Avast, me hearties!

Gather 'round, gather 'round. 'tis a pirate's tale ye will hear, filled with darin' battles an' teriffin' storms an' more pirate booty than ye can dream of. Leave the lan' lubber in ye behind as ye set sail for distant shores filled with adventure 'n grand pirate ways.


It's Talk like a pirate day. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] imbri6 for the heads up. I plan on scaring all my classes today by being pirate-like. And I'll keep the soundtrack to Pirates of the Caribbean on loop.

Remember: Take what ye can and give nothin' back.

From the website:

10 . Avast, me proud beauty! Wanna know why my Roger is so Jolly?
9. Have ya ever met a man with a real yardarm?
8. Come on up and see me urchins.
7. Yes, that is a hornpipe in my pocket and I am happy to see you.
6. I'd love to drop anchor in your lagoon.

Three days before the mast? I was thinkin' mar like 5 minutes and then a nice nap in the crow's nest, but if it's lahngterm worship yr looking fer I'll ahblige yas...

Shiver me timber lass, and prepare to take cargo.

No miss, me wooden leg is under the 'ammock. This'ere's me steel one.

Give a yank on me mizzen sheet dear woman, and raise this tired old sail ifn ya got the goods.

'Ere's me plank, now letchur fingers do the walkin....

Posts like that are the reason I make it a point never to be drinking anything when I read comments on lj.

My favorite: Shiver me timber lass, and prepare to take cargo.

Now, if I can only make my brain stop trying to put them in the dialog I'm writing, I'll be fine.
