  1. I don't even know how to talk like a pirate, let alone desire to talk like one. Actually, I don't even like pirates. How about talk like a MIME day? THAT, I could like.

  14. Pirate talk?
    There are no pirates in the Caspian.

  15. Why? Is Caspian getting fussy in his old age?

  18. BOXER: I don't even know how to talk like a pirate, let alone desire to talk like one. Actually, I don't even like pirates. How about talk like a MIME day? THAT, I could like.

    (Response to your comment is being mimed).

    BOXER: how do you say FIRST in Pirate?

    Consult the Pirate Speak Translator.

    GINRO: Arrrrr! Prepare to be boarded! Arrrr!
    But no no. It weren't oi that did 'em nooospapers, no no. Them be the real deal, arrrrlolarrr.


    Of course they’re the real deal but ‘twas you who delivered the news.

    You must be tired what with all the extra inserts in the Saturday papers.

    NWTRUNNER: See comment from Ginro.

    XL: Something equally annoying, this is.

    We shall boycott “Talk Like Yoda Day” as well.

    But for those who are interested, “Yay I’m first” translates into “Yay, first, am I. Yes, hmmm.” in Yoda-Speak.

    CYBERPOOF: There's only one pirate for me but he isn't interested.

    We assume you speak of Mean Dirty Pirate?

    He’s too busy working the truck stops of Florida’s Gulf Coast to have time for anyone else.

    IVD: Arrrrrr- I mean: Heavens! Doesn't that man in the white T-shirt in the front row of the New York Times photo look like he's pooing himself?
    * wanders off looking for a plank to walk *


    He does look a bit constipated, now that you mention it.

    Maybe it’s just a bad case of gas.

    *prepares Febreze can*

    *installs moat with plank*

    GARFY: Keef Richards is a pirate.
    It's true.


    Don’t toy with me where Keef is concerned.

    ROSES: Oh Hai Boxer, Cyberpete and XL.
    Or should that be 'Oh Arrrr'?


    As I mentioned to Boxer, consult the Pirate Speak Translator.

    SCARLET: My parrot is very upset, he was looking forward to today.
    My parrot is very upset, he was looking forward to today.
    See.


    Hasn’t your parrot had enough excitement for one week?

    GEOFF: This year's isn't a patch on last year's.

    Har.

    Oh damn…my guffaw sounds like a pirate.

    KAPI: Pieces of cake! Pieces of cake!

    Did someone mention cake?

    MAGO: Pirate talk?
    There are no pirates in the Caspian.


    Answer Roses’ question.

    ROSES: Why? Is Caspian getting fussy in his old age?

    *waits for response from Mago*

    PIGGY: Miserable cunt.

    At least I’ve posted something new!

    CYBERPOOF: Hey Roses, fancy a glass of red wine?
    *raises his glass*


    Roses never says no.

    BETTY: I can't be arsed to talk like a pirate. Is it okay if I just chop one of my legs off instead?

    I intend to be legless by the end of the day so please join me.

  19. Cyberpete ~ I'd love a glass. How did you know? But as it's Pirate Day, shouldn't that be rum? I have here a lovely Guyanan Gold Rum called El Dorado, aged for 25 years. How do you like it? Straight up, or with some added ingredients?

    Go on MJ have some. You know you want to. Anyone else?

    ReplyDelete
  20. Aye! Let's drop anchor in Poo Bay Jim lad.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Oh Hai XL, Roses, Cyberpete I'm back with some Pirate-y drinkees.

    Ok, it's just vodka, but I put them in dirty glasses.

    weeeeeeeeeeeee

    ReplyDelete
  22. How about creating some exotic cocktail with it Roses.

    Something with Malibu rum and pineapple?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Sure will do, who's got the Angostura Bitters?

    Ginro?

    ReplyDelete
  24. ROSES, BOXER AND CYBERPOOF:

    Here’s a recipe for grog.

    Put THAT in yer flagon.

    MITZI: Aye! Let's drop anchor in Poo Bay Jim lad.

    Been there. Got the t-shirt..

    ReplyDelete
  25. There's no Malibu in that!

    The gay thing and the pussy rum is a bit of an oxymoron isn't it?

    ReplyDelete
  26. CyberPete enough of the Malibu already.

    Mt Gay Eclipse is a good Barbadian rum. It is definitely worth drinking.

    Yummy.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Fuzzy?

    Toast please. And some of that Barbarian Rum.

    ReplyDelete
  28. BITCHES: Mago appears to have some sort of Caspian sea obsession as of late.

    (See the link he left AND his latest post AND every comment he's left on every blog)

    Please indulge him as you’re concocting your cocktails.

