This must be true, as being downwind of you forces me to retire.

This from a man whose father was a hamster and whose mother smelt of elderberries!

As apposed to the man who bathes in elderberries and smuggles hamsters.

Quite reminds me of old days. And I see that there are just as many fools in society as there used to be.

Well I can understand that, you never left.

Yaaaar. I was once told that being upwind the enemy is the key to victory. This must be true, as being downwind of you forces me to retire.

Don't fret, mate. He always talks like that.

Yaaaaar It's like he sent me an email letting me know to call him so that he can notify me of a letter being sent on his behalf stating that I'm an idiot.

If God were to grant you half a brain extra, it would die of loneliness.

All thought is immoral. Its very essence is destruction. If you think of anything, you kill it. Nothing survives being thought of. I am afraid that you have been listening to the conversation of someone older than yourself. That is always a dangerous thing to do, and if you allow it to degenerate into a habit, you will find it absolutely fatal to any intellectual development. However, I think anything is better than high intellectual pressure. That is the most unbecoming thing there is. It makes the noses of the young girls so particularly large. I am afraid that we are beginning to be over-educated; at least everybody who is incapable of learning has taken to teaching -that is really what our enthusiasm for education has come to. Ah! that quite does for me. I haven't a word to say... Too much care was taken with our education, I am afraid. To have been well brought up is a great drawback nowadays. It shuts one out from so much.

Your banter reminds me of a pleasant outing I once had. I was at the zoo and a monkey was making kissy lips against the glass.

Great Neptune's man nipples! You were outed by a monkey!

Timbers were shivered with that thought.

Impossible says I, It's the natural instinct to peel fruit which be a might bit too painful for me.

If God were to grant you half a brain extra, it would die of loneliness.

But we digress, shouldn't we be lobbing insults, you malodorous heap of parrot droppings?

Quite,

Your banter reminds me of a pleasant outing I once had. I was at the zoo and a monkey was making kissy lips against the glass.

(I forgot to mention, the insult thread is not limited to pirate speak)

Possibles pouch & game bag in the field, snap sack in town...got to have some way to carry the take.

Sacks, duffel bags, pouches, COIN purses and satchels are in.

Prada and fanny packs are right out!

edit:

Well I fell better now.

"Pie Jesu Domine"

"Dona eis requiem."

The Temporary Autonomous Zone

If I understand this correctly then this is nothing more then standing before an officer of the law with your fingers in your ears, shouting "La la la la la, I can't hear you!"

You are helping me understand and cope with the D-Pirate indirectly as we speak. So I must thank you.

I hope I haven't fallen into the D-Pirate definition.

We're more the "I'm here to kidnap your children and sell them in slave market" set. Really, unless you meant something else entirely by having them ready in time for dinner...

Ha! No, I do not believe you are a D-Pirate, my friend. You have too much character for that.

Perhaps the D-Pirate is just in my head and no one truly falls under this term. Maybe it's better to title a pirate a D-Pirate for only the moment they judge someone for being "over the edge". It may be better to temporarily label them as such similar to revoking the man card from a fellow who is uses a man purse at the time. To be reinstated later when the feminine spirit has left. (I will feel bad if you carry a man purse, mate)

Not all of us are swinging through the rigging to a Rob Zombie soundtrack types, some pyrates are more Baroque...

Haha you got me there mate!

Scum of the earth should be taken loosely. A hero is just a hero to some but the villain to others.

You are helping me understand and cope with the D-Pirate indirectly as we speak. So I must thank you.

Now a pirate, by definition, is the scum of the earth.

I disagree. But, a lot depends upon just who precisely is doing the defining.

If, by the mere label of "pyrate" one becomes the "scum of the earth", then I grant your point but note that it is therefore meaningless.

I counter that one need not necessarily become debased for simply living outside the law.

Thank you for the counter, mate.

I would say that living outside the law would be living outside the jurisdiction of a specified society. Be it an island or neutral zone and having no government to dictate your actions.

A pirate lives by disobeying the "laws of conduct" by attacking ships and stealing what they would want. An honest dollar is hard to make and "criminal" acts would be the only other way.

It's romantic to think of a pirate as Robin Hood but that is hardly the case. Even if a thief has a giant heart and steals from the rich to give to the poor, he is still a thief. I also say the spirit of the pirate would be for ones personal gain. Otherwise you have a privateer, who is arguably the true scum. Stealing from another FOR another who is not the one in a desperate situation is just disgusting.

Uh, could I have that in pig-latin <snip>

Is that a tear? No, I think my eyes are bleeding. Good show mate.

But...but...then where's th' ship's mutt gonna drink?!??

Ye weren't suppose ter mention that...... now none O' th' women will give th' ship's mutt a kiss anymore.........

LIES! I will always win their hearts.

Well, scupper me hide and ram me into a mortar-piece! Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue is online?!

I've been looking at it for most of the day. It seems like some kind of weird alien language as most of these words have shifted meaning over time.

Really funny though. I've have been both The Admiral of the Narrow Sea and have been on the other end too. =(

"If"?

Ten thousand thundering typhoons tyke! Have you suddenly taken to studying statistics?

Yaaaar just giving a friendly benefit o' the doubt.

If the router is the issue, it's not the router itself most likely. Go to the manufacturer's website and down load/ install the latest drivers for the router and you should get back up to snuff. Once again, assuming the router is the issue.

A good choice is to go to the forum for the game and post a trouble question and see what kind of answer you get. I haven't played for nearly a year (I have issues with SOE and won't be paying them to play an on-line game again), so they might have another solution to the problem these days.

Thanks, mate, I appreciate the suggestions and I do believe you are correct. Yaaaaar!

Well she's pretty mate but that's about all we can vote about. Reality shows will judge heavily on personality and ones ability to handle stressful situations.

I vote to just go for it. No regrets!

edit:

the worst that can happen is she gets rejected by snot nosed producers whom only have interests in their own personal finances. She has nothing to loose in my opinion if she's just looking for encouragement.

If some of you are ninnies then I could control the forum for you. SEE! The friendly banter has already begun. Emphasis on friendly!

Yaaar. I could really got for a giant fat tuesday mug right about now.

Thank you...it's just that the brilliance usually arrives a moment after I hit the submit button...

Likewise.

Well it was worth a shot anyway. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed.

pirates shouldnt be this nice. =)
