Like most of my flist - I was quite confused about the "Update Captain's Log" button on the update page - I almost didn't post this am. However, it finally makes sense...

When you go to your bio/profile page, there are listings like "mateys" and "Crew Member of". Apparently, in addition to being Hermione Granger's birthday, September 19 is "Talk Like a Pirate Day" - at least according to [livejournal.com profile] cincoflex, and the lj staff are having a laugh at our expense.

So, tankards of rum all around.... Enjoy your day, mateys.




ETA: recommended post by [livejournal.com profile] cleolinda. here.
Why? Because...

Some luckless dog lost his yardarm, went and plundered a new one, and now's lost that one, too. Or, as the lubbers marked it, "First penis transplant reversed after two weeks." Arrrrrrrrrrrr. That be... that be unfortunate.


... and more, including a link to find your pirate name.

My pirate name:

Arrrrgh me beauty, send the name [livejournal.com profile] lyssac to davy jones's locker! You will commandeer your ship as
Captain Jeannie
(Tisn't the prettiest nickname, tis a nickname none the less)
