'tis that time again, matey

Avast! Once again, aye, ‘tis Talk Like a Pirate Day! And this time, the organizers even have a book to teach ye how to be talkin’ like a proper pirate.

Get even more into character and get ye a pirate name. Me pirate name apparently be:

Dirty Bess Kidd - You’re the pirate everyone else wants to throw in the ocean — not to get rid of you, you understand; just to get rid of the smell. Even though you’re not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and planning make you a fine, reliable pirate. Arr!

Remind me to run the fine lad who created this quiz through with me sword.

(Thanks to Black Sam Kidd, a.k.a. Dan, for the pirate name quiz. Arr.)
