Default Talk like a pirate day

September 19 is International Talk Like a Pirate Day. Not only should
all posts be in Pirate, but discussions with photography clients and
other photographers should be in Pirate as well.

A model should be addressed as "Ye saucy wench" or, if the model is
male, as "Ye scurvy scum." Photographers with published work should be
addressed as "Cap'n," while photographers at your same level of
experience should be addressed as "Matey." Trolls should be addressed
using the most vile Pirate talk possible. People who do not have
cameras who claim to be experts on photography, for example, should be
addressed as "Landlubber."

Aye, though he may be only a landlubber and "dog," though it be an
insult, might be too affectionate. "Mutinous swine," "maggot," "squid"
and "urchin" are as good as grog at night on the North Sea.

"Privateer" be fightin' words reserved for spammers.

Most cerrrtainly not!
A privateer, for example, a certain Sir Francis Drake, is often
a very honorable person.

A privateer basically outfits his own warship (with money from
respectable businessmen, who back him) and gets paid by taking
enemy ships as prises. A privateer is chartered by a government.
A pirate gone leggit, if you squint a bit.

A spammer, matey, now, that's the ******* master of a slave ship
who kills and tortures 'cargo' and crew for sport. Arrr.

Seems to me you aaarr likely to get some disagreement on "squid"; for
some reason there aaarr a few misguided soles who claim squidity as a
virtue, much to be sought.

Your faithful caarrespondent,

Tube worm #39.
