Ahoy Mateys!


Be there anything more titillating than pirates? They be charming an naughty an perhaps a bit ROUGH. But they be rogue an they live by a CODE an it's a code fer RULEBREAKERS! Aye! I could be a pirate.

So fer the honor o' Talk Like a Pirate Day, I thought I'd share a thought er two on a few o' me favorite pirates...


Jack Be Nimble

and bendy in all exactly the right ways.... Then I never could resist a man in eyeliner. You know... Jack is dead sexy, but I really love him even more when he is insanely ridiculous—running from cannibals or doing bizarre escape moves.





To Be or Not to Be

Captain Shakespeare has such a hard decision to make... he has the Heart of a Pirate but he feels so PRETTY!!! Neil Gaiman's brainchild, BRILLIANTLY executed by De Niro in Stardust. People who've known me for a while know my soft spot for cross-dressers... especially rulebreaking cross-dressers who are now acting heroic. This character just makes me really happy.



Space Pirates R Us

Oh, Captain Mal... Malcolm Reynolds, Captain of the Serenity. Actually, the whole CAST of Firefly totally rocks, but I love Nathan Fillion and his self-deprecating charm. I've said it before and I will say it again. I could watch Fillion fold socks and be happy, but of all his roles, Mal is the best. (though when he's singing about his penis in Dr. Horrible's Sing-along Blog, that rocks, too) but no... Mal wins, hands down. I actually like his relationship with Kaylee best—it feels sibling like—no sexual tension but the full range of love to annoyance.


So those are me favorite pirates—Be sure to throw in a lot of Arrrrrrrs and Ahoys today!!!

Do you have any favorite pirates?

(Oh, and Happy Birthday, Hermione--we love you!)

Capt. Jack Sparrow is classic, anyone would have a hard time beating him. Errol Flynn did a pretty good pirate a LONG time ago and WOW Nathan has a nice butt :)

Siv Maria's blog, Been there, done that...

Eye-liner, cross-dressing, and naked pirate butts. I'm in. Arghhh,

Stacy Gail said...

*High fives Alex* You beat me to it, dude. Dread Pirate Roberts/Wesley will always be the pirate of my heart!

Though Nakey Mal, who's always aiming to misbehave, is a close second. :D

Happy Talk Like A Pirate Day, ye Naked Wench!

Captain Jack Black.

Although, I don't know what this says about me, but every time I *think* about pirates, or watch a show, ore read a book, I think about body odor. How they must stink because there aren't any showers, and how the water on the ship has to be used for drinking, and it wouldn't be as sexy as the books make it out to be because he'd have bad breath...

I think I might have a case of the cynicals.

Captain Jack Sparrow - yes, please.
naked tart strikes again :)

I'm with you - I LOVE Fillion as Mal. And thank you for that still image ;)

Trisha said...

I have never seen Stardust, even though a friend raves about it. So I gotta see it... and maybe that naked pirate would be nice to see too.
