Re: Talk like a pirate day
i stated it more out of interested to be proven wrong and get to know if so. Not to be right.
before i say things just to be right i rather keep them for myself before others prove me wrong.

Re: Talk like a pirate day
I said "you'd be wrong" as in "you would be wrong if you supposed that" as opposed to "you are wrong". Just to point out that I wasn't being some condescending asshole. Delighted to help though.

Re: Talk like a pirate day
I find it rather disturbing that the first thing that comes to mind when I see "yar" is "yahwe".
Strange coincidence?
To put it in pirate speak, as to satisfy the terms of this thread...
"Yarhwe be."

Re: Talk like a pirate day
Someone actually organised this within the banking network in the UK. Its absoloutely moronic. They even had a "Guide to Pirate Speak" for talking to your colleagues.
I bet whoever thought up the idea was pissing themselves.

I'd completely forgotten about that.
I got it working and tried a while ago - for some reason it couldn't extract the bit you wanted because of the way it was made.
Sorry about that old chap.
Er I mean, avast.

Judging by the crowd on the bus today, I thought it was "talk like a loud annoying chav" day. I guess that's where I've been going wrong ;(
