talk like a ship hijacker day

[rone]

All i can say on the subject is, "Avast."  Which, if you look it up, means "stop".

I wonder why popular culture embraces thieves, assassins, and slavers (pirates, ninjas, and pimps) and raises them to a level of cool.

> I'd embrace Talk Like a Scot or Talk Like a Hillbilly day with the same enthusiasm.

January 27 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Burns) and the Saturday after November 9 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sadie_Hawkins_Day), respectively.

Before you ask, I already know about Talk Like an Irishman day, too.

For some reason, the internet trendsetters are not latching onto these things.
