Dave Barry came up with the idea that every year on Sept 19 that people should talk like a pirate.

For the last seven or eight years or so I have been sending my daughters, now both in their early 20's, the lamest pirate jokes on the 19th. Every hour or two, all day long, they get a text with one from a list I compile in the weeks beforehand. I have had their friends ask to be put on the list but I have kept it just between us.
Finding good (bad really) pirate jokes is not that easy as too many of them are childish. Does the hive have any that can send my way.
Thanks!!!
This only works for TV watchers of a certain age:
"Have you ever tasted semen, Billy?"
"No, Captain Hindgrinder."
What's a pirates favorite letter?
(wait for person to say R)
you would think it was R, but it's actually the C.
maybe that works better in person. ;)

'Tis be the sea.
alternately: Pirates cannot read or write.
A pirate walks into a bar. He has a steering wheel on his belt buckle.
The bartender says: " what's with the steering wheel on your belt buckle?"
The Pirate replies "Arr, it's drivin' me nuts"

This one is really "irish 239 bean soup", but could be converted:
Why does pirate 239 bean soup only have 239 beans?
Because if it had one more it would be two-faRRRRRRRty

The X is where the treasure is, but true pirate aficionados know it is really the I, because they always say it twice. "Aye aye matey!"

Why does everyone think Jack Sparrow is a real pirate?
He's not, because he clearly has two eyes, two hands, two legs, and two names.
