Arcanum_V Posted September 19, 2005 Author Share Posted September 19, 2005 Why can't we have a Talk Like A Ninja Day?←'Cuz ninjitsu is the art of invisibility and stealth and all that kind of stuff. Ninjas don't need to talk — they let their shuriken do the talking for them! ::hijack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueNinja Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 The sad thing is that I walked into my Biology class this morning, and said "Ahoy, mateys! Today be National Talk Like a Pirate Day!" and one of the women gave me this annoyed look and asked, "Are you making up holidays for no reason?"She was looking at a web news page (Yahoo, I think) that had up it was National Talk Like a Pirate Day. ::glare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnakeEyes Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Y'know, in preparation for yesterday, I trawled around my local high street (Including WH Smiths, HMV, MVC and other big entertainment stores), and not a single one had Muppets Treasure Island, Cutthroat Island, or Captain Blood (or anything with Errol Flynn for that matter). I was severely disappointed, although I managed to get my grubby hands on the last copy of Hook in town. Mwahahah! At first I thought it was because they had sold out because of TLaPD, but they didn't even have place markers set out for them.The gits!And then I tried to go out, but I had to stay in all day and wait for the builders to come round and finish my bleedin' shower. (My landlord hasn't a clue about using trustworthy builders). They started last tuesday, and today they put the new bathroom door up. All it needed was a tiny bit of re-tiling and a new door.So I stormed around limping yelling YARRGH! Every so often to make me feel better.Anywho, ramble aside, my point is that Talk Like a Pirate Day is not well enough recognised in britain (although it did get on the radio).Next year I intend to go whole hog. I'm already preparing.Cheers,SnakeEyesOh, and how 'bout Talk Like A Cowboy Ninja Pirate Day? Fortell impending doom, drink rum and rustle cows all in one day! It's perfect! Especially the rum! ::idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
