Today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day
I’m serious.
What am I supposed to say? Oh yeah: Listen up, you dirty bilge rats! I am The Dread Dog of the Depths! Behold my glowing gold eyes!
You don’t scare me you cowardly canine! Now get back in your cargo cage, or I’ll cockamamie the cockswain right out yer caboodle!
Argh! It means I’ve had too much grog, you yellow eyed, yellow bellied, yellow haired denizen of Mickey Dolenz’s locker!
They’re all a bunch of Monkees, which is what you’re going to become if you don’t watch it, you grog-guzzling gargantuan go-go boot wearing goober! Grrrrr!
Avast! That’s because yer a dumb lubber who doesn’t know a good time when it drapes itself around her head! So says I!
Arrgh! Get outta here right smart then, ya pathetic pusillanimous peacock. And bring me back some grog!
I don’t think pirates talk like that.
Damn to the depths, you cursed creature!
The rest of this post has been lost to the watery depths as Rio and I fought to the death! The death, mateys! In its place, I offer you one final shot, of the best pirate there ever could have been:

Thank you, thank you very much.

Terryifying and yet awesome.
Well, at least it wasn’t ARRRRRRR rated.
Ahoy, you grog-drinkin’, dog-lovin’, scurvey-riddin’ mate!
That’s the best I can do!
Every day is Talk Like a Pirate Day in my house. Every freakin’ day since my mother made the boys’ purple velveteen pirate ensembles - because pirates love to be flamboyant.
Oh no! I almost missed it. My baby actually has a “talk like a pirate day” onesie. Will have to stick him in it tomorrow to make up for lost time.
You are a funny pirate.
Blimey, it’s high time I get my arse in bed.
You have a wonderfully surreal and zany sense of humor, and your dog is cute. I enjoyed that very much.
Your dog is so pissed off at you right now.
Ah…Elvis as a Pirate…a singing Pirate…now THAT would have been a memorable movie. sigh.
I missed Talk Like A Pirate day? Damnit!
Loved your perilous pirate battle. If only I could get my cat to hold still for a picture….
Can I hire you for my kids birthday party? It’s a pirate theme.
Ok, actually, I’ll just take the dog.
