My analysis of drunks sig (cause i love it LOADS!)

[allied56]

Ok, if we increase the number of pirates in the world we would stop global warming, this is due to the fact that they dont use as much fuel since they have huge ships, they also rob feul from other people which will also decrese the amout of global warming, after looking at the graph its so obvious, why dont scientists realise this, drunk has made a huge breakthrough its just no one has realised this!

[Polaris]

does that graph take into account software pirates or no?
software pirates arent quite as cool as sea pirates. why? is it because they lack a sword? booty (that can go two ways)? a ship? hmmmm.
as per karma: discuss!

[Juggalo]

Pirates > Ninjas. :nod:

[Quietus]

(this should probably be in spam) :)

The world would be a much better place with more pirates around. If it helps out global warming then sure, why not. I personally think the world could use a little heatin... it gets colder than hell here.

[Juggalo]

I like the cold. :(

[Polaris]

it gets colder than hell here.
think about that for a minute... I'm pretty sure Ecuador is colder than hell, too

[Quietus]

Eh, Hell could actually be a frozen wasteland. No one knows for sure. :)

[Polaris]

hm. send a post card when you get there, k?

[Juggalo]

No Problem. :up:

[Burning]

Pirates > Ninjas. :nod:

nah ninjas have got that whole stealthiness going for them. Not to mention, they've got throwing stars!!!

[Juggalo]

Pirates don't need stealth, they've got brute force, and cannons, and pistols, and explosives, and lots of pirate friends.

unless you count a tougue that's so sharp it can draw blood... :D


booty (that can go two ways)?
they totally have booty...

a ship? hmmmm.
Well... does a duel core system with two cable modems linked into it and a terrabyte of memory count?... because that's sort of required hardware...
as per karma: discuss!
I'd just like to point out, that I'm cool regardless. ;)
============================================

Well, actually pirates do have stealth and deception. They commonly attacked in the middle of the night if it gave them an advantage... and they typically pretend to be anything but pirates. I don't think pirates raised the skull and crossbones... or at least, I think that was the exception. Pirates would be more likely to fly friendly colors, then come along side the victim ship. When they got along side her, they'd storm the ship and avoid all that chasing and shooting nonsense.


Remember this about pirates... what they really want is the booty... they really could give two shits for the flag, the guns, or the swords. Want they want is to be rich.


Pirates also contray to popular culture tended to be very well dressed, well fed, well kept, and free of deforming scars. It was the various navy's that had ships full of dirty, poorly dressed, and scared crew members... because the pirates were interested in getting fat sacks of gold and the navy's were interested in fighting. Further, pirate ships tended to be democratic in their power structure. That is to say the captain was elected and for his added responsibility tended to recieve no more then a double share. Again, it was the navy vessels that were actually known for iron power structures that resulted in walking the plank or death should you question the will of the captain. Execution was ecouraged practive amoungst most navies at the time for any contradiction of authority. On a pirate ship contradition was a natural part of life that was kept under control because everyone generally liked who was captain. You can't piss your crew off if you're a pirate because you count upon them to keep your secrets when you enter port to sell your goods. If they're terrified of you, then one of them will sell you out to the local authories and you'll get strung up before sunset.


Gold = fat and happy
Fighting = scarred for life or dead.

Pirates take the easy pickings, live it up, and play nice with their own people... kind of cool...

[Quietus]

Weren't many pirate ships/crews former military ships/crews who deserted to pursue riches?

[Cleary]

LOL! only karma could write so much about this thread.

[Blacksand]

My sig is better.

[Cleary]

LOL! that looks so real aswell!... tell me you didnt really re-arrange the letters of a church bill board?

[Blacksand]

Uhm, no.

[DrunkenUno]

blacksands sig owns

[Juggalo]

:lol: I like that church thing.

*looks down at sig*

:nod:

[amir]

how you get them like that??
dnt matta i know lol

[Karmashock]

Not that I know of... typically a crew that munitied would make harbor as quickly as possible and scatter. The ship would incriminate you. Another thing they could do is just say that the senor command staff all died for some obscure reason.... then make port and request a new captain.


