In case ye be not knowin’ it, ’tis Talk Like A Pirate Day. The honorable Wil Wheaton has posted himself one of them weblog entries in honor of tha celebration.
So, shorten yer mizzenmast and pander ta yer bilgewater, folks; foreshorten the yardarm and polish yer sideiron! Learn ta talk like a pirate yerself, and join the “festivities”, missy! Land Ho!
Or something… I don’t do that very well…
So let me try again, what I’m trying to say is
Hey, dudes, come on and get with it today! Talk like a pirate, with all the “arrs”, “landlubbers”, and “swab the decks” you can get your hands on! Really, it’s just plain, good old-fashioned fun. And as much as I’d like to use the English to Pirate translator right now, it appears to be overwhelmed by the load at the moment.
Not much change there, it came out as:
The pirate speaks,”Hey, dudes, come on and get with it today! Talk like a pirate, with all t'”arrs”, “landlubbers”, and “swab t’decks” you can get your hands on! Really, it’s just plain, good old-fashioned fun. And as much as I’d liket’use t’Englisht’Pirate translator starboard now, it appearst’be overwhelmed by t’load at t’moment.”
