Arr! It be Talk Like A Pirate Day - 2015!


Avast! Talk Like a Pirate Day be here again! 

September 19th was dubbed "International Talk Like a Pirate Day" by two guys, John Baur and Mark Summers. The internet embraced the idea, and 9/19 has become a day to celebrate the freedom and fun loving that pirates symbolize. So grab a bottle of rum!

Everyone loves pirates...or at least you can't get away from being inundated with images and stories of them.


So I've trolled the interwebs for the best pirate content old and new and here be a start!

You are a pirate!"
