Timbers: as of now, officially shivered
Avast! It be International Talk Like a Pirate Day September 19th! Ye can be bettin’ yer last doubloon that I’ll be exercisin’ me piratical diction in class this mornin’ (though I’ll have to revert to landlubber-speak eventually, given that it would take a long time to explain résumés and application letters while in full Geoffrey Rush mode). Here’s hopin’ my exclamation of “YAARRRR” will be wakin’ up the back row. Ye can’t be shieldin’ yerself from me fury with yer 19-inch iMac screens, ye mutinous rats!
So are ye with me, scurvy knaves in the blogosphere? Let’s see some bloggin’ like a pirate… or else to the yardarm with ye!
EDIT: I got about 80% of them to yell “YAARRRR.” Not a bad result.
