Would you be a pirate?
 

Piracy is back ... so what do you think? Would it be cool to be a pirate?











Energy: Piracy has always been a shipping hazard, but Somalia's buccaneers have taken it up a notch. Their hijacking of a supertanker Monday shows how vulnerable oil supplies are and how critical it is to stop them.

I had to say no... there just aren't enough girl pirates, and hopping aboard oil tankers and holding the crew for ransom just doesn't seem all that fun.

too much like Mad Max... it was cool movie, but not enough of the females for me to want to live in that world

Sure why not I like to rape and pillage with the best of them.

Plus being a female Pirate I think would be cool.

i was ust fighting piracy off the coast of africa for the past few months and i secretly wanted to join them...untill we seen em...nothing like jack sparrow...imma hafta kick it old skool pirate only...they were all kinda dirt baggy n shit...like i realize being a pirate is a demanding career...but shower motha fucka...

If I can't shower I might have to take my vote back.

If I could Rape, plunder and shower I would still want to be a pirate.

Since you'd be surrounded by water most of the time, I think bathing would at least be an option even if you had to use salt water.

Nope. The glory days of piracy are over. You can't have that kind of lifestyle in these modern days.

ninja.

Of course it would be cool to be a pirate. But C'MON!!!! A supertanker?!?!? Thats a bit much even for modern pirates with rocket launchers and machine guns. I mean, what the hell you going to do with it when you catch it? It's like a dog chasing a car. Stick to yachts and small cargo boats and shit. Alot easier to unload.

LOL Dina, that was my first thought.... sure Id be a pirate, but I get to have soap right?
