Perhaps it was just the usual flurry of televised bad news and the seemingly never-ending baffling behavior by the gentleman at the helm of our foundering ship of state that caused me to consider forgoing my usual morning cup of coffee in favor of a way before noon tankard of grog. But then I remembered it’s Talk Like a Pirate Day! So before the sun sets over the yardarm, let us once again review my own personal code of buccaneer decorum so that you’ll be better equipped to navigate these troubling tides as you make way for safe harbor and happy hour.
- Always put your best peg-leg forward.
- Remember to press your pantaloons.
- Compliment the fit and finish of your shipmate’s puffy shirt.
- Never fly your Jolly Roger above the Stars and Stripes.
- Buy your crew the next round of Grog.
- Extend your hook to one in need.
- Never wear more than one eye patch while steering the ship.
- Share your booty with the less fortunate.
- And always let your parrot have the last word!
Included below are a few of our favorite shanties guaranteed to woo any wench or prancing privateer.
