Pirates?

it's weird that pirates would go from shore to shore looking for buried treasure when the real treasure was in the friendships they were making

Only on ARRRRfter HouAARRRRSS.

That's a bit of a tearjerker OP. Who knows, maybe pirates were just a bunch of misunderstood softies. Breaks my heart to see them portrayed as rum swilling rapists and looters.

Originally by Jack Handey: "It's funny that pirates were always going around searching for treasure, and they never realized that the real treasure was the fond memories they were creating."

If you like that, lots more of that kind of that thing from him:

For hilarity : Stick your hand in your mouth and say "I was born in a pirate ship".

(I learnt that years ago from a scurvy sea-dog in a pub called the Scumm Bar.)
