A real pirate would talk like a pirate when it isn’t Talk Like A Pirate Day ™. A real pirate wouldn’t care if Aunt Gertie or Biff from Accounting looked askance.

Of course, a real pirate would probably kill your family, too.

  1. Why don’t we trademark Steal Like A Pirate Day (TM)?

    I don’t get it. I’ve seen others talking about this too. Is there a trademarked day?

    Doesn’t Switzerland have a Pirate’s political party? I’d consider voting for a pirate party if we had that.

    I thought about dressing up last week, y’know, with a sniper hole in my head and talking with a Somali accent, but I didn’t think anyone would get it.

    Naw, it is not literally trademarked; that was expressive license to get across the point that what was a few years ago a lighthearted and subversive poke at holidays has been grabbed by corporations and adopted as another new McHoliday on which people are supposed to participate by buying McCrap for “flair.”
