AbsnasmWell, this is lame.

Via the magic of Google ads, I stumbled upon this – a dairy company called Cravendale have created a pirate sentence generator with piratey words you can drag into a box. It seems that pirates are known for frequent use of the words “pint”, “glass”, “milk”, “creamy” and “Cravendale”. Well, shiver me timbers. That I did not know. 4 years ago

New IsabellaArrrrrrrrrr ye done with talkin' pirate talk, mateys?

I’m completin’ this goal, but methinks I’ll have to keep on a-wearin’ me eyepatch. Me scurvy shingle-infested deadeye started actin’ up again yesterday. Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! 4 years ago


AbsnasmUm.... yarrrrrr!

It’s surprisingly difficult to write piratically when the moment has passed so… I’m not going to. You can’t make me. Not even if you threaten me with the plank. And though my busy day meant I didn’t find the time to join in the scurvy-ridden fun yesterday, I promise you I did celebrate TLAPD, not least by telling everyone I met yesterday of the momentous occasion. This included the friendly ladies in the sandwich shop (who gave a hearty “arrrr” in response to my own), my colleagues (who reacted, as expected, with blank incomprehension and a refusal to join in with anything so silly), and a bunch of folkies with whom I ended the day singing round a big wooden table (who responded enthusiastically but who, unfortunately, couldn’t think of any shanties we could sing in honour of the day).

Edit: Oh yeah, and I wrote my FTF list in pirate speak, which is a lot harder than I expected it to be.

Anyway, yarrrrr! 4 years ago


New IsabellaLove and hugs to a very special pirate...

gemmword sailed the seven seas with the pirates here at 43-Things a year ago, with an aquamarrrrrrrrrine avatarrrrrrrrr just for the occassion. You can read her old entries and silly pirate jokes here.

I’ve been thinking of gemmword today, as she’s been ill and unable to be on-line for some time now. I just got word tonight that she’s taken a turn for the worse. If you’d like to pass along your own love and hugs to gemmword, there’s also a goal here to do just that. Thanks, mateys. 4 years ago

You bilge-rats only wish ye

Up th’ tree, lads and

set lee braces and man

cabin boy bring me piss
bucket and ladle out
a double-ration of grog fer
all hands, except th’

Lasagna tonearm10. Arr.

Hey. Two-eyed Dick. You got a sec, buddy? I’ve just been thinking lately about this whole pirating gig we got ourselves into. When we started I was all ‘This is so radical and cool. I’m a swashbuckling iconoclast. Look at my neato boots.’ I really had romanticized this picture in my head of what being a pirate was all about. But now that we’ve been at sea for a few years, I’m getting a bit bored with it and my conscience is starting to prick at me. I mean, you know all those ships we burned and looted? That was other peoples’ stuff. Taking it is just mean and wrong. Some investor is out a pile of dough every time we pirate some of their shit. Insurance and shipping rates go up. Goods or money that were meant to be exchanged, don’t get exchanged. Leaving a seller somewhere holding the bag. Maybe with something perishable and no other buyer lined up. And I don’t know about you, but my share of the prize is really not all that much to write home about. (That is if we could actually write.)

It’s fucked up, Dick. And I don’t think I want to do it anymore. I’m thinking about buying out the rest of my contract from the captain and trying to get an apprenticeship at a pet grooming salon. Or maybe we can quit together and open up that smoothie franchise we’ve always talked about. 4 years ago

Go belowdecks, and take an abaft to Davy Jones’ locker. He keeps his tambourine in there. Scuppernongs! 4 years ago


Lasagna tonearm7. Chips ahoy!

Thar she bleats! A sail two points off the starboard beam. Hoist up the mizzenpoop, and flog the spanker. Oh, and I have typhus. 4 years ago
