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!

They be tied in thar hummocks. But, says I, they'll be holystonin the decks soon. If they are right smart about it, they mayest get some cold gruel, if the galley don't ship too much water.

This pirate walks into a bar with a big ships wheel down his pants. The bartender says, "excuse me, sir, but do you know you have a ship's wheel down the front of your pants?" The Pirate says, "Aaaarrrrrrgh, yes and its driving me nuts!"
