Once you have done this, you will have earned your pirate flag. Or you can just go down to Long John Silvers, climb the flagpole, steal the flag, and hide in the Wendy's bathroom across the street until the heat dies down.
It's not really true that pirates where all uneducated, many of them were
well educated and becoming pirates in many cases was an act of revenge
against tyrannical governments that pushed people to far.
also many Jews became pirates as an act of revenge for the Spanish inquisition.
I admire the pirates of old they were ruthless many times yes but in many ways
they fought for their own freedom. Sorry I know this came out of nowhere it's
just that I love all things nautical and love learning about pirates.
