#1 out of 365


The day of all days has come upon us. Once per year all of humanity aligns as one to honor its greatest members: pirates. Yep, its international talk like a pirate day. So if you see someone stumbling about on a peg leg, talking to a parrot whilst hoisting aloft a flagon of rum, you can give them a knowing smile and a hearty "Yarrrrrr!!!"

If you're not sure how to sharpen your cutlass or swab the poopdeck, go to the Official TLaPD Site. The links section is killer.

i've got it figured out...pirate beats everything, EXCEPT shark, but shark loses to clown.

My god man, you just don't get it.

Pirate beats everything! Sure, individual pirates have their weaknesses (read--crocodile with alarm clock in belly), but you must understand that as a whole, Pirates are undefeatable.

The whole walking the plank thing isn't about pirates being eaten by sharks. Naw, its about pirates eventually drowning or dying from starvation. They CAN survive for months adrift at sea, hooking an occasional fish and eating it raw...but they cannot live without their grog.

"its about pirates eventually drowning"

So water beats Pirate? Pansies.

Perhaps you forgot your first lesson as a ninja--water erodes mountains. Ninjas can't even swim! They have to use bamboo reeds to breath underwater.

Silly Pirate. You have no idea what the ninja's first lesson is. It's 'You do not talk abou..." nevermind.

Water still beats pirates sucker. Even if ninja's have to use bamboo, we still win.

wood does have a point, ned. in traditional rosching, water loses to everything except fire, making it quite a pansy throw. however, if it can effectively defeat pirates, pirate might just be a worse throw. however, the throw of pirate riding a flying flaming shark still defeats alien space station (which also loses to water, actually, but beats clown and bamboo shaft).
