International Talk Like A Pirate Day

    I had a very tough day, and I happened to get a bottle of the Kraken yesterday. So, to relax tonight, I made a traditional pirate drink on a lark: bumbo!

    This is by far one of the best drinks I've ever had. It's like Cinnamon Toast and Bananas Foster had a cocktail baby. You need this drink in your life. A nice spiced rum will strip all the flavor from the cinnamon and leave you with a nice boozy blast of cinnamon punch at the back of your throat with each sip. Argh ARRRRRRRGH, motherfuckers!

    I have some rum. I shall try this tonight.

    EDIT: Tried it using Bacardi Gold. Too much for my pallet.

    Today in Berlin everyone is talking like a pirate. Why? Because yesterday's city vote gave the Pirate Party their first government seats in Germany with 8.5% of the vote. This is why I love living in Berlin!

    It has lead to some great pictures in the news, and scenes like this on TV:

    And the Greens will be the new coalition party with the SPD (center-left party), with "Wowi" our gay mayor. Berlin will probably remain a pretty cool place to live for some time.

    Luke are you allowed to vote there?

    Also, why can't the US pirate party win anything? Maybe we should start pushing it.
  • SailSail
    I don't think the Pirate Party is as high-profile in the US as it is in Europe.

    Let's all stop doing our other geeky projects, and work full-time on changing that shit. All geekeries will benefit from the windfall if we succeed. In any board game you gotta make your machine more efficient before you crank it.

    I'm registered to vote, but I was away for the vote, and I didn't feel like doing enough research in time to do a postal vote in advance.

    There is a Canadian political party called The Lemon Party. Seeing as I always go to Wikiped when looking up something terrible and gawdawful like Goatse, 2 Girls 1 Cup, etc., Lemon Party confused me for a while.

    If you google Pragmatic Rationalist, we're the 4th result.

    I describe my political position as that, or as a Skeptical Neo-technocrat, it's a toss up, really, depending on who I'm talking to.
