Avast! September 19 be Talk Like a Pirate Day, so haul yer best Pirate to yer ride/tour and impress yer mates! (We be puttin’ these here fer a laugh. We be not wantin’ ye to do anythin’ that might land ye in traction.) Don’t be forgettin’ yer eyepatch for yer post-ride/tour grog, savvy? And nae stealin’, either–that be the wrong spirit fer Talk Like a Pirate Day.
Before the ride/tour — “Arrrr, where be we goin’? Which one o’ ye is the coxswain? Does every bilge rat have flat changin’ tools?”
Car back — “There be dragons.”
Car up — “Here be dragons.”
Road hazard — “Ahoy, mates! Watch yourselves o’er this ____.”
Speeding up — “Smartly, mates! This be not the time for slackin’!”
Stopping — “Avast! There be a stop sign!”
And if someone ignores ride etiquette — “Release the Kraken.”
After the ride/tour — “Pass me the grog, mates, or be keelhauled.”
