Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Depends really. If you're a pirate then I don't see the problem. If you're not a pirate then why bother? Either way I don't care as it doesn't hurt me. Pirates used to have a gold earring so that if they bodies were washed up on shore it would be enough to pay for a proper burial. Pirates rock . I didn't know about the ear ring thing with Pirates, It'd be good if its true lol . Have you seen Vic Reeves Rogues gallery? He done episode on Black Beard, he was one serious fella lol.