What you might be doing is confusing privateers with pirates. Privateers were given the right by one government to hunt, loot, and destroy the ships of another government. They're neither pirates nor the navy. They could safely enter friendly harbors and sell their swag... their power structures were more similar to the navy's and their crew's less wealthy... but not as strict as the navy or as poor either. Privateers are really kind of a cross between a pirate and the navy.

[allied56]

i made this thread as a non serious thing, but the question now springs to mind
Karma is there one topic in this world that you couldnt write a essay on?

[Karmashock]

probably not...

[Justice]

Karma ... write me an essay describing your plans to produce a feasible contraption that would propel an object with mass past the speed of light without the use of any naturally occuring phenomenon (wormholes, quasars, etc.)

cheers, and

Well, I don't know if those are logical conditions. First, I'm not an engineer and therefore unable to declare a given contraption of any kind as feasible. Second, you're requiring innovations that our whole civilization will probably not figure out for centuries, millenia, or ever. Third, would an artifical wormhole or point singularity count as a natural phenomenon? If so, then it might not be possible under any conditions or any period of time to create such a device.

Effectively, what you have done is attempted to counter my declaration that I could probably write an essay on anything by challenging me to invent something that is well outside my capability. This is not a challenge to my former boast. An essay upon a topic does not require such things...


But this display frankly bores me regardless... may you choke on trout.


Love and peace, Karmashock.

How about an essay on how much Cowboy Bebop TRULY KICKS ASS!!!

[Karmashock]

... maybe later...

[Quietus]

Blackbeard was born as Edward Thatch (aka Teach) in London or Bristol sometime before 1690. Little is known of his early life. It is generally assumed that he started his career as a privateer, a sort of government-sanctioned at-sea rebel, employed by Queen Anne in her war with the French, Spanish or any other enemy of the crown. When Queen Anne's War ended perhaps before then, Thatch pursued pirating, where he joined with Benjamin Hornigold, another privateer-turned-pirate.

Early accounts place Blackbeard at popular pirate rendezvous spots such as Providence, the Delaware Capes and St. Vincent, near Barbados. It was in St. Vincent that the French ship La Concorde with a cargo of slave was captured by Hornigold and Thatch. For his role in capturing the ship, Thatch was given her command and thereafter he named her Queen Anne's Revenge. Hornigold retired shortly afterwards, taking advantage of the King's pardon of all pirate crimes in 1717.

So yea, I was confusing them with Privateers.

Karma is there one topic in this world that you couldnt write a essay on?
probably not...

Considering that the theoretically implications of faster-than-light travel are functionally a part of this world, and seeing as its physics is entirely within the realm of our existence, you cannot write an essay on it because you "don't have the proper expertise" to do it. It may be theoretical, yes, but the TOPIC does exist.

If this topic that does exist in the world is "well outside your capability," then effectively I have disproven that you are a know-it-all who can write an essay on anything.

;)

You, sir, are disproven using counterexample.


cheers, and

you didn't provide a topic, it was an long list of unattainable conditions. I can write ABOUT faster then light travel, I just have no way of proving any design without about three trillion dollars and about 200 years.

But I can certainly WRITE about the topic. I just can't ensure you that I am correct about anything.

So, you didn't disprove anything because your challenge had little to do with my boast.... dolt.

Love and peace, Karmashock.

[Justice]

write me an essay describing your plans to produce a feasible contraption

I merely asked you to describe how you would go about designing such a contraption ... notice the intentional vague writing such that you could say whether this contraption was possible or not. "To describe a plan" means you can write about "it's possible" or "it's not possible."

If that's out of your league ...

I can write ABOUT faster then light travel, I just have no way of proving any design

I never asked you to prove anything, I merely asked you to discuss your plans (or lack of plans thereof). Basically, I AM asking you to write about faster than light travel ...

You know, sometimes it's just ok to be wrong.
