Yar, we missed it.
Well, I often pirate files online, and I spoke like I usually do today, so technically I talked like a pirate.
I didn't miss it...
If you use Meebo to chat, you can type in "pirateon" or "pirateoff" to use the english to pirate translator... translates everything you say and recieve into pirate.
for example:
If ye use Meebo t' chat, ye can type in "buccaneer on" or "buccaneer off" t' use th' english t' buccaneer translator... translates everything ye say and recieve into buccaneer, and a bottle of rum!
I have never "celebrated" it due to never remembering it.
I marked it on my Rainlendar because I wanted the Pirate Day badge in Saints Row 2!
i went to my friends pirate day poker party and he was the only one dressed as a pirate lol
