September 19th

Today be talk like a pirate day. It should be known ye lubber that this manor of pirate talk with "Arrs" and the ascent has nay a drop of historical accuracy. To be fair a bit of the lingo isn't completely marooned from actual nautical terms, but most of it is Hollywood.


To be honest with ye, a lot of pirate chatter is just nicknames, ship talk, or threats. And it's hard to convey the accent in text. If you've watched SpongeBob- scratch that. ok if you haven't watched SpongeBob, how. I'm not even saying as an American that little guy is everywhere and I don't imagine anyone old enough to be too old for SpongeBob would be reading this. I lost train of thought. But yeah talk like a pirate you scurvy dogs.
