Do we need a pirate emoticon?

[N4TE]

Now, it's clear to me that pirates are the new ninjas, and that tabi boots have nothing on puffy shirts, so, with this in mind, do we need a pirate emoticon on ITM? I think we do, and I think you agree. so vote. do we need one of these?

Pirate one.

Pirate two.
http://www.users.on.net/madmike/images/posts/smilies/pirate.gif

http://www.users.on.net/madmike/images/posts/smilies/bowdown.gif to MM for these classy options

[Wet Cardboard]

anyone that doesn't vote yes gets broadsided.

pirates are the new electroclash. betta recognize, aaRRRRR!

[Griggle]

Arrr, Nate me old shipmate we do need a pirate emoticon. I like em both.

Nosoup I think Sept 19 we will need them but they are useful all the time. I often want to use a pirate emoticon (I do believe I brought this up two weeks ago in the Perth forum actually ;))

[N4TE]

It would be invaluable in the music production and technology forum. Seriously, you'd be supprised how often conversation turns to pirates, piracy or pieces of eight.

[lewdminx]

Pirates fucking suck, where be my trusty ninja emoticon, scurrilous landlubber?!

P.S. Yarr.

P.P.S. Ninjas > pirates

[Griggle]

lewdminx thats a load of crap. :|

I don't believe there is an International Talk Like A Ninja Day. :|

International Talk Like a Pirate Day is on the 19th of September in case anyone is wondering. ;)

That's just crazy talk, ya scurvy dawgs! someone link me to an online puffyshirt purveyor. I got an itch and no katana can scratch it.

I also request a cattle rustling emoticon.


A small anecdote about pirates is they were terrible cooks. It was reported by a british naval officer who was prisoner on a pirate ship that dinner consisted of a large cauldron filled with everything from roots and plants to whole unplucked and un-gutted chickens...

No wonder they are always so surly and drinking rum.

[mushroombaby]

um, i'd like a policeman, a construction worker, a cowboy and a bikie too please ;D

and a chef :blush:

[big eddie]

pirate number two for sure!

you posted this a while ago, i think, and it has inspired me to dress up like a Pirate at my rather large birthday celebrations a week later.

[ka2per]

Pirate number one cos number two could just be a raver with an eye problem or a bad black eye

[phatman]

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

Ahoy mateys! Nate, ye scurvy dog ye. Thar be no greater pleasure, than that to had, when ye are shooting cannons at Her Majesty's Fleet, while drinking rum, strokin ye parrot, and yelling out "Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr".

Ye mutinous dogs.

Oh, thine emoticon has been given my official one hook and thumb up.

Arrrrrrr.

(Postscript: It is a well documented historical fact that pirates were the first gangsters to promote the use of bling, and to pursue booty, in all its forms. So all you "players" and Murda Inc Muppets better show some respect, or face the prospect of a keel-hauling. Nyarrrr.)

[breaksRbest]

of all the emoticons ITM needs, a pirate one would be the last on my list.

pices of eight, pieces of eight.

[Iain]

I'd prefer ninja ones
pirates suck :(

eg....

The King's Gold/Babes

Scene 1:

In the olden days, there was this sweet king that had mounds of gold and babes. These pirates decided to steal the mounds and surrounded the castle and everybody freaked, except the king who was like “Chill homies, I’ll handle this crap.”

The pirates stood outside the castle walls and were like “You think you are so cool, but guess what, you’re not. Good luck dying!” Then the king replied “Yeah right. How would you like to meet my best friends?”

Then out of nowhere there was a small sound of a guitar wailing really really hard behind the hills. The wailing started getting louder and louder and louder. Then out of nowhere there was this one sweet ass ninja standing on top of a huge hill. Everybody was like “Woooooooooooow!” He was wearing all black and he had this jet red guitar in his hands. Then smoke smoked over the hills like trains. But the smoke was ninjas. And the pirates saw about a billion ninjas with guitars standing on top this his huge hill. And they started to wail…

When the ninjas wailed on their guitars, the pirates started spraying diarrhea on each other and loved it. And when they wailed harder, the pirates sprayed harder. As the ninjas sauntered down the hill, the pirates’ chests and butts exploded. (They died from this.) Then the ninjas finally reached the boss pirate who was really huge. Out of nowhere the boss pirate pulled out this baby banjo and tried to fiddle with it like a little baby-baby. The ninjas were like “Yeah right.” and all the billions of ninjas surrounded the boss pirate. Half of the ninjas all combined to form the biggest guitar in the universe. The other half formed the second biggest boner in the universe. Then the huge guitar pointed right at the pirate, who was like “Holy CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP!” Before the pirate could even do anything, the super boner slapped against the guitar making the hugest wail ever to happen anywhere ever. The pirate exploded so hard that every single one of his kids he would have had exploded and all of his grandparents exploded along with his neighbors and people who he merely said “hello” to.

Then there was this huge concert at the castle. All the babes in the castle morphed into this humongous female crotch. The huge boner and crotch porked softly, while slamming into the guitar and wailing. And guess what, the king sat on top of this huge pile of gold and babes and laughed his frigg’n ass off about how stupid the pirates were.

time to bring out the pirate jokes i think

- What did the gourmet pirate put on his lunch?

- A GAAAAAAARNISH

- Did you hear about the pirate that scored 25,000 points for the Lakers?

- His name was KAREEM ABDUL-JABARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH

[radium_project]

omg! I thought I was the only one who loved pirates! and now I discover theres a place I can go to and discuss my love of pirates! HARRRR!

GET ON THE POOP DECK MEN! REPEL BOARDERS! YARR!

