If yer like a laugh, visit me 'o blog (link below) where by da magic o' th Internet, 'tis been entirely co-verted ta Pirate speek for tha day! Yarrr!

😀
 
It's all over...

Yep, International Talk Like a Pirate Day is over for another year, well, it's been over for 3.5 hours now but you get the drift. To conclude the festivities I'd like to quote from one of history's greatest pirates:

"Why has the rum gone?"

Why indeed Jack, why indeed...

Still pirate day for us here in the UK my friend and to celebrate the fact here is my favourite 'pirate looking without actually being a pirate' person (and yes, I know that he is a horrible **** but he does look incredibly like a pirate and is only a wooden leg away). It's Abu Hamza, the wacky controversial cleric, by the way.

Edit: DAAAAAAAR!!!

Do you reckon pirates have an International Talk Like A MacRumors Member Day?

Maybe we should make this day..........Next Tuesday™. A day where members can safely ask about those Memron™ processors without being snickered at.
 
Darn, I completely forgot about it this year. I think that it's because I was home sick. 🙁 Now I have to wait a whole 'nother year.
 
Yar! An' I be sittin' here, stuck to me work like a barnacle on me ship's underbelly.
 
Influenced by having visited Japan, I was mixing my Ls and Rs. The Japanese R is between the English L and R, and sometimes sounds closer to D -- hear the word "roku" (six).

As a result, I've mistakenly spent all day talking like pilates!
 
Wow, I really can't think of anything witty to say. But my friends and I were having a laugh about this web page. Near the bottom are some pirate pick-up lines. "Prepare to be boarded!" 🙂
