Talk like a pirate day

[hellziggy]

LJ has done some stuff for Talk Like a Pirate Day. I'm lazy and don't feel like writing about it, so I shall completely and blatantly steal entrenous88's post about it:

Okay, it is worth switching over to Horizon just for today to see the LJ logo turned into what sort of looks like a pirate ship.

And the leeetle info-user avatars are wearing eyepatches! And Frank the Goat has a pegleg and is wearing pirate boots!

Arrrrr!

E.T.A. And and and your user name is your pirate name! Community maintainers are Captains, and members are listed as Crew! (They missed out in not listing those watching as "Stowaways", imo).

PLUS when you edit your LJ entry? It says "Edit Captain's Log". And Mateys! Mutual Mates! Hahahahahaha! Best Pirate Day EVER!

After all, pirates are all about stealing, right?

Aaarrrrr! Avast! and all that other piratey crap!!!!

Hee! Yes, pirates are all about the stealing, or booty? Or something like that. Yar.

the wee eyepatches on the userinfo are so cute.

When I posted to my journal this morning and I saw the update button had been changed to Captain's Log, I immediately thought Stardate? Kirk? Just shows what sort of geek I am.

It is the logical assumption, Captain.

Wait, how do I see all this cool stuff?

[hellziggy.livejournal.com]

I dunno! Didn't you see the part where I said I pirated all that info from entrenous88?

[kniblet.livejournal.com]

Isn't enough that I commented on your post? Did you want me to read it, too?

Some people can be so demanding.

[hellziggy.livejournal.com]

Of course you have to read it! You are my minion, remember?

Dammit, foiled again!

I don't suppose there's any way to retract that, is there?

[hellziggy.livejournal.com]

You can buy your way out of it for a significant sum of money. *grin*
There's also a loophole that no one has figured out...

[kniblet.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm, still paying for the orange kitchen.

Could it have something to do with the fact that you don't actually rule the world yet?

[hellziggy.livejournal.com]

I don't?
Damn.
Yup, that's it.

In the meantime you may have my services for a small fee. Negotiable, of course.
