aw. I mean, Arrr. Thar ain't nothing about tha' in t' code. Bless yer, Sadi, we all just makes it up as we goes along...

*arrrrrrrrmwrestles you*
