Real Pirates

Whereas fictional pirates are fun for kids and occasionally kind of sexy despite stupid facial hair and general dirtiness, real pirates are actual lame criminals who hold boats and people hostage and drive up the cost of shipping things. They are also a bit baffling, making the whole world question, why doesn't someone drive a lot of boats/submarines/stealth bombers over there to the Indian Ocean and blow their asses up? (Well, according to this handy Q&A they are hard to find or something.) In sum, if your citizens are in such dire straights that they start resorting to PIRACY you may need to think about cleaning up your damn country.

(Crappy, but still gets a bit of credit for making the newspeople talk about something other than Britany Spears.)

I wonder how long Peter Pan would last in Somalia.

Why couldn't the pirate stop thinking about sailing?

He had ship for brains.
