Shiver me timbers! Of course I couldn’t let a day like this pass me by. What day, you say?
Aaarrrrr, that would be International Talk Like a Pirate Day. What else, ya landlubbers? It gives me a bit of a chance to throw out me favorite joke of all time. Avast me hearties, and listen well.
A pirate walks into a bar with a boat wheel sticking out of his pants. The landlubbin’ bartender looks at him for a moment, then asks, “What’s with the boat wheel?”
The pirate looks at him with a steely gaze, then says,
“Aaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrr, it’s drivin’ me nuts.”
And that, me friends, is a great pirate joke. And if you don’t like it, a lowly bilge rat with a cold, dead heart you must be. So spread the word! Call your handsome lads, your buxom beauties, and talk like a pirate. And if you refuse, may god have mercy on your soul.
