Pirate English and the Interwebs

You may or may not be familiar with the Facebook language feature called ‘Pirate English’. It basically transforms your entire Facebook experience into a plunderin’ adventure full of rum and many hearties. Or wenches.
Actually, it really just confuses you for the first week until you get used to the apostrophes and the British-Texan sounding voice in your head that reads the Pirate parts to you.
The great thing about it is that you get to feel like you’re a real life seafaring pirate. There are the coolest alternatives for normal facebook terms. For example, instead of poking someone ye be skewerin’ yer mateys. Isn’t that amazing?!
Facebook refers to me as a wench on me profile. Arrr, how distasteful. But it be adorable.
(you may have to click on the picture to see it). I love it. Ahahahar!
Also, my computer is not very good at stealing Internet from other networks, so what I’m doing is getting a RocketStick (?) and what it does is it gives you a 3G network on your computer so you have Internet wherever you go (like the iPhone and so on).
So I will be able to post more frequently and on a better schedule instead of trying to put up two or more posts quite close together, I can post something new every couple of days or at least once a week.
Wooo!
On that exciting note (exciting for me, anyways) I will leave you. See you soon, darlings! *mwah, mwah!*
;)
