The Pirate Code
A pirate does not ask for directions. Pirates are never lost, they
just haven't found what they are looking for yet.
Parrots are the preferred pirate companion. Monkeys are an
acceptable substitute, unless they fling their feces at people.
Then they are an awesome substitute.
When fishing, a pirate uses either a sword, a knife, or his bare
hands. Use of a hook is only acceptable in the event the pirate is
missing a hand.
Pirates shall always wear boots, except in the case of a peg leg.
Then one boot is acceptable. Flip-flops are right out.
Pirates do not cry, except in the case of the loss of a shipload of
rum.
When describing the size of a treasure, a pirate is required to
exaggerate by at least 130%. Flowers are not treasure under any
circumstances, unless said flowers are made out of gold.
