Thats right, for some bizarre reason, here in the UK it's national talk like a pirate day.
Just thought I'd let you guy know because if you're anything like me, you will find talking like a pirate highly amusing and now there's a day dedicated to it. Arrr

Heh, it's also Pirate Day here in the United States. I, however, prefer to speak like a software/music pirate. IE, normally.

HA, no wonder so many people were talking about pirates at lunch today. Of course I had to pull out the classic "Did you hear what the pirate movie got rated?"., though I didn't know why we were talking about pirates

I was wondering why there were mentions of moving to the UK to talk like a pirate in this thread. Then I read the top post again.
