Talk Like a Pirate

Today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day. In honor of this occasion, I will present a short list of  my favorite pirate words and phrases for you to use. I use some of these year-round.

• Avast ye! means pay attention!
• Hornswaggle means "to cheat"
• Cackle fruit are chicken eggs
• Blimey! is something said when one is in a state of surprise
• Scallywag is a name that is used as an insult to someone
• Son of a biscuit eater is another insult

That's pretty much it for today.
