Wonder if I can pull this off at work.

[SharkTums]

Hmmm, that's the date of our big Special Olympics Golf Tournament....I'm going to talk to my boss about pirate theming it!

[DenDen]

I can imagine the ensued wackiness and mayhem on this forum on the 19th. LOL

[Wes]

I wish it was Drink Like A Pirate Day.

[deathmole]

^ It can be, just take a day of and get some crates in!

 

Aggghhh me matey's, be a truly brilliant topic for ye to be attempting at work, act like ye be a fool whilst flogging yer slaves - arghhhh.

 

Man, wtf? :shock:

[Wes]

^ A real pirate would drink at work.

[FlyingScooter]

hmmm, Talk, Drink and act like a Pirate.

Lol, every topic is going to be hijacked for sure.

Sounds like an avatar contest in waiting.

[DenDen]

hmmm, this gives me an idea... "Talk Elizabethan Day".

 

Thou art going to rideth thy favorite coaster to rattle thy bosom.

[FlyingScooter]

^sweet idea.

[Jonathan]

The student body president here at NC State is a pirate.

 

No joke. Due to a loophole in the elections system, he was able to actually place his name on the ballot as "The Pirate Captain".

I voted for him.

[dandaman]

I say our next two avatar contests are: 1. Pirate-themed, and 2. Elizabethan theme parks-themed (yeah, I know. WTF).

[PhishyBrewer]

I think the fact that there is a book out on how to be a pirate is funny.

 

 

I'm in, I'll do it. Of course... I'll probably get sent out for a drug test.

 

It could make a good video

[jumbach]

"November eight zero niner eight seven Tango, with you level at one two thousand. Request vectors to LGB via Victor one two five. Information Zulu."

 

"Roger, niner eight seven Tango, descend and maintain seven thousand, reduce airspeed to one eight zero knots. Turn right heading one niner zero, expect vectors to runway one six via one two five. Cleared for ILS approach. Call at Final Approach Fix."

 

Oops, sorry, that's "Talk Like a Pilot" day. That's a different holiday.

[BiCoastal Kid]

My teachers are going to SLAUGHTER me tomorrow!

[SLUSHIE]