  32. MAGO: Thank you for the lovely necklace (jewellery pleases Mistress MJ).

    And that plane ticket to Firenze?

    You'll be taking Mistress MJ, not CyberPoof.

    They'd throw him off the plane for drunkenness.

  36. I am with you in this, Mistress, but I still need to point out it's not "Arrrrrrr," it's ArrrrrrGH." Get it right or don't get it, that's what I say.

  38. I thought this blog was all about pirates--What with all the booty, the alcohol, and the ruffians that visit and the suspected illegal activities that go on here at times.

    More ships pass in the night here than the Panama Canal! There are more seamen here than in the entire US Fleet!

  39. That damn parrot seems to be getting everywhere.
    Sx

  40. You'll have to excuse me Mago, as they recently put my medication up (why do you all think I disappeared for several days?) and I cannot make head nor tail of what you're on about, lol.

    mrpeenee, I am sorry sire but you are incorrect.

    Quote from a pirate site:

    "Arrr! - This one is often confused with arrrgh, which is of course the sound you make when you sit on a belaying pin. "Arrr!" can mean, variously, "yes," "I agree," "I'm happy," "I'm enjoying this beer," "My team is going to win it all," "I saw that television show, it sucked!" and "That was a clever remark you or I just made." And those are just a few of the myriad possibilities of Arrr!"

    ReplyDelete
  41. I disagree with you Ginro. I think you are muddling 'Arrr', 'Arrrgghh' and 'Ahhhhh'. And they all mean completely different things. The pirate site is misinformed.
    Sx

    ReplyDelete
  42. Arrrrr.
    Arrr? Arrr arrr ar arr arrrrrrrrr.

    ReplyDelete
  43. And could you please keep that bloomin' parrot of yours under control Miss Scarlet. I was trying to do some important research when it flew in the window...

    Haliwr.

    MR.PEENEE: I am with you in this, Mistress, but I still need to point out it's not "Arrrrrrr," it's ArrrrrrGH." Get it right or don't get it, that's what I say.

    See Ginro’s response to you, further down.

    My own take on it is that “ArrrrrrGH” is the sound Mr. Peenee makes when he is marble-gargling.

    MAGO: Using this site, Ginro, be sure to have a good caspean assessment http://www.valcartier.drdc-rddc.gc.ca/sciences/caspean-eng.asp

    What Ginro said.

    EROS: I thought this blog was all about pirates--What with all the booty, the alcohol, and the ruffians that visit and the suspected illegal activities that go on here at times.
    More ships pass in the night here than the Panama Canal! There are more seamen here than in the entire US Fleet!


    This blog is always awash in seamen.

    SCARLET: That damn parrot seems to be getting everywhere.

    Miss Scarlet, may I remind you that The Colonies are 9 months behind the UK in Corrie episodes?

    Carla and Tony have only just wed!

    And now you’re saying there’s a parrot?

    I’ve only just grown accustomed to seeing the Labrador retriever of the recently-deceased Liam.

    GINRO: You'll have to excuse me Mago, as they recently put my medication up (why do you all think I disappeared for several days?) and I cannot make head nor tail of what you're on about, lol.

    mrpeenee, I am sorry sire but you are incorrect.

    When dealing with Mago, it is best just to nod in agreement saying “Ja, das ist gut.”

    I’ve no idea what he’s on about either but he’s quite delightful and gives a good foot massage so I let him ramble on and on.

    As for Mr. Peenee, he has come down with a case of the MANFLU and must be excused for the error of his ways.

    SCARLET: I disagree with you Ginro. I think you are muddling 'Arrr', 'Arrrgghh' and 'Ahhhhh'. And they all mean completely different things. The pirate site is misinformed.

    I am not listening to you since you gave away the Corrie plot line.

    GINRO: Arrrrr.
    Arrr? Arrr arrr ar arr arrrrrrrrr.


    Eh?

    SCARLET: Precisely!

    Oi.


    GINRO: And could you please keep that bloomin' parrot of yours under control Miss Scarlet. I was trying to do some important research when it flew in the window...

    You’re in your cups. Or HER cups.

    SCARLET: Apologies. Charlie likes big baps.

    Bread rolls? I thought parrots liked crackers!

    SAVANNAH: fuckit, i'm drinkin beer! xoxoxo

    At this point, no one here will care WHAT you do.

    BEAST: ***stomps in with wooden leg akimbo , cutlass clenched in perfect white teeth , eyepatch and inflated rubber glove on shoulder in place of parrot***
    Avast there me hearties
    Shiver me timbers and belike do y'see
