Ninja or Pirate?

[the_bird]

I'm referring to the "polygamy" post from a few months back - I'm pretty sure that was you. Apologies if not (meant no harm).

 

[dancingbarefoot]

Oh, well I didn't start that, just responded. 'sides, a threesome doesn't have to mean there's any guy-on-guy action.

 

[Orpheus]

We're not talking about this pirate are we?

 

[chillHayze]

Yaaaarrrr Harrrr Harrr!! Pirate all the way. Rum and sea wenches > water and geishas.

 

[D*Bo]

So I go into the auto parts store the other day.
I'm standing at the counter while the guy is running down some stuff for me when this pirate walks in. I had to take a second look. One, because he was a pirate, and two, because he had a steering wheel hanging from his belt.
Me and the guy next to me turn and look at eachother a little perplexed.
So the pirate walks up and down a few isles. On his way back towards the counter I decide I just can't take it anymore, I have to ask.
So I say "Hey, pirate", he looks up.
"You know you have a steeringwheel hanging off your belt"?
And he responds "Arrrrr... it's driving me nuts".

 

[Jaybird]

Pirates get drunk, rabble rouse and go a wenching.

Ninja's sit for hours in a kneeling fashion meditiating.

Pirates are cool, ninjas are little columbine black wearing neards with cool swords.

Ok... so now that we all know what we would want to be if we were able to be a pirate or ninja character.

So what are you in real life?

Are you a Pirate? No, I hope nobody carries out a pirate life. However, certain aspects of Pirates can certainly be seen in people. They are risky... take chances.... sleep around perhaps (for this specific aspect you can ceertainly use your before marrage personality for all us married folks)... drink possibly to the point where they are a bit more out of control... Do they plan ahead? Please add anyting you like here to show your similarity to a Pirate.

Are you a Ninja (it seems that people are making similarities to a Samari here)? What are they... quiet..... possibly underminding (as in having an agenda without people generally knowing about it)... possibly religious or spiritual (if not formal, informal certainly).... drink, but certainly keeping a sense of control... they possibly take risks but generally the risk probablility are known... Plan ahead to specifics more then likely... Please add anything you like here to show your similarity to a Ninja.

Excellent question.

Decisions relating to money and relationships I calculate and heavily weight alternatives. I try to keep a balance of all things because I believe it is important. However, like a pirate I tend to think about my own well being over others sometimes. That seems to fade with age. So I would say I lay about 70% ninja, 30% pirate in real life.

Yarrr Harr, haven't heard that in a while! Good one!

First time I heard that I was giggling for hours. Just break out laughing for no appearant reason (to everyone else). Just one of those ones that struck me as funny. i just have to say the punch line to a friend and he'll be laughing for hours. Kind of corny, but it gets mee just right.

 

[Dude]

So what are you in real life?

Pirate. No question. I've done some very bad things in my life.

 

[teh_pelt]

IRL ninja. well a ninja with beer.

 

[Chairman Cheyco]

Can't we all just get along?

 

[Cap'n Jewbeard]

In real life, I prowl the seas, searching for Booty... and Booty.

View, if ye dare, my article on WikiHow.com (I was really, really bored- like I say, it gets mighty lonely on the high seas)

How to: Release the Pirate Within

Nuff Said!! :cross:

Finally found this shirt at GenCon this weekend, I was a very happy Geek!

 

[1ill_Biscuit]

Ninja's don't have a holiday... Pirates, on the other hand

 

[Orpheus]

It's been settled once and for all, and you can see it with your own eyes.

The winner may surprise you...

The winner may surprise you...

What surprises me is that this debate has been raging for 3 years. (check the date stamp)

Everyone knows the berserker mentality of the Pirate will overwhelm the crafty sissiness of the Ninja every time....

And for the record, Pirate here. I obliterate my competition with quality every single day.

Hmm.... 3 years would be a bit long for this thread....it started a month or so after I joined.

My bad, I wasn't clear. I meant the date stamp on the video.

Pirates get to hang out with the "Flying Spaghetti Monster" and visit the stripper factory and the beer volcanoe! Have you been touched by His noodly appendage?

 

[the_bird]

You know, it wasn't "The Dread Ninja Roberts"...

 

[Cregar]

I take being a pirate... you get "Keira Knightley"

Aaarrrrggggg

 

[chillHayze]

[Denny's Evil Concoctions]

I gotta go with ninja. From what I've read of pirate life, it's not nearly as romantic as Hollywood makes it out to be. Think months (or more) at sea with no company but the unshowered man whose bunk is but inches from your face. The fresh food was gone long ago so now you only get weevle infested biscuits and maybe some dried meat if you're lucky. You're vitamin C deficient so you're starting to lose teeth due to scurvy. Yeah, there's plenty of rum and beer but that's only because fresh water doesn't last. So you drink in the sun all day and wake up the next morning with the taste of cat piss in your mouth because you've been on a 3 month drinking binge and haven't brushed your teeth once. All you want is one glass of clean water to rinse things out a bit . . . you finally work up the nerve to complain to the captain and he has you flogged for it.

A ninja, on the other hand, could live any lifestyle he chooses. Any man who stands in his way is merely shuriken fodder. If you want to drink rum or beer all day you simply have to kill a man with a decent supply of rum or beer. Your incredible skill in all things deceiving ensure that you'll never be caught.

AHU

that's why the choice is clear as coors for me.

You know, it wasn't "The Dread Ninja Roberts"...

touche!
