[HuckleB]

Fill in the blank.

I have a couple choice words of my own.

[Orrex]

1. scallywag

[HuckleB]

3. Uh, dude. Do you know what a scallywag is?

It's got nothing to do with pirates, at least nothing to do with non-movie pirates.

And, uh, actually it's a good thing, IMO.

1. scalawag
1. A person who is known to be a treacherous lying son-of-a-bitch, and usually smells bad.
2. A term of endearment used by pirates.

6. That 2.1 is actually the origination of the term, and where it was used most commonly.

Your 1. ... is just pop culture BS.

That's kind of important.

[Orrex]

5. You mean there are non-movie pirates?

Who knew?

[HuckleB]

7. Yeah, well, there are those Somalians.

I just hate pirate crap!

Not as much as anti-vaxers.

But I hate pirate crap!

Have I made myself clear?

(chorus)
Oh little girl
in that case I
don't want no part
I do believe that
that would only
break my heart
Oh, but if you feel
like loving me
if you got the notion
I'm seekin' those c's in o-c-c-c-c-c-c-eans
Said, if you feel like giving me
a lifetime of devotion
I'm seekin' those c's in o-c-c-c-c-c-c-eans
