International Talk Like a Pirate Day

So my friends and I are going to celebrate International Talk Like a Pirate Day and Pirate Profile Picture Week. The problem is, I don't know a lot of pirate phrases besides the ones below.
  • Ahoy
  • Matey
  • Shiver Me Timbers
  • Scalawag
  • Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
  • Arr

How can I translate some everyday phrases into pirate speak? Specifically, I might need:

"Shut up."
"Are you single?"
"Can I have your number?"
"You crushed my dreams."



Win by luck, lose by skill.

>be faceless void >mfw I have no face

"Shut yer poi howel" (authentic accent :D)
"Are ye romantically ENGAGED, lassy?"
"What be's yer cellular device number, lassie?"
"Ye crushed me dreams."



Red classic.

"In short, their absurdities are so extreme that it is painful even to quote them."

Switch FaceBitch's language to "Pirate" and you should get some translations here and there.

Relatively ancient and inactive

Alternative to talking like a pirate: Talk like Jack Sparrow. Almost as fun. And do the weird hand-thing and sway about a lot. You'll be a hit.

Why would I want to talk like a pirate when I already talk like a viking, which is more awesome? :rolleyes:

What, you say you're going to retire and then decide to play for another team? [/favre]

If you're talking to an underling or someone who you think isn't better than you, call them swab or swabbie.

Noob, "Pirate Metal" isn't even close to being a genre.
Noob, there is more than just one band that sings about pirates.
Noob, that's actually one of the worst metal bands that sing about pirates.

it's rather inconvenient actually, as it requires you to transfer it to Custom Score which might even interfere with what you're measuring. But IIRC you can also use EUDs to display it which by now could actually be somewhat convenient.

UndeadStar shouted: https://staredit.net/topic/18961/ <= wow, if there wasn't a capital letter on almost every word in the title, and a link in the signature, I may not have guesses it's an AI bot. I don't know much about map editing, but the content may even be relevant enough to be kept.
Yeah, I've noticed it, but it raised a couple of relevant questions and kept the ad to the signature so if someone were to engage with the topic it could be a net positive which is why I kept it. We're not necessarily anti-bot, just anti-spam. Thanks to Symmetry who realized my hope. :)
