Today is Talk Like A Pirate Day!
Talk Like a Pirate Day only comes once a year (on September 19th), this year it falls on a Monday. On talk like a pirate day, everyone talks as if they were a pirate. For instance, instead of saying something like this:
The commitee has decided to reallocate your time to the filing group. We look forward to the exciting new synergies between these departments.
You would say this:
Aye matey, those scalawags in their fine breeches want ye' to move o'er with the scurvy dogs yonder. If ye' don't come back with some fine booty, we be keelhaulin' you next morn!
If you're not ready yet, you can learn more about this international holiday on the AboutPirateDay page or practice some phrases from the PiratePhrases page. After all, you don't want to be handed the BlackSpot when the holiday is over!

My pirate name is:
Dirty Mary Rackham
![](flag.gif)
You're the pirate everyone else wants to throw in the ocean -- not to get rid of you, you understand; just to get rid of the smell. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!
Get your own pirate name from fidius.org.
