I bet the birthday theme ran a bit dry after a few years, yeah?

On a related note - If you put 'Pirate' into google, guess what the first result is?

Yarr!

*Yawn*

Yet another joke that's been taken too far due to the internets inability to portray satire to its primarily unintelligent readers.

Well, most pirates were retards to begin with, so I don't think it'll make much of a difference.

My apologies to any pirate fans.

The reason ninjas don't just flip out and kill the pirates when some fool wears a shirt like that is because some of them are far more modest then pirates.

Not to mention Ninjas don't have genital herepes, so they don't have the same confidence-problems pirates do.

Yeah but, Samurais can kill them both, reminding me of a true story I came accross in a book, a small ship full of samurai were attacked by pirates, the samurai were the survivors...

But pirates are great.

[edit]
Also, being internet geeks, to us, talk like a pirate day should be something like;

Dudez I'z likerz haxxord NASA lastz nitez I woz so 1337! 1 nuk3rzd franc3 lolz rotfl WTF!!!!11111oneoneone u'z a n00b an I ownz u @ pokemon.

Yar, tis to AppleBee we should listen.

I'll be keeping me name and location like this fer a week, for tis a jolly life a pirate leads today, even if it twer not four score and seven year a past.

In fact, I be adding a pirate mode to Block Verse 2 now in commemoration of Talk Like a Pirate day. I be makin' the password "Talk Like a Pirate day"/"September 19th", or ye shall have ter beat the hard core campain. Block Man be gettin' his own pirate drab ter wear, and t'will be a fine way ter spice up conversations.

Yes it is, like sabotaging and attacking other people's rafts on a team building day...We still won when theirs fell apart and they went over board.

You're no fun...you're like Plankton on Spongebob Squarepants, this calls for song my friend, 'F' is for Friends who do stuff together, 'U' is for yoU and me, N is for anywhere and everywhere here in the deep blue sea...You take it away Jeku!

Yes indeed I have not taken my medication this afternoon.
