Yarrr! This Thursday, Sept. 19 be ye olde Talk Like a Piratical Scurvy Knave Day!
And yon quiz tells me I be “The Captain!” Arrgh! Swab some decks, someone!
My anchor is down and I am not sailing anywhere. I am just trying to figger out how customers will react when I answer their call in pirate...
“Get down and swab the decks, ye scurvy dogs, before I swab it with your mangy beards. Arrr.”
Its all in the delivery...
Yeah, that’s the guy, the chief mate, who wasn’t happy with the new restrictions on pirating. So, Captain Kidd, who was trying to obey the new laws, killed him and was hung for murder. Then they hung Captain Kidd’s body in a cage in London as an example of what they do to pirates.

You are The Quartermaster
You, me hearty, are a man or woman of action! And what action it is! Gruesome, awful, delightful action. You mete out punishment to friend and foe alike – well, mostly to foe, because your burning inner rage isn’t likely to draw you a whole lot of the former. Still, though you may be what today is called “high maintenance” and in the past was called “bat-shit crazy,” the crew likes to have you around because in a pinch your maniacal combat prowess may be the only thing that saves them from Jack Ketch. When not in a pinch, the rest of the crew will goad you into berserker mode because it’s just kind of fun to watch. So you provide a double service – doling out discipline AND entertainment.
