Talk like this pirate

Or this pirate

Perhaps this pirate will do.

    Let’s not forget, madam, that one could simply imitate Jack Sparrow, savvy? 😉

    Aye, you can imitate Jack Sparrow. And when you do that, give him this for me, will you?

    That’s because the lampshade game has actual rules. Here we have more what you would call “guidelines.”

    Ye must be a pirate for the pirate’s code to apply and ye’re not!

    Comfy now?

  • 10. Elzbth  |  September 19, 2006 at 9:31 pm

    Yes, except for these red vertical lines on my ribca…Oh! Yes, the pirate’s code. Unfortunately I have already used the only line I can actually remember.

    I make a lousy pirate.

    Here I thought from the slap that you were trying more for Elizabeth Swann than a pirate. Silly me!

    Will: You didn’t beat me. you ignored the rules of engagement. In a fair fight, I’d killed you.

    Jack: Then that’s not much incentive for me to fight fair, then, is it? [moves one of the sails so that the yard catches Will and swings him out over the sea] Now, as long as you’re just hanging there, pay attention. The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can’t do. For instance, you can accept that your father was a pirate and a good man or you can’t. But pirate is in your blood, boy, so you’ll have to square with that someday. Now, me, for example, I can let you drown but I can’t bring this ship into Tortuga all by me onesy, savvy? So: [swings him back on board and offers him his sword] can you sail under the command of a pirate? Or can you not?

    That’s the best I can do, but it is a great exchange, no? 😀

    It’s remarkable how often those two traits coincide! 😉

    Everyone drank the rum except for Musli. He’s still got his extra ration. 😦

    A demented exchange, incoherent yet all too familiar, lasting over 7 hours. Up ahead in the distance, that light next to the Jolly Roger. You have entered a dimension not only of sigh and sound but of the feeble mind. Next stop, the Moron Zone.
