What, like we should wander around bitching about IP all day and talk about how we're sticking it to the man by Torrenting a site-rip of MILF Hunter and the complete Linkin Park discography?

By BitComet-ing the whole Pirates of the Caribbean series, I'm really sticking to The Man, it's not theft if they're rich, also, ARRR!

(hope that covers both bases)

So matey, a pirate walks into a barrrr and he's got a steering wheel down his pants. The bartender gives him a look and asks:
"Excuse me, sir, but do you realize that you have a steering wheel down your pants?"

T' pirate replies:
"Arrrrr. I know! It is driving me nuts!"

What about space pirates? Are they included? Do they have some kind of subdialect, to the effect of:

"Fire up the wormhole generator and swab the fusion reactor deck, sailor."
"Aye, aye, Captain!"

Does anyone know if there is an official instituion for proper pirate grammar?
English has MLA, Spanish has La Academia Royal, but are there any pirate language authorities?

Please, no one give me a tactless post about how pirates didn't care for grammar, spelling, or syntax. To those who would post such a monstrostiy, I say: "Duh!" preempitvely. I want a more creative response.;)
