(I just want people to accidentally click on the wrong thread title. That's the whole purpose of a dobie. Right?)

Anyway, who knew that there was a pirate forum? We should board and take over on "Post Like a Pirate" day. They wouldn't even know what hit them.

Ninjas > Pirates

How about Ninja Pirates, or Pirate ninjas?

The strap on my sundress broke today, so I pinned the dress to my bra (I'm wearing a cardigan over it) that says "I'll swashbuckle any landlubber me sees,ye scurvy dogs!!"

I would prefer it more if it said "scurvy curs," but I'm not sure that the mass comsumer market knows the meaning of the word.

(In response to Derrell's post)

[Dave Barry]Either of those would be a great name for a band. [/Dave Barry]

I personally like "Combat Alfalfa" as a band name.

Starla, you should say "curs" and watch people be even more confused. [Smile]

Avast ye, land lubbers! Tis' time to set sail upon the metaphorical ocean that is the internet! ALL HANDS ON BOARD!

Oh, jeez, here we go with the Ninja vs. Pirate thing---

Though the idea of a ninja pirate or vice versa, is very sexy.

I'm dating a guy who is a bit of a buddist, but loves Pirates of the Carribean, and would do well as a swashbuckler...

If I teach him Kung-fu, do you think he would count as a ninja-pirate?

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

Definitely.

Posted by Storm Saxon (Member # 3101) on :

Ninjas would never be something as girly as a pirate. A 'pirate ninja' is like well written anime, or OSC complimenting liberals. It'll never happen. Sorry.

What I have written, I have written.

But, if you remember, in the movie The Princess Bride, the Dread-Pirate Roberts had a very ninja-esque quality about him--all black attire, masked, stealthy, resistant to poison and all around unstoppable.

Until the six-fingered dude came along.

*bump to ask*

When is post like a pirate day anyway? Isn't it about time for another one of those?

Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :

September 22, I believe.

*squeal* Another new Access Denied Category: Violence. I really need to make a list.

Why?

Posted by Frisco (Member # 3765) on :

I think it's a step in the right direction, Storm.

I hope that in the future, bra clasps, along with everything else, will be voice activated.

Anyone seen that short film about the guy with a ninja for a room mate? It's good viewin'.

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

Anyone see the Perfect Stranger's episode where Balki was a ninja and attacked Larry when he came home.....

I'm really revealing my level of "nerd" aren't I?
