Arr! 'appy Talk Like A Pirate Day ye mateys and salty dogs! Tis kindar intresting tat someone knew 'bout tis day at scool. Funny t'ing is he knew noting about webcomics. Arr! Me crew seems to be slacking! Hoist te sails Mr. Christian! Arr!<br><br>"Aye Aye Caoimhin!"<br><br>Arr! Tis the tird time you did not call me by me title! 1st Mate Paine give him 50 lases!

Arr har har!<br><br>(Yes it is true someone actually knew about this day. Supposed to be in a piratey voice with a slight cockney influence, though all I know about writing like someone is speaking in a cockney dialect is that you take away any "h"s in words. I should ask Rooster how you would write a cockney dialect. Not that I think he speaks with one but because he does live in England so I thought he may know. Although I think its strictly a londoneer dialect and I'm not sure if he lives in London)

I'm guessing using the Shift-Enter-Avast Keys brings up the "Walk the Plank" Command <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... s/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

You know, when I logged in to SL last night, I got a free pirate translator. You talk into it normally, and it translates it into pirate, then says it in your name.<br><br>Unfortunately, it has a bug: it translates for those around you. Needless to say, much chaos ensued. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->
