Aye, today be Talk Like a Pirate Day! On this fine day, everyone can talk like a pirate all day long. ‘Tis a fine way t’be speakin’, and if ye’ disagree I may make ye’ walk the ol’ plank and send ye’ ta’ ol’ Davy Jones’ Locker!

Avast, me hearties! In 'onour o' Talk Like a Pirate Day I thought I'd ask ye fer yer grandly bestest pirate moments in gamin', arr. Not them name-usurpin', bilge rat software pirates, no, but the true, swashbucklin', seafarin', wench stealin' Pirates o' the High Seas, aye.

I's expecting lots o' Monkey Island love here me fellow netlubbers, but I be holdin' a secret admeration fer Cervantes de Leon's magnificently impressivesome swordplay, yes I do.

Let's all raise a pitcher o' grog to the unsung heroes o' gamin', the Pirates!

Welcome, me hearty, to the British HQ for Talk Like A Pirate Day! I be Mad Cap'n Tom, yer webcap'n.
