It does exactly what it says on the thread title, yarr, so it does.

It be the day to talk like a pirate, so shiver yer timbers an’ those o’ yer ship-mates otherwise I’ll keel-haul yer sorry land lubbing arse.
Do pirates say ‘arse’? Probably not.
Yarr!
Have fun.
Yarr?
While I’m here, get your pirate name:

Mine is Pirate Harley the Cash-Strapped, which be fair accurate, so it be.
Perhaps ‘hide’ would be a more piratey word to substitute for arse?

Yarr! We pirates be saying ‘buttocks’ not arse.

‘Buttocks’? That be trader talk on my briney, be ye a spy?
Damn!
I’m home from work and missed it!
And I’ve been saving a clip-on pigeon so I could be an urban pirate . . . “Arrrr! You talkin’ to ME?!?”
That’s part of the fun of it though – you don’t only have to wait for September 19th every year – you can make every day Talk Like A Pirate Day! 🙂
I think this would be particularly effective when you work in a call centre:
“Yarr! Ye be speaking to Dragonbear, so ye be, how can I be swabbin’ yer deck this fine af’noon?”
