About three years ago I was working a one day temp job and on my break I found a newspaper laying in the break room. I hadn't opened one in a long time and I didn't have anything better to do, so I flipped through it. It really reminded me of why I held newspapers in general in such low esteem - everything in it was bland and one dimensional. Especially sad was the comics page, which had always been pretty bad, even when I was a child, although it had definitely gotten worse since the few bright spots of my youth had retired.
But there was one thing of note there: the Family Circus. And the reason why it was noteable was that its punchline was that Billy was wearing an eye patch, pretending to be a pirate and saying "YAARRR!" to his mom. And the reason why that was noteable to me was this:
If even the Family Circus is on on your joke, your joke is dead.
And yet - somehow - for some unfathomable reason that joke which is so obvious and repetitive and inoffensive that even your tamest Grandfather has mastered it's telling - still persists. Ugh.

I'm with kafziel. Call me a curmudgeon, but talk like a pirate day is stupid. It's just another obnoxious excuse for idiots who have nothing better to do to waste everybody's time with annoying and illogical and frankly unhistorical caricatures of so-called 'pirates.' Never mind that real pirates in history were exciting in their own right, or that their lives were more dangerous and oft-times unjust than we'd like to imagine; no, this annoying and grating meme continues to live on, and for an entire day I'll have to endure listening to people to do this bad imitation of a bad imitation that is 'talking like a pirate.' If there is one thing I can be thankful for – one faint touch of silver on the sad cloud of grief that is this horrid day – it's that International Talk Like A Pirate day only happens once a yeaAAARRRRRRR SHIVER ME TIMBERS, MATEY, SCUPPER THE DECKS AND HOIST THE MAINSAIL, WE'RE TAKIN' YONDER SCHOONER AND THERE'LL BE NO PRISONERS, I TELL YE

One of the reasons I like English so much is that is has so many cool accents and dialects; the closest we could ever come to the way a pirate speaks would be North German / Plattdeutsch, and that may be one of the wussiest dialects known to man. "Yo-ho und 'ne Buddel voll Rum, Alder, nech?"

We (SheMulp and I) attempted to celebrate, but we merely stole a bottle of wine cooler from our neighbor and watched the Angela Lansbury version of the Pirates of Penzance. I guess that's marginally piratical.

By the way, they skipped the 2nd verse of the Modern Major General song in that version, and, being the sort of person who's been obsessed with that sort of thing, that sort of thing being Gilbert and Sullivan related, this burns me more than the inclusion of "My Eyes Are Fully Open" from Ruddigore..

I will not say as school-boys do to bullies, – Take some one of your own size; don’t pommel me! No, ye’ve knocked me down, and I am up again; but ye have run and hidden. Come forth from behind your cotton bags! I have no long gun to reach ye. Come, Ahab’s compliments to ye; come and see if ye can swerve me. Swerve me? Ye cannot swerve me, else ye swerve yourselves! Man has ye there. Swerve me? The path to my fixed purpose is laid with iron rails, whereon my soul is grooved to run. Over unsounded gorges, through the rifled hearts of mountains, under torrents’ beds, unerringly I rush! Naught’s an obstacle, naught’s an angle to the iron way!

We think that the copyright needs to be changed to fit the current climate of usage and taken the distribution platform into respect. The opposite side thinks that they need to close the internet down so they won't lose control.
I won't say I have the best answer for how the copyright should work - but a creative commons license is better than what we usually have today. But my personal opinion (that is not always the opinion of all of us behind the bay) is that copyright is not needed when it comes to personal use.

Double, Triple, Quadruple, Pentuple, Sextuple, Octuple. Will this tired old meme never die? It was only mildly funny until about 2004. Now it's just tired.
I remember a couple of years ago, I went into a Starbucks for a cup of coffee, I was really broke and saved up for a month to be able to afford a serious coffee. When I went in, the clerk was greeting each customer by bellowing "Arr, top o the morning to ya!" at the top of his lungs. I think he was confused that it was talk like a leprechaun day. Some customers were actually fleeing rather than buying their coffee. This shop was usually full at that time of day, but that day, nobody was staying around to listen to the idiot screaming at customers, the place was empty. Even the other baristas were looking at him like he was insane. I was planning on sitting there and enjoying my coffee, but I had to flee as well.
So I called Starbucks customer service. I asked the agent if Starbucks was officially observing talk like a pirate day. He said there's no such thing. I told him of the internet meme and how the clerk was chasing away customers with his screaming. He got pretty angry about the clerk's behavior and apologized for the stupidity by sending me a $5 Starbucks card. He promised to call the store immediately and tell the guy to knock it off.
Mission accomplished. One small corner of the world was freed from stupidity for a few hours. Go ye and do likewise.
