    According to the Pastafarian belief system, pirates are "absolute divine beings" and the original Pastafarians.[3] Their image as "thieves and outcasts" is misinformation spread by Christian theologians in the Middle Ages and by Hare Krishnas. Pastafarianism says that they were in fact "peace-loving explorers and spreaders of good will" who distributed candy to small children, and adds that modern pirates are in no way similar to "the fun-loving buccaneers from history." Pastafarians celebrate International Talk Like a Pirate Day on September 19.

    Further more....

    Henderson put forth the argument that "global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters are a direct effect of the shrinking numbers of pirates since the 1800s."[3] A chart accompanying the letter shows that as the number of pirates decreased, global temperatures increased.

    So I put it to you that we need more pirates or the ice caps will melt!!!

    It makes you :-k really doesn't it :)

    Sure thing, all I need is a tall ship, 50 stout men, and the stars to sail her by!


    What about digital pirates? I think there are more digital pirates than there ever were sailing pirates.

    I think this is a clear indication of the bias present in regards to pirates. Haven't people noticed that ninjas are also on the decline as of late? I propose launching an all-encompassing in-depth extreme five minute study by a panel of experts or random volunteers to look into the matter. I would think that the sheer awesomeness of ninjas would be more than enough to hold back a few silly hurricanes and some yawn-inducing earthquakes. Not to mention the extreme coolness factor that would lead to a global drop in temperatures. I rest my case.

    Ninjas and pirates have both jumped the shark (itself a recursive phrase at present). Robots are still hot.

    I would've assumed you had read a widely published recent double-blind study that found that 85% of all Japanese people are Ninjas.

    Ninjabots, specifically, are magnetically shielded to protect against EMP.
