Aye.... n' Iron Roger Vane be a worthy name fer an honerable ol' sea dog like yerself.

What the hell am I reading? Did a bunch of wannabe political emo strategists get their panties in a bundle, and now I feel like I'm at a gamefaqs forum?

Sell crazy someplace else. Apparantly we're all stocked up.

Arrrr Cap'n, there be a stowaway on board. Oi says we claps 'im in irons, then we keel-haul the blaggard, arrrr....

This is an abhorrent statement. The word "fag" is derived from "faggot" (a small sheaf of combustible straw) which during the times of the Spanish Inquisition (and other times when humans were burned at the stake) was tossed on the wood "to get things going".

Any use of repulsive pejoratives such as these should be met immediately with banishment. The use of those words is a hate crime.

or fag could mean cigarette depends where you are

This is an abhorrent statement, little whip. Even in "jest". The word "fag" is derived from "faggot" (a small sheaf of combustible straw) which during the times of the Spanish Inquisition (and other times when humans were burned at the stake) was tossed on the wood "to get things going".

Any use of repulsive pejoratives such as these should be met immediately with banishment. The use of those words is a hate crime.

That wasn't what was meant in the quoted comment....that much is clear. The English do use the word for a cigarette, but that, incidently, derives from the same word. Can't "stuff" like that be edited off of blocked? There's a difference between freedom of speach and hateful speech, and not to put too fine an edge on it, Rick, little whip exceeded it.

Arrgg, I agree with Fuzzy. TO the Briny Deep!

That be wot I loves 'bout a free trade market... ye don' 'ave ter come in our store when thars others 'ere abouts. Mind ye, tho, dunno ye be g'wen t' find any place sellin' sanity.



Aye, n' that's juss wot us'll do if'n 'e be speakin' anyfink more derogat'ry 'bout tha pirate way o' life..... juss baint be 'ceptable fer 'im t' be jawin' agin tha pirates code of 'oner.

Apart from TheGuyPC, who originally had an axe to grind, nobody else who has participated in this thread has said or taken anything too seriously. Even TheGuyPc lightened up in the end, so how about we leave it as being the fun thread it has become since and just leave any 'questionable' stuff from 50 pages back where it belongs.

BTW, it's nice to see you've paid us a visit... please do come back again if you'd like to join in some lighthearted fun... er, crazy stuff.

'Ere, wot be ye doin'... agreein' wiv tha establishment? He be right n' all that, but ye 'aves ter 'ave pride in yer pirate tadishuns n' disagree a bit afore ye concedes it be tha best fing fer tha blaggard. I mean, mate Fuzzy be orright fer a 'stablishment feller, but ye got ter put up a bit o' pirate resistance t' 'oner tha code all proper like.

We gots to have some fun too! This be a long voyage.

And anuvver fing... 'ave anybody see'd me lil ET mate, Gorg???

Last time I seed 'im, 'e wur g'wen t' Stardock cos e' 'eard 'em 'ad a female frum 'e's 'ome planet, n' e needed 'eself a mate. Fing wos, I says to 'im, like, ye don' need t' be g'wen all tha way thar, cos us'll git one o' tha wenches n' cover 'er all o'er in gray/green body paint fer 'e.

"Nah, not fer me," says Gorg: "I 'aves ter go see if'n me 'omeworld lass be orright o'er thar wiv them Stardockians... besides, tha third breast be real 'portant to I!!!", e' said.

That whar tha last I see'd of 'im!!! I shure 'opes 'e be orright! I mean t'weren't worth puttin' eself in danger fer a third breast, now were it!

Now this 'ere be a warnin' t' ye folks at Stardock! Us'll 'ave our mate, Gorg, back 'ere wiv us un'armed...no dissections or anal probes 'ave better bin done or us'll come all cannons ablazin'.

Aarrghh! That us 'ave... but us 'aves ter put up that we be doin' of it fer our own selves n' not fer tha guv'ners mens.

What's even worse? You feel no shame regarding your hateful words. I saw nothing "lighthearted" about your words. Since you seem preoccupied with others' orientation, mine is hetero. I do hope that alleviates your fear. Seek help.

Dr Jo - little-whip...

We're s'pposed t' be on tha Twisted Sister, not a trawler, so fer fair winds sake, let's not be a trawlin' ghosts o' the past frum Davy Jones' locker.



I user ter be a bi-sexual Engishman...liked ter 'ave it twice a night. Now gravity be me wurst enemy...age n' gravity. Now it be bi-annual - if'n I can git me peg leg orf tha deck n' inta me 'ammock.

Oh, and Dr Jo, while we're on the politically correct theme, there were references to Froggies (French persons),and we have several French members here, but nobody took exception to those references. They were intended in fun and taken as such.

In the real world, I suppose you could call those comments racial slurs, but this has been a fun thread for ages and no ill was/is intended by the tongue in cheek that abounds here. In fact, we've taken several tongue in cheek pot shots at political correctness because, in many cases, it is downright ridiculous and petty, to put it mildly.

As for a crime of hate, little-whip is no more guilty of it than you or I. She made a comment that was in context with the ongoing conversation at the time. Nobody complained about it at the time, not even the person it was directed towards, so it should be left to die a natural death, OK!

I defnuttly gree wuv yer' cap'm Starkers ser !! Dem dozy landlubbers 'iv no right ter a bit of fun, if they carn't at least laff at 'emselves, so they be try ter be serius' and flop misrabble-like ..

Actually, lil-whip... I see'd nought wrong wiv "commie loving pinko fag" I wur under tha impreshun it wur a 'former' Soviet Union cigarette, combined wiv aphrodizzyac n' rolled in pink paper. Bugger all wrong wiv that!

Guess now it be Russia o'er thar, I reckuns 'em 'd only make 'em in Communist China n' N Korea.... bein' they still be commies, I guess!
