I refuse to post to this thread because of the risk that I may be found a pirate.

Oh crap.

We're The Great Old Ones Now

13:24 / 09.05.02

'hot headed'? YAY!

From Leonard Nimoy to Jimmy Doohan in one easy step...

pointless and uncalled for

13:33 / 09.05.02

BK - pirate
Nick - mainly ninja but I'm fairly sure has some pirate uncles
I'd probably vote apple to be ninja of the wu jin variety, not much piratey about her.

Me, I already know the answer to this one. I'm one of them fellows that pirates throw at ninjas. All I can say is that I'm good at my job, if flying through the air as a semi-sentient ship-to-land missile can be considered a job.

13:33 / 09.05.02

I agree with all of the above assessments. Now categorise me.
Arrhh. There's a little clue.

13:42 / 09.05.02

I can't believe I've been found so pirate-y.

It's not FaiAARR!

pointless and uncalled for

13:44 / 09.05.02

Biz - gotta be a ninja.

Your cunning trick will not deceive me. I have flown in the face of ninjas before, literally.

Be warned oh piratey ones there is an infiltrator in thy midst who seeks to destroy the pirate-afia from within.

We're The Great Old Ones Now

13:47 / 09.05.02

Pirate-afia?

Is that like Rafia with bad trousers and a parrot? Or rush matting which takes your money and makes love to your wife?

pointless and uncalled for

13:56 / 09.05.02

rush matting, any pirate knows that.

I claim my shiny nickel.

Wembley:Pirates can be Germans? Germans can be pirates?

There's a monument by the bay in Hamburg to this fellow:
Klaus Störtebeker (Nikolaus Storzenbecher) lived in the 14th century. His name means "a beaker at a gulp" after the practice of requiring crew members to drink a huge beaker of beer in one gulp to join crew. He operated in the North and Baltic Sea, his ship's name was the Bunte Kuh (The Colorful Cow).

Störtebeker and Godeke Michels were leading groups of freebooters (also called Vitalienbrüder or Likendeeler), who captured Danish ships during the war by order of the Germans. The freebooters were breaking the blockades and supplying besieged cities with food and ammunition, after plundering those goods from Danish merchant ships. However, the pirates soon did not only plunder Danish ships, but also the ships of England, Holland, Prussia and the German Hanse itself. The damage done by the pirates soon was so great, that 1395 Margarete from Denmark and the German Hanse decided to make peace and take appropriate measures against the pirates.

And, motherfuckers, dig this:

In October 1401, as Klaus Störtebeker was kneeling in front of the executioner on the Grasbrook (a tiny isle in the river Elbe in Hamburg, Germany), he was trying to buy freedom for himself and his men by offering a golden chain that should reach all around Hamburg. But the executioner showed no mercy. Legend says that Störtebeker made another deal: All those companions should be reprieved, who he could manage to walk by after being beheaded. This way he saved the lives of eleven pirates before the malicious executioner tripped him.

If that bastard hadn't tripped him you can bet your bottom doubloon he would've been off and away to adventures on the high seas as 'Klaus, the headless pirate!'

If you are not in the NINJA ELITE it's because of unwarranted accusations of piraticality on my part. Form an orderly queue for decapitation.

The Apple-Picker

19:04 / 09.05.02

I made no such accusation.

And, after that beheading story, I gotta give up some respect to the pirates, where before I had absolutely none.

19:14 / 09.05.02

I get to be amongst the rabble!

wembley can change in 28 days

Treehouse is hereby demoted to robot, which is even crapper than pirate.

And ninjas can be kinky too. We're better at it than pirates. We know all sophisticated stuff about pressure poinst and nerve ganglia. Pirates just got the lash.

21:14 / 09.05.02

Robot?? Cool! I've always wanted to be a robotic pirate. Now if I lose a limb, I won't have replace it with a hook or peg. Now I can mix and match.

11:39 / 10.05.02

We're The Great Old Ones Now

11:46 / 10.05.02

Ahem.

Mordant...I take significant issue with being 'piratey rabble', especially since I never so much as breathed a word about the Dread Pirate Mordant, red neckchief about her fearsome brow, canary-coloured velvet pantaloons flaring in a sprightly breeze, and a tattoo of Errol Flynn upon her scarlet-tunic'd tanned shoulder. Nor yet did I uncover the truth about her desperate duel with a French seacap'n aboard the Frigate Eloise de Feval, in which she said 'Arrr' no less than eleven times before spitting the man on her rapier and mopping the fo'castle with his gizzard and drinking all his rum. No, I was silent on this issue, and many others of such ilk, and instead portrayed this flamboyant roisterer in another mein, one of silken menace and midnight mayhem. But no more!

Chorus: For she is a Pi-irate Queen!
Yes, she is a Pirate Queen!
Behold, behold, her lustrous sheen,
She is our Piii-raaaate [high note] QUEEEEEEN!

Thank you, I'm here all week.

YNH: Ninja vampire?! The cheque is so in the mail.

Mister Disco: I beg your pardon? Control freak? Moi?

13:04 / 10.05.02

I'm a ninja, of course. Actually this is my second post in this thread. The first one was so fast, though (y'know, I being this smooth killing machine that I am), that no one even noticed it!
So I'm typing really slowly now so you all can read and bow to the superior might of Real Ultimate Power!

13:07 / 10.05.02

join the rabble, pirate

13:09 / 10.05.02

Vampires? Robots? Cats?

I thought this was strictly pirates and ninjas.

13:39 / 10.05.02

Sharks.
