Charity Sweetlove Posted June 11, 2003 Posted June 11, 2003 I found this one on the back of a pin I had bought many many moons ago: No Prey, No Pay. Then there's the Pirate's guild motto of: It was sinking when I got there
Charity Sweetlove Posted June 11, 2003 Posted June 11, 2003 *chuckles* a humorous one perhaps: "GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY PARROT!"
Jamaica Rose Posted June 13, 2003 Posted June 13, 2003 I found this one on the back of a pin I had bought many many moons ago:No Prey, No Pay. On the BACK? of the pin? It doesn't do much good there, does it? "No Prey, No Pay" is an old saying of pirates. I like the more updated variation I use on buttons (proudly stolen ... er ... acquired from Captain Siobhan, aka Leigh Ann Hussey, author of the song "The Red Queen", who had a coin with the sayin on it): "Saint Errol of Flynn ... Prey for Us."

Pirate Lass Suliel Posted June 14, 2003 Posted June 14, 2003 Heh, these are good. I like the Economic Redistributionist one...:) Um...cant' really think of any, not any reasonable ones anyhow. As for unreasonable, well... "Meet Roger. He doesn't like you." Next to a Jolly Roger. THen there's always the question, who is roger and why is he so jolly? Ach, well, I'll think on it, I'm sure to come up with something, these certainly are amusing ideas.
Captain Luigi Posted June 14, 2003 Posted June 14, 2003 Capt. Westyn Elizabeth Roberts "Pirates do it with their boots on"?I like this one. Tried it once even.
Capt. Westyn Elizabeth Roberts Posted June 16, 2003 Posted June 16, 2003 Why, many thanks, Captain Luigi! Of course, what fun would "it" be without thigh-high boots? For example: Even today's modern strippers have gotten the hang of dancing in thigh-high boots! They draw attention to...ahem...a certain part of your body. Especially if that's all you're wearing! Or, for another bumper sticker idea, use the "We don't dial 911", and put a Jolly Roger (Jolie Rouge) on the sticker. New twist on an old favorite. Cheers! Capt. WE Roberts "I shall uphold my indignity with the utmost dignity befitting a person of my undignified station."
Charity Sweetlove Posted June 24, 2003 Posted June 24, 2003 how about a little treasure chest that's got those wiggly lines around it that indicate movement and then the phrase: Shake yer booty! the classic "X marks the spot"
Capt. Westyn Elizabeth Roberts Posted June 25, 2003 Posted June 25, 2003 "Back off and live." Capt. WE Roberts "I shall uphold my indignity with the utmost dignity befitting a person of my undignified station."
Captain Luigi Posted June 29, 2003 Posted June 29, 2003 How about "get off my aft". Or better yet I think I will go out and the speed signs in my nieghborhood to "Knots Per Hour" hehehhe
Captain Sage Posted July 4, 2003 Posted July 4, 2003 How about, "If you can raid this, thank a pirate." or "Muskets don't kill people, musket balls do." or "Practice gun control- use your cutlass!" or "Lead, follow, or get hung from the jib." or "Back off, or I'll flick a cannonball through your windshield." or "You smell. Is your bilge pump broken?" or "Didn't Sal Magundi pitch for the Dodgers back in the 40's?" Happy 4th! Captain Sage Captain Sage Visit The Pirate's Realm and Blackbeard's Realm
PirateMunkee Posted July 15, 2003 Posted July 15, 2003 Silver polish for your sword...$3.50 Ammo for your flintlock...$10.50 Wathcing villagers run in unholy terror as you ramsack their port...priceless
BatSpell Posted July 16, 2003 Posted July 16, 2003 How about: "Arrg, Here There Be Pyrates!" "Honk If Yer Scervy" (with symbol on each side) "When Yer Freebooting, It's Sink Or Swim!" "This Grog's For You!" Pause My Friend, As You Pass By. -As You Are, So Once Was I. -As I Am, So Shall You Be. -Prepare You Then, To Follow Me. (written on a gravestone)
Rumba Rue Posted July 16, 2003 Posted July 16, 2003 I'm surprised that no one has come up with this one yet. Well I will. 'Another day, another dubloon' RumbaRue **Mind like a steel trap, rusty and illegal in 37 states**
PirateMunkee Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 I Owe I owe So It's off to pillage and plunder I go. Things to do today...Rape...Pillage...Plunder How about one of those Jesus Fishes with an eypatch, big teeth and a fin?
Mad Maudlin McCrumb Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 Man, I would put that on my car! Of course we do with uor boots on, we get better traction that way! "You have a woman's skin, m'lord! I'll wager that hides never been rubbed with salt and flayed off to make stockin's for a pirates best cabin boy!"
Grayse MacRoth Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 I was thinking of having some bumper stickers made at some point to promote pyracy.com - what should they say?"I'd rather be pillaging." any other ideas? ~new here and a bit shy, but wanted to interject~ As a pirateMom and driving my pirateMinivan, I find short and sweet catches my eye better than something longwinded. You have to wait for a light to read the long ones! If you are looking to promote the site, you might consider something along the lines of: I got pillaged at pyracy.com! Just my two dubloons - Grayse
Mad Maudlin McCrumb Posted July 18, 2003 Posted July 18, 2003 Quoth Reginald McCrumb; "Once you've had a pirate, you're hooked!" Or "If they outlaw guns, can I use my cutlass?" "You have a woman's skin, m'lord! I'll wager that hides never been rubbed with salt and flayed off to make stockin's for a pirates best cabin boy!"
