"A pirate walks into a bar" (you know it had to be, right?)

(ahem)

"A pirate walks into a bar. He has this big ships steering wheel attached to the front of his pants.

The bartender can't help but ask why the pirate has that on the front of his pants to which the pirate replies, 'Arrrgh, matey, it's drivin' me nuts!'"

"Arr you lilly-livered dog, what do that be, sublight in the shallows of yon Warp Point?"

"It do be the pox-ridden fleet of the scurvey Gravey invaders sir. They do be waiting for renforcements."

"Avast! The Gravey? Wit der acrused Talisman!?!"

"Aye sir. Wit der acrused Talisman. 'Tis a witch's pact wit de Devil himself, to be sure, sir. Arr."

"What manner of cannon do dey bring?"

"Dey bring the PPB on most all der ships and the SD on der largest hulls."

"De SD!?!? Why, we don't even have shields! Never plundered such a bounty. Get 'er back in the wind, lads! We're goin' to die or live like Kings!"

i sent the booty one to my wife

That's the finest pirate booty I've ever laid eyes on.

She replied back.
Huh what are you smoking.

I explained that it is pirate day.

She did not get as excited about it as I thought she would.

Captain: Arr, foshizzle me nizzle, thar be plunder oof the starboard boo, eh!

First mate: Uh, cap'n?

Captain: Yarrr, eh, matey?

First mate: I don't think pirates are supposed to say "foshizzle me nizzle".

Captain: Well then what DO we say, eh?

First mate: How 'bout "shiver me timbers"?

Captain: "Shiver me timbers"! Eh, that might work... 'boot time someone came up with something that made more sense, never could figger oot what "foshizzle me nizzle" means anyway...

First mate: An' one more thing... no matter how much ye pretend, cap'n, there's NO SUCH THING as a Canadian pirate!

Captain: Arrrrr.... but I never wanted to be a pirate anyway... I always wanted to be a LUMBERJACK!

I'M A LUMBERJACK AND I'M OK
I SLEEP ALL NIGHT, I WORK ALL DAY
ON WEDNESDAYS I GO SHOPPING
AND HAVE BUTTERED SCONES FOR TEA!
