:stupid1:

Did you really need to post this?

If so, then there are many things Offtopic I could post.

I thought our forums didnt have4 an offtopic section:stupid1:

 

[Buzz Bumble]

Well the description of this section does say "When all other forums fail - there's GD!", but I did also forget to put "[Off Topic]" in the subject title.

Of course, if you don't like singing "Yo ho and bottles of rum" then you could always go around saying things like "backup {wink}", "burn a CD" and "sell on eBay".

Arrrghh matey! There be pirates in the Star Wars universe. Han Solo was considered a pirate by some, although I don't think he actually did any pirating or believed in it.

Hmmm ... for some peculiar reason none of the clickable bits on that page work: no radio buttons, no pop-up menus, not even any links ... even the scrollbar for the frame is strange.

Edit: I got it to work in Netscape:

Your pirate name is:

Bloody Morty Rackham

Every pirate lives for something different. For some, it's the open sea. For others (the masochists), it's the food. For you, it's definitely the fighting. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

I found this too, but it's too late to use it.

Captain John Rackham
