Tintallë Gondor Sep 19 2021, 9:14pm Views: 282 AVAST ME HEARTIES! Why be there no "No Talk Like a Pirate Day" thread? Arrr, well do I remember the fine piratey names on this forum in years past. . .

What’s it to me, I’ll not recall so easy. Gimme your names, then, or the blade’s for your legs not mine, so ye’ll see.’ ‘Mr. Took and Mr. Brandybuck,’ said Frodo; ‘and this is Sam Gamgee. My name is Underhill.’ ‘There now!’ said Jack, putting his knife away. ‘Ye’re naught to me, ain’t ye now? I’ve no more time for ye, ‘tis the Devil’s own party aboard right now. I’ll get ye a berth or two before six bells, if I can; if not, ye’ll sleep with the rum-billies in the bilges, seein’ as yer folk’s like wee rats t’ me all the same, eh? Ain’t but it bleeds a little, so it flows red like a spring tide, we say in Bree. Arrrgh!' he added, for effect as it seemed.
