Pirates!
Anyways, I just woke up from the craziest dream. Long story short I was being chased by pirates who were trying to kill me for some reason (it wasn't really made clear) and fortunately I woke up before they caught me (Escaped in a dinghy )
Then I had a thought. I've decided that pirates are not scary. In fact, I find them rather humorous and quite lovable. Here's a 10 item list of why I believe so:
1. Anyone who is willing to keep an annoying, overpriced bird on their shoulder, which WILL use said shoulder as a toilet is A-Ok in my book.
2. Their funny little sayings i.e. - avast, yargh! shiver me timbers!
3. Eye patches...'nuff said.
4. Their afinity for sea shanties
5. Swag.
6. Skulls and crossbones.
7. Maps with curvy little dotted lines and "x's"
8. Lower extremities that have been replaced with wood, preferably coated in some sort of waterproof lacquer. (I hear wax and tar made good water proofing)
9. Funny nicknames. There's always one pirate aboard ship who's name is along the lines of "Soggy-Pants Pete" or "Neck Hackin' Jack"
10. That cool half-naked lady statue strapped to the front of their pirate ships.
Now I'm going back to bed
