Avast, me hearties!

Welcome to the one and only, official, accept-no-substitutes Talk Like A Pirate Day Web site.

You've read about it in Dave Barry's blog. Maybe you caught one of our radio or TV interviews. Or maybe you just stumbled on to our site while googling around for sites your mother probably wouldn't approve of. Perhaps you're one of the millions of people from South Africa to Australia, from New York to the Pacific Northwest, who party like pirates every September 19th.

However you got here, stick around an' learn all about September 19 - International Talk Like A Pirate Day!

My pirate name is:

Dread Pirate Flint

Like the famous Dread Pirate Roberts, you have a keen head for how to make a profit. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!

My pirate name is:

Red Sam Flint

Passion is a big part of your life, which makes sense for a pirate. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!

I got arrested last time I did that.

If your a cop and you arrest yourself, is it still considered a citizen's arrest?

[Tanniker Smith]

Arrr! Call me Jibber! Captain of the Tops! Up in the crow's nest I'll be, keepin' a lookout and keepin' an eye on those scum that boarded in Tortuga. Don' trust the lot a' them just yet.

JERRY She had man-hands.

ELAINE [pause] Man, Hands?

JERRY The hands of a man. It's like a creature out of Greek Mythology, I mean, she was like part woman, part horrible beast.

ELAINE [weary] {Look,} would you, prefer it, if she had, no hands at all?

JERRY Would she have hooks?

ELAINE Do uh, do hooks make it more attractive, Jerry?

JERRY Kinda cool lookin'..

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Alas 'n' alack, I gainsay 'twould be nigh yet a fortnight afore me bearings be straitened for landlubbing. Avast ye mates of buccaneers, ye filthy scoundrels of the deep, a pox on your corsairs 'ere they alight in HomePort Fresno.

Me Sooner Schooner be all th' sailin' rig ye loathsome curs might be a-handlin'. Eateth ye me dust!

Excellent! Best TLAPD post ever, you wench! :)

Yosemite Sam: Now gimme them jewels. Them's my treasure, and I'm going to hide them where no one will know where they're at but me.

Bugs Bunny: Aha, and me.

Yosemite Sam: What? [points gun at Bugs]

Yosemite Sam: Say your prayers, varmit. Dead rabbits tell no tales.

Bugs Bunny: Now, just a minute, Red. Ain't you got that wrong? It's "dead men tell no tales."

Yosemite Sam: Dead men tell no...? Say, you're right. Well, reckon I ain't got no alternative. [Points gun at his own head]