*pieces of eight!*

SHUT UP PARROT CAN'T YOU SEE I'M TRYING TO ARR HERE! ARRR.

P.S. Have you heard about the new Pirate movie? Its rated ARRR!

[Lamer]

I used to like Pirates. I had this BIG book of Bedtime stories and it had a story where this Pirate named Black Beard sailed the seven seas and found buried treasure with his crew.

Then my older sister told me that ninja's are heaps cooler and that Pirates are for 2 year olds and repressed cross dressers.
I don't know what that means but I wanna grow up to be a mad raver and that will never happen if i like pirates my sister said. :(

Ninja's are cool too I guess, but they don't find buried treasure.

[w0rm]

Get right on one mateys!!!!

I would like a 'slut' emoticon.

[N4TE]

Haarrr, a right chill sou wester blew from the arse of the Cape that night, when the ninja boy-band crested the hills an' tried ter thwart our cunning plot to away with the kings treasure. But as any a seafarin' man'll tell ye, not all the devils of satans hell could stand afore the might of but a single pirate and block him from the path of trasure wrongly got. Haarrrrr.

'Capn' Fukn, Capn Fukn!' sung out the cabinlad, 'I hears somethin' with me sharp cabinlad ears, I does!'
'Harrr lad, and what be it ye hear?' growled the surly sixty two foot tall bastard son of a raped mermaid, scourge of the seven seas, Captain Fukn.
'It sounds like the squalling of lasses, reckons me, Capn.' At that a hearty cheer rouse up from the band of bucaneers. "wenches!" bellowed some "sluts!" roared others. Gold and the silken folds of a wee tart's cunny? Not a pirate alive could resist the call of both bootys, and with that, the hearty men of the pirate Ship PV Gwannagitsum charged the castle.

Just then another sound blurted out, more like a death-fart from a keelhauled parrot than aught other sound of human ken, though, when the pirates looked about, there away, ter the starboard bow, stood about 40 short cabinladdiish nerds in black scruds, sporting dodgy looking samick fender stratocaster copies. With a girlish squeal, they raised their arms and thrashed out dirty distorted fifths.

"HAAARRRRRR!!!!!!!!" roared Capn Fukn, the sixty two foot tall bastard son of a raped mermaid (he got his daddys legs and his mothers eyes, they say). At that mighty baritone pirate warcry, strings snapped and the ninjas were disarmed. "horry clap" squeaked the ninjas. "dey aw gowing to kiwl us! Fwee! wun away! Ninja weetweat!"

"Too fukn right," bellowed the first mate, "Pirates, prepare to perform puffyshirt pincer ploy!" The pirates split into two groups, their puffy shirts billowin' in the gusty sou wester like a well cut jib, me hearties. The ninjas were right befuddled, an their cowardly retreat went to pieces as the pirates closed in frum both sides, belaying pins and cutlasses at the ready.

(scene ommitted due to excessive pirates-only rated violence)

"What, that's it?" said the cabinlad as he wadded out the other side of the pile of mangled blood, gore and body parts that was all that remained of the gay pansy ninjas, "I've had a harder time battening down the mainsail on a becalmed sea, I has. Those Ninjas are right pansys."
"too fukn right," agreed the first mate. "lets go relieve the king of his gold and buxum wenches of virtues indiscernable. haaar."
"HAAAARRR!!!" agreed the Captain. "'cept only the captain get ter say 'Haaar'. Ye'll walk the plank for that, ya mutinous scurvy dog."

With that, the ultra legendary pirates of the Pirate Ship Gwannagitsum did indeed git sum, an' the king, who was called Pablo, ransomed his worthless life from the sixty two foot tall bastard son of a raped mermaid, Captain Fukn, for the twenty tons of pure columbian cocaine the ninjas didn't know 'bout either which he stashed away in his castle fer the next ITM members party after party. And the buxom wenches dug it heaps, cos not only did they get free chaz, the pirates were all, ter a man, dead set fukn handsome bastard with penises not unlike a baby's forearm with an apple grasped firmly in it's fist.
The End


HHHHAAAAARRRRRRRRR!!!!!!
And I didn't cut and paste mine. Pirates own.

[forgedmc]

If you incorporate a pirate emoticon you must incorporate a ninja one as well. Obviously.

[Reffie]

I vote ninja
pirates suck

and maybe a penguin as well? ;)

[Alex Reid]

I think the question is not 'do we need a pirate emoticon' but 'what is the difference between these:'

:p :P


???

[brickup]

I just want to get straight the correct Pirate Arrr usage

I think it is definately ARRRR not HARRR....


HARR may be used as a quick HARR HARR like a laugh or in response to a good idea, where ARRR is more the greeting/general pirate scoundrelness

I agree with most of this except the quick pirate laff which should be a "ha harr" and not a "harr harr"

[sirravesalot]

I most definitely prefer a Yarrrrr to an arrrrr or a harrrr, though both can be acceptable, but lesser forms of Piratical communication

"Yaarr! - Ya-har!" can also be used as an indication of the positive or in triumph at uncovering the booty and placing ones foot on the chest.

"Yar-har-har-harr!" is more used proceeding an order or demand. eg. "YAar-har-har! all aboard the jolly roger!! Yarrrr!" This is a more "classic" pirate trait and not common amongst the other popular flavours.

Anyone seen Yellowbeard? Been one of my favourite movies since I was a wee chillun.

Captain - "Luitenant Prostitute. In charge of... discipline!"

Sailor - "A, heh heh heh ;) "

Captain - "Nail that mans feet to the deck!!"
