YOU ARE BLACK BART!

You are 51 %Treasurer, have 62% Seafairability, crave 61% Bloodlusting, and lust 56% in Wenchwanting!

Bartholomew Roberts, or Black Bart to your enemies and those about to be killed, you are the greatest Pirate in the history of Pirates! Seizing four hundred ships in just four short years, you struck a chord of fear into merchants and privateers alike. You have a similar number of illegitimate children running wild without knowledge of their fathers identity. Your ship and it's flag (the origin of the title given to pirate flags everywhere, Le Jolie Rouge, or Jolly Roger) sailed as if it were a ghost upon the high seas, faster and sleaker than any Royal Navy ship. The death toll you brought amongst natives and merchants (Your flag depicts you standing upon A Barbarian's Head and A Merchants Head) reached somewhere into the thousands. You excell in every area of being a pirate! I am honored you took my quiz and I bow down to you in fear, lust, admiration, and greediness! Arrrggghhhhh!!!

I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama

Okay, so you're good with treasure, but that's not really enough to call yourself a pirate. You commandeer a ship, not buy one. You force your crew to sign a pledge of allegance, you don't pay them off. Just because you're a rich plantation owner having a mid-life crisis, doesn't mean you can suddenly go rogue pirate and expect people to take you seriously. Being a pirate is about being a smelly, nasty, evil, bloodthirsty, horny bastard. You just don't make the grade. You're the equivilant of a Pirate Nerd!

Once again, I observe, it is "International Talk Like a Pirate Day." Once again, I protest. Instead, I offer this counter-endeavor: let each September 19th also celebrate a grand prose tradition of academic stature in antithesis to the vulgar, pejorative parlance of privateers: henceforth, today shall mark "International Write Like Samuel Johnson Day."

I compel you to the balanced, elegant, oft acerbic but always penetrating prose style of the great lexicographer. When your pen tires of tar and brine, dip it into this finer vintage and draw sublime sentences.

Those pan-celebrants among you determined to satisfy the requirements of both bacchanalia are encouraged to Write About Pirates Like Samuel Johnson. Sans doubt some wag has already considered it. But great art from mean subjects shall rise! How do we know but one of the ghostly, sublime ships in a Turner masterpiece is not in itself a pirate vessel?

Talk like a pirate day!

But thanks to Johnny Depp, talking like a pirate = talking like Keith Richards, doesn't it?

That gave me a headache.

My reality and yours are quite different.
