Facebook treasure

I’ve told everyone I can think of, but have to post as it’s just TOO much fun!
Did you know you can change your Facebook language to Pirate? No kidding!
2 easy clicks:
~ Go to the bottom of the FB page and click on the link that says ‘English’.
~Then click on ‘English (Pirate)beta’ and hold on!
Is that not a hoot?! I had no idea there were that many Pirates words! All I knew were Booty and Argh!
I have to admit, I’ve had to go back and forth a few times to try to understand what FB is talking about. For example, it told me I had 3 grog fests sighted from the Crow’s Nest. Excuse me?! Where I come from that’s inappropriate!
Some other fun ones:
Writing on someone’s wall = Making a mark on their parchment
Videos = Bewitched Portraits
Married = Anchored
Single = Marrooned
As if Facebook doesn’t suck up enough of my time, now I talk funny!
Belay that talk! If ye wench wish to speak pirate, and no face Jack Ketch, see this site for pirate terms: http://www.tide-mark.com/pirate_dict.html
Fairwinds to ye!
Oh I know, with twittering and blogging and FBing, the time suck is endless but with pirate-talk capability, now THAT I’ve gotta try.
Hope you’re well, my friend.
So nice to see you again! I think I’ll be on my way over to FB and see what I can do about that. (My kids argue over being a pirate and a ninja. Do you think if I go pirate, they’ll think I’m taking sides?
The pirate language is hilarious! All of my facebook friends have been doing that, too.
It’s so much fun!
From one wench to another… ARGHHHH!
