    Am I allowed act like Johnny Depp in "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" and vaguely drunkenly stagger about the place and say stuff like, "But you *have* heard of me" and "I'll never hear the end of this" ? Or does it have to be "arrr Jim me lad arrrrrr ARRRRRRR"

    Top Ten Pickup lines for use on International Talk Like a Pirate Day

    (The founders came up with these in an effort to interest Dave Letterman - in TLAPD. His staff liked 'em, but alas, his show is "dark" the week of Sept. 19.)

    All likely wenches can convert the following to chat up swashbuckling adventurers of the manly persuasion.

    10. Avast, me proud beauty! Wanna know why my Roger is so Jolly?

    9. Have ya ever met a man with a real yardarm?

    8. Come on up and see me urchins.

    7. Yes, that is a hornpipe in my pocket and I am happy to see you.

    6. I'd love to drop anchor in your lagoon.

    5. Pardon me, but would ya mind if fired me cannon through your porthole?

    4. How'd you like to scrape the barnacles off of me rudder?

    3. Ya know, darlin’, I’m 97 percent chum free.

    2. Well blow me down?

    And the number one pickup line for use on International Talk Like a Pirate Day is …

    1. Prepare to be boarded. :eek:


    Bonus pickup lines (when the ones above don't work, as they often won't)

    They don’t call me Long John because my head is so big.

    You’re drinking a Salty Dog? How’d you like to try the real thing?

    Wanna shiver me timbers?

    I’ve sailed the seven seas, and you’re the sleekest schooner I’ve ever sighted.

    Brwaack! Polly want a cracker? … Oh, wait. That’s for Talk Like a PARROT Day.

    That’s the finest pirate booty I’ve ever laid eyes on.

    Let's get together and haul some keel.

    That’s some treasure chest you’ve got there.

    Interesting fact the orginal world peace day was due for Sept 11th 2001. There was to be a big ceremony near TWC at 11.30. A few hours later, and it would have been the most successful terrosist attack ever, as all the UN was going to be there.
    Just so you know.
